– Clean the brake mechanism periodically (without disassembling it) and control the wear of the band visually. • PERIODICALLY: It is important to clean the saw thoroughly particularly around cylinder fins to avoid overheating of the engine. • LONG STORAGE: Empty fuel and run engine until dry. I. Safety chain brake Your chain saw is fitted with a safety chainbrake designed to stop the chain in milliseconds in case of kickback. Always hold the saw firmly in both hands. The chain brake does not provide a total protection if the machine is used without taking the necessary precautions and maintenances. The chain brake is intended to engage automatically in case of kickback. The chain brake can also be engaged manually by pushing the chain brake lever forwards.The manual use of the chain brake is recommended only at idle. Always test the chain brake before using your saw. Do this by engaging the brake at idle (see below). Always release the brake before starting. Kickback may occur if the end of the bar (see illustrated angle) touches any solid object. Never attempt to start a cut with the end of the bar. Kickback is a violent upward and rearward movement of the bar and may cause you to lose control of the machine. Therefore you should avoid starting a cut with this part of the bar. Always keep a firm grip on the saw with both hands because, in case of kickback, it is the contact of the left hand with the brake lever which will help to engage the brake. CHAIN BRAKE TESTING: 1 The chain brake (A) is disengaged when brake lever is pulled back and locked(chain can move). 2 The chain brake (A) is engaged when brake lever is in the position (chain cannot rotate).

It should never be removed. L. Chain sharpening 1 Chain cutter teeth can be sharpened with a round file, as follows: CHAIN FILE MP 370 GLX 5/32” PM 320 GX 3/16” The exact chain type is marked on the bottom half of the drive link which runs inside the bar groove. Filing can be made easier by also using a file holder. The chain can remain fitted on the bar during sharpening. Before commencing, the chain should be tensioned correctly and the chain brake should be activated to prevent the chain from moving. 2 To obtain a correct sharpening the file must be carefully held to maintain 3 basic angles: – “A” Top angle 30° - 35° – “B” External, side angle 85° - 90° – “C” Internal, side angle 60° File in one direction only, from the “inside” of the cutter tooth towards the “outside”. Do not allow the file to touch the chain as you bring it back to re-position it. Each cutter tooth should be filed with the...
