6. Fitting the cutter bar and the chaine
Remove the chain wheel cover (Item J) by undoing the fastening nut (Item 1). Lay the chain (Item F) as
shown into the groove which runs around the cutter bar (Item E).
Note the alignment of the chain teeth. Insert the cutter bar as shown in below figure into the mount at the
gear unit.
Place the chain round the chain wheel (Item H). Make sure that the teeth of the chain engage securely in
the chain wheel. The cutter bar must be hooked into the chain tensioning bolt (Item G).
Fit the chain wheel cover
Important! Do not fully tighten the fastening screw until after you have adjusted the chain tension.

Notes on tensioning the chain:
The chain must be properly tensioned to ensure safe operation. When the saw chain can be raised by
around 2 mm in the middle of the cutter bar, you know that the chain tension is ideal. During cutting, the
temperature of the chain rises and its length changes. It is important therefore to check the chain tension at
least every 10 minutes and to adjust it again as required. This applies in particular to new saw chains. When
you have fi nished working, slacken the chain again as it will shorten when it cools down. This will help to
prevent damage tothe chain.

- The design of the petrol brush cutter allows for operation only at the right side of the user's body.
- Keep the petrol brush cutter firmly with both hands on the handles.
- Always make sure that the cutting tool continues to rotate briefly after the throttle has been
released.
- Always so that the cutting tool no longer turns in a proper engine idle not press down the throttle.
- Always work with high speed so you have the best cutting results.
- Poke when working on a stone or a tree, turn off the engine and remove the spark plug then
examine the petrol brush cutter for damage.
- Caution: Always be extra careful when working in difficult terrain and slopes. Cut tall grass
gradually soas not to overload the unit.
- Always wear safety glasses and hearing protection and a safety helmet.
To minimize the risk of accidents by use of the cutting blade, take note of following points:
- Never cut shrubbery or wood whose diameter is larger than 2 cm.
- Avoid contact with metal bodies, stones, etc.
- Periodically check the cutting blade for damages. Never continue to use a damaged cutting blade.
- When the cutting blade becomes apparently blunt, it must be sharpened according to instructions.
When the cutting blade is apparently out of balance, it must be replaced.
Automatic thread trimming
The petrol cutting blade is delivered with a filled line cassette.This line will wear out during work. To
feed new line, forcefully press the head of the line cassette onto the ground while the engine is
running at working speed. The line is automatically fed due to centrifugal force.The knife at the line
guard will shorten the trimming line to the correct length. Run the trim line approach cautiously to
an obstacle and cut with the tip of the line around the obstacle.
17
Working with pole saw
Keep both hands well with the device during the cutting process and pay you up to an equilibrium
position and a good level.
- Never try to use your tool with one hand. The loss of control of your tool can cause serious injury or
death. Never work on a ladder, a tree branch or other unstable surfaces.
- Never cut with the upper edge or the tip of the cutter bar.
- Make sure that the chain tension is always correctly adjusted.
- Practice for guiding the device slight pressure, but you do not overload the motor.
Clear the work area before cutting interfering branches and undergrowth. Then you create a retreat
area, far from the spot where the cut branches fall on, and remove any obstacles there. Keep the
work area clean, remove the cut branches immediately. Pay attention to your point, wind direction and
the possible direction of fall of the branches. Be prepared that fallen branches can strike back. Place
all other tools and equipment at a safe distance from the branches to be cut, but not in the retreat
area.
18
The most common effects are:
- setback
- recoil,
- retreat
Kickback
The setback can occur when the moving saw chain meets at the upper quarter of the guide rail on a
solid object or is pinched.
The cutting force exerted on the chain from the saw, a rotational force in the opposite direction to the
chain travel. This leads to an upward movement of the guide rail.
Avoid kickback
The best protection is to avoid situations that lead to setbacks.
1. Keep the position of the upper guide rail always in mind.
2. Leave this place never come into contact with an object. Cut anything with it. Be especially careful
near wire fences and cutting small, hard knots, in which the chain can easily pinch.
3. Cut only one branch at a time.
Withdrawal
The withdrawal occurs when the chain on the underside of the bar suddenly stuck because it is
jammed or encounters a foreign object in the wood. The chain then pulls the saw forward. The
withdrawal often happens when the chain is not running at full speed when in contact with the wood.
Avoid withdrawal
Be aware of the forces and situations that can lead to jamming of the chain on the underside of
the bar.
Always start with running at full speed chain to cut.
Recoil
The recoil occurs when the chain on top of rail suddenly stuck because it is jammed or encounters a
foreign object in the wood. The chain can jerkily hold the saw against the operator. Rebounds happen
often if the top rail is used for cutting.
Avoid recoil
Be aware of the forces and situations that can lead to jamming of the chain on top of rail.
Do not cut more than one branch at a time.
Do not tilt the rail to the side when you pull them out of a cutting gap, since the chain could get caught
otherwise.

Change and clean the spark plug
-Periodically remove and clean the spark plug using a metal brush to get rid of any
deposits.
-Check and reset the correct distance between the electrodes.
-Replace the spark plug and fasten it firmly using the supplied wrench.
-The spark plug must be replaced with one with the same characteristics
whenever the electrodes have burnt or the insulation has worn, and in
any case every 100 working hours.
IMPORTANT Cleaning the air filter is essential to guarantee the efficiency and duration of
the machine. Do not work with a damaged filter or without a filter, as this could permanently
damage the engine. It must be cleaned after every 12 working hours.
Warning!
Never run the engine without the air filter element installed.
22
SHARPENING THE LINE CUTTING KNIFE
Remove the line cutting knife (1) from the guard (2) by unscrewing the screws (3).
Fix the line cutting knife in a vice and sharpen it using a flat file, being careful to retain
the original cutting angle.
Refit the knife on the guard.

A = filing angle
B = the angle of the side plate
23
The angle must also be maintained for all knives.
For irregular angles, the chain is run irregularly, wear quickly and break down prematurely.
Since these requirements can only be met with sufficient and regular exercise:
- A File Holder must be used when sharpening the saw chain by hand. The correct filing angle
marked on it.
- Hold the file horizontally (at a right angle to the guide rail) and file according to the angle mark on
the file holder. Support the file holder on the top plate and depth gauge.
- File down. The knife is always from the inside to the outside
- The file sharpens only in forward motion. Lift it off in the backward motion.
- Do not touch the dynamic links with the file.
- Turn the file regularly continue to avoid a onesided wear.
- Remove to remove a piece of hard wood, bones raw edges.
All knives must have the same length, otherwise they will also vary. As a result, the chain is irregular
and it increases the risk of going broke.
