[. . . ] The chain brake is activated when the front hand guard is pushed forward (the chain is blocked). ENGLISH ­ 5 The chain brake can be activated in two modes: the first using the left wrist by pushing forwards, or when it comes into contact with the brake system as a result of kickback; or by inertia, in the case of particularly violent kickback. When the machine is used with the bar in horizontal position, for example during tree felling, the chain brake offers less protection, because it can be activated by inertia only, since the user's hand is outside the range of action of the front hand guard (fig. 3). N. B. : When the chain brake is activated, a safety switch cuts off all current to the motor. CHAIN CATCHER This machine is equipped with a chain catcher (fig. 4) located under the pinion. This mechanism is designed to arrest the backward chain movement in the case of chain breaking or derailing. These situations can be avoided by ensuring correct chain tension (Refer to chapter "D. REAR HAND GUARD This acts to protect(fig. 5) the hand in the case of chain breaking or derailing. D. ASSEMBLY / DISASSEMBLY 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12 BAR AND CHAIN ASSEMBLY Assembly methods change according to the type of your machine- so please take care to refer to the illustrations and machine type marked on the label (A- Legend ­ 9 [ES15 / ES16 / ES18] ), Take great care when assembling to ensure this is performed correctly. Control that the chain brake is not activated. Unscrew the bar retaining nuts and remove 2b. Unscrew the bar retaining knob and remove the the chain cover. Mount the bar on the bar retaining screws 3b. If chain oil is not available, EP 90 transmission oil can be used. Never use waste oil because this is this harmful to health, the machine and the environment. Make sure that the oil is suitable for the temperature of the environment where the tool will be used: For temperatures under 0°C certain oils become denser, overloading the pump and causing damage. Contact your Authorised Service Centre for advice on oil choice. Filling oil tank Unscrew the oil tank cap, and fill the tank taking care not to spill any oil (if this occurs clean the machine carefully) (fig. 2), and then screw the cap back on tightly. G. In cases where work environments are particularly dirty or dusty, the operations described must be performed more frequently than mentioned in the instructions. Before each use Control that the chain oil pump functions correctly: direct the bar towards a clear surface at a distance of about 20 centimetres; after the machine has run for about a minute, the surface should show clear traces of oil(fig. 1). 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12, 13 Check that excessive strength is not needed for activating and deactivating the chain brake. Also check that it is not activated too easily and that it is not blocked. Then check chain brake function as follows: release the chain brake, grip the machine correctly and start up the machine, activate the chain brake by pushing the front hand guard forward with the left wrist or arm but without removing the hand from the handle(fig. 2). If the chain brake is working correctly, the chain should be blocked immediately. ENGLISH ­ 7 Check that the chain is sharpened correctly (See below), in good working condition and that the tension is correct. If the chain is irregularly worn, or if the cutting teeth are only 3 mm high, the chain must be replaced(fig. 3). [. . . ] FELLING CUTS (fig. 10) In order to ensure that the user has complete control over the tree fall, the cutting instructions are as follows: The cut that controls the fall direction of the tree is to be executed first: First of all cut the UPPER PART of the directional notch on the side the tree must fall. Remain on the right hand side of the tree and cut using the chain pull method; then cut the LOWER PART that must meet the end of the upper part. The depth of the directional notch must be ¼ of the trunk diameter, with an angle of at least 45° between upper ENGLISH ­ 9 and lower cut. The meeting point between the two sides of the notch is called "directional cut line" This line must be perfectly horizontal at right angles (90°) to the felling direction. [. . . ]
