Frequently Asked Questions - GCEC 1935 EINHELL

How to mount the bar and chain on the Einhell GCEC 1935 chainsaw?

To mount the bar and chain, first unplug the device. Unscrew the screws of the sprocket cover, remove the cover, place the chain in the bar groove, then insert the assembly into the housing while guiding the chain around the sprocket. Replace the cover and tighten the screws after adjusting the chain tension.

What type of oil to use for the chain?

Use a special chain oil. The viscosity must be adapted to the temperature: thin oil in winter, thicker in summer. Never use the saw without oil, this would damage the chain and bar.

How to adjust chain tension?

Unplug. Slightly loosen the cover screws, then turn the chain tension screw: to the right to tighten, to the left to loosen. The tension is correct if the chain can be lifted 3 to 4 mm at the center of the bar. Retighten the cover screws after adjustment.

What to do if the chain does not cut correctly?

First check the chain tension (it should be tight but not too tight). If cutting remains ineffective, the chain may be dull: have it sharpened by a professional. Replace the chain if it is worn.

How does the chain brake work?

The chain brake is automatically activated by the front hand guard in case of kickback. To check it, push the hand guard forward, then briefly turn on the saw: the chain should not start. To unlock it, pull the rear hand guard until it clicks.

What safety precautions are essential?

Always wear eye and hearing protection, gloves, and protective clothing. Hold the saw with both hands. Never saw above shoulder height. Use the bumper spike as a pivot point. Unplug before any intervention.

How to clean and maintain the chainsaw?

After each use, clean the tension mechanism with compressed air or a brush. Check the oil level and chain tension. For prolonged storage, empty the oil tank and lightly oil the chain and bar. Never immerse the device in water.

What to do if the chain jams or clogs?

Unplug immediately. If the chain is stuck in the wood, use a lever to free the trunk. Never force. Then check the chain tension and the condition of the bar. For frequent clogging, have the device checked.

How to store the Einhell GCEC 1935 chainsaw?

Store it in a dry, dark, frost-free place, out of reach of children. The ideal temperature is between 5 and 30°C. Preferably use the original packaging. Before prolonged storage, empty the oil tank and protect the bar with its cap.

5. Before starting the equipment

Before you connect the equipment to the mains supply make sure that the data on the rating plate are identical to the mains data.

GB

Warning!

Always pull the power plug before making adjustments to the equipment.

Caution: Do not connect the chainsaw to the power supply until it has been fully assembled and the chain tension has been adjusted. Always wear protective gloves when working on the chainsaw to protect yourself against injury.

5.1 Assembly of the cutter rail and the saw chain

• Carefully unpack all parts and check that they are complete (Fig. 2-3).
- Undo the fixing screw of the chain wheel cover (Fig. 4).
• Take off the chain wheel (Fig. 5).
- Lay the chain as shown in the groove which runs around the cutter rail (Fig. 6/Item A).
- Insert the cutter rail and chain as shown in the mounting in the chainsaw (Fig. 6a and 6b). As you do so, guide the chain around the chain wheel (Fig. 6a and 6b / Item B).
- Attach the chain wheel cover and secure it with the fixing screw (Fig. 7). Caution: Do not fully tighten the fixing screw until after adjusting the chain tension (refer to point 5.2).

5.2 Tensioning the saw chain

Warning! Always disconnect the mains plug before performing any checks or adjustments. Always wear protective gloves when working on the chainsaw to protect yourself against injury.

• Undo the fixing screw of the chain wheel cover a few turns (Fig. 4).
• Adjust the chain tension with the chain tensioning screw (Fig. 8). Turning the screw clockwise increases the tension, turning it counter-clockwise decreases the chain tension. The saw chain is correctly tensioned if it can be lifted around 3-4 mm in the middle of the cutter rail (Fig. 9).
• Tighten the fixing screw of the chain wheel cover.

Danger! All of the chain links must lie properly in the guide groove of the cutter rail.

Notes on tensioning the chain:

The saw chain must be properly tensioned to ensure safe operation. You can tell that the chain tension is perfect if the saw chain can be lifted by around 3-4 mm in the middle of the cutter rail. As the saw chain heats up during cutting and thus changes in length, please check the chain tension every 10 minutes and adjust it again as required. This applies in particular to new saw chains. When you have fi nished working slacken the chain again, as the chain will shorten when it cools down. This will prevent the chain from being damaged.

