Adjust The Chain Tension; Sharpen The Cutters - GreenWorks Pro CSB403 Manuel D'opérateur

EN
If you start the chain saw with a new chain, have a test for
2-3 minutes. A new chain gets longer after the first use,
examine the tension and tighten the chain if necessary.
11.2

ADJUST THE CHAIN TENSION

The more you use a chain the longer it becomes. It is
therefore important to adjust the chain regularly to take up the
slack.
Tension the chain so that it can only just be pulled away from
the bar at its centre point.
A slack chain may jump off and cause serious or even fatal
injury.
Wear protective gloves if you touch the chain, bar or areas
around the chain.
1. Stop the machine.
2. Loosen the lock nuts with the wrench.
It is not necessary to remove the chain cover to adjust the
chain tension.
3. Turn the chain adjustment screw clockwise to increase
the chain tension.
4. Turn the chain adjustment screw counterclockwise to
decrease the chain tension.
5. When the chain is at the wanted tension, tighten the lock
nuts.

SHARPEN THE CUTTERS

Sharpen the cutters if it is not easy for the chain to go into the
wood.
We recommend that a service center, which has an electric
sharpener, perform important sharpening work.
1. Tensioning chain.
2. Sharpen the cutters corner with a 5/32 in. (4 mm)
diameter round file .
3. Sharpen the top plate, side plate and depth gauge with a
flat file.
4. File all the cutters to the specified angles and the same
length.
