Protective glasses or a visor must be worn. 2 ­ English CONTENTS Before using a new saw · Read the instructions carefully. · Check cutting equipment is correctly fitted and adjusted. See page 25. · Refuel and start the saw. Check the carburettor settings. See pages 26-29. · Do not use the saw until sufficient chain oil has reached the chain, see page 14. IMPORTANT! If the carburettor mixture is too lean it greatly increases the risk of engine failure. Poor maintenance of the air filter will cause carbon build-up on the spark plug and lead to difficult starting. If the chain is badly adjusted it will cause increased wear or damage to the bar, drive sprocket and chain.
