1. CHECKS DURING WORK
• Checking the chain tension
The chain tends to stretch gradually as you work,
so you need to check its tension frequently.
IMPORTANT
During the first period of use
(or after replacing the chain), it must be checked
more frequently due to settling of the chain.
WARNING!
Never work with the chain
loose, as it can be hazardous if the chain slips
out of its guides.
To adjust the chain tension, follow the instructions
in Chapter 5.5.
• Checking the oil delivery
IMPORTANT
Never use the machine with-
out lubrication! The oil tank may get almost empty
every time the fuel runs out. Make sure you top up
the oil tank every time you refuel the chain-saw.
WARNING!
Make sure the bar and the
chain are in place when you check the oil de-
livery.
Start the engine, keep it running at medium power
and check if the chain oil is delivered as shown in
the figure (Fig. 11).
You can adjust the chain oil flow using a screw-
driver on the adjuster screw (1 or 1a) of the oiler,
which is on the bottom of the machine (Fig. 11).
2. DIRECTIONS FOR USE AND CUTTING
TECHNIQUES
Before felling or delimbing for the first time, prac-
tise sawing logs on the ground or on trestles, so
that you can get familiar with the machine and the
most suitable sawing techniques.
WARNING!
Stop the engine immedi-
ately if the chain stops during sawing. Be wa re
of kickback, which can occur if the bar con-
tacts an obstacle.
Kickback occurs when the tip of the chain
co mes in contact with an object or when the
wood contracts and jams the chain during sa-
wing.
All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com
This contact with the tip of the chain can cau se
a rapid backward motion, pushing the gui de
bar up and towards the operator. This also
hap pens when the chain is jammed along the
up per part of the bar. In both cases, kickback
can cause the operator to lose control of the
chain-saw, leading to serious consequences.

protective gloves and remove the obstacle.
If the chain must be removed, follow the in-
structions in the chapter dedicated to chain-

having removed the obstacle and reassem-
bled the chain. If you notice vibrations or
mechanical noises, stop working and con-
