Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures a long effective life for the tool.
We recommend you make the following checks on a regular
basis.
Warning! Before performing any maintenance on power tools:
Switch off and disconnect the tool from the mains supply.
u
Oil level
The level in the reservoir should not be allowed to fall below
a quarter full.
Saw chain and guide bar
After every few hours of use and before storage, remove
u
the guide bar (7) and the saw chain (6) and clean them
thoroughly.
Make sure that the guard is clean and free from debris.
u
Oil sprocket nose and chain bar via the sprocket lubrica-
u
tion holes (21) (fig. E). This ensures an even distribution of
wear around the guide bar rails.
Saw chain sharpening
If you are to get the best possible performance from the tool it
is important to keep the teeth of the saw chain sharp.
Guidance for this procedure is found on the sharpener pack-
age.
Replacing worn out saw chains
Replacement saw chains are available through retailers or
Black & Decker service agents. Always use genuine spare
parts.
Saw chain sharpness
The saw chain cutters will blunt immediately if they touch the
ground or a nail while cutting.
Saw chain tension
Regularly check the saw chain tension.
What to do if your chainsaw needs repair.
Your chainsaw is manufactured in accordance with the rel-
evant safety requirements. Repairs should only be carried out
by a qualified person using original spare parts otherwise this
may result in considerable danger to the user. We recommend
you keep this user manual in a safe place.
