8.3 Sharpening the saw chain
Effective working with the chainsaw is only possible if
the saw chain is in good condition and sharp. This
also reduces the risk of kickback.
The saw chain can be re-sharpened by any dealer. Do
not attempt to sharpen the saw chain yourself unless
you have the necessary special tools and experience.
9. Cleaning and storing
앬 Regularly clean the clamping mechanism by
blowing it out with compressed air or cleaning it
with a brush. Do not use tools for cleaning.
앬 Keep the handles free of grease so that you can
maintain a firm grip.
앬 Clean the device as required with a damp cloth
and, if necessary, mild washing up liquid.
앬 If the chainsaw is not to be used for an extended
period of time then you should remove the chain
oil from the tank. Briefly immerse the saw chain
and the cutter rail in an oil bath and then wrap
them in oil paper.
Danger!
앬 Always disconnect the mains plug before
cleaning the chainsaw.
앬 Never immerse the unit in water or other liquids in
order to clean it.
앬 Store the chainsaw in a safe and dry place out of
the reach of children.
