SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
If the chain lubrication is not working: � Check that the oil channel in the bar is not obstructed. Clean if necessary. Check the chain daily for:
Checking wear on cutting equipment
�
Check that the groove in the edge of the bar is clean. Clean if necessary.
� � �
Visible cracks in rivets and links. Whether the chain is stiff. Whether rivets and links are badly worn.
We recommend you compare the existing chain with a new chain to decide how badly the existing chain is worn. � Check that the bar tip sprocket turns freely and that the lubricating hole in the tip sprocket is not blocked. Clean and lubricate if necessary.
When the length of the cutting teeth has worn down to only 4 mm the chain must be replaced.