5.3 Saw chain lubrication

Warning! Always disconnect the mains plug before performing any checks or adjustments. Always wear protective gloves when working on the chainsaw to protect yourself against injury.

Notice! Never operate the chain if it is not lubricated with saw chain oil. Use of the chainsaw without saw chain oil or if the oil level is below the "min" mark (Fig. 10/ Item B) will damage the chainsaw.

Notice! Be aware of the temperature conditions: different lubricants with completely different viscosities are required at different ambient temperatures. At lower temperatures you will need low viscosity oils in order to achieve a sufficient lubricating fi Im. However, if the same low viscosity oil is used during the summer it will become even thinner due to the ambient temperatures alone, and as a result the lubricating fi Im could break down, causing the chain to overheat and become damaged. In addition, the chain oil would burn and produce unnecessary pollutants.

Filling the oil tank:

• Place the chainsaw on a flat surface.
• Clean the area around the oil tank cover (Fig. 10/Item 7) and then clean the oil tank cover.
• Fill the tank with saw chain oil. In the process, make sure that no dirt enters the tank, as this could cause the oil nozzle to become blocked.
• Close the oil tank cover.

6. Operation

6.1 Connecting to the mains supply

• Connect the power cable to a suitable extension cable. Make sure that the extension cable is designed for the power rating of the chainsaw.
• Secure the extension cable as shown in Fig. 12 to protect it against pulling forces and accidental disconnection.
• Connect the extension cable to a professionally installed safety mains outlet with ground

GB

contact.

We recommend using a cable with a bright and highly visible color, e.g. red or yellow. This will reduce the risk of accidentally damaging it with the chainsaw.

6.2 Switching on/off

Switching on

• Hold the chainsaw by the handles with both hands as shown in Fig. 13 (thumbs under the handles).
• Press and hold the safety lock-off (Fig. 1/Item 5).
• To switch on the chainsaw, press the On/Off switch (Fig. 1/Item 6). You can then release the safety lock-off.

Switching off

Release the ON/OFF switch (Fig. 1/Item 6).

The integrated brake will bring the running chain-saw to a standstill within a very short space of time. Always disconnect the mains plug when you stop working, even if it is only for a short time.

Warning! Always carry the saw by the front handle. If the saw is plugged in and you carry it by the rear handle (which is where the switches are located), then there is a risk that you could accidentally press the safety lock-off and the ON/OFF switch at the same time, and the chainsaw could inadvertently start up.

6.3 Safety devices

Motor brake

The motor brakes the saw chain as soon as the ON/OFF switch (Fig. 1/Item 6) is released or the power supply is interrupted. This signifi cantly reduces the risk of injury that would otherwise be present if the chain continued to run after being switched off or disconnected.

Chain brake

The chain brake is a safety mechanism which is triggered via the front hand guard (Fig. 1/Item 2). If kickback causes the chainsaw to suddenly jerk back then the chain brake trips and stops the saw chain in less than 0.1 seconds. You must check the operation of the chain brake on a regular basis. To do this, fold the hand guard (Fig. 1/Item 2) forward and briefly switch the chainsaw on. The saw chain must not start up.

Pull back the front hand guard (Fig. 1/Item 2) until it engages to release the chain brake.

Danger! Never use the saw if the safety equipment is not working properly. Never try to repair safety related protection systems yourself – always have any work done by our service department or by a similarly qualified workshop.

Hand guard

The front hand guard (which also acts as the chain brake at the same time) (Fig. 1/Item 2) and the rear hand guard (Fig. 2/Item 14) protect against fi nger injuries resulting from contact with the saw chain if the chain breaks because it is overloaded.

7. Working with the chainsaw

7.1 Preparations

To ensure that you can work safely, check the following points before every use:

Condition of the chain saw

Inspect the chainsaw before the start of work for damage to the housing, the power cable, the saw chain and the cutter rail. Never use a chainsaw which is obviously damaged.

Oil container

Fill level of the oil container. Even while working, keep checking that sufficient oil is in the system. To avoid damaging the chainsaw, never run the saw if there is no oil in the system or if the oil drops below the "min" mark (Fig. 10/Item B). On average, a single fi lling will last around 15 minutes depending on the number of pauses in cutting and the loads involved.

Saw chain

Tension of the saw chain, condition of the cutting elements. The sharper the chainsaw, the easier and more controllable it is to operate the chainsaw. The same also applies to the chain tension. Again, while working also check the chain tension every 10 minutes in order to increase your safety. New saw chains in particular often tend to expand more.

Chain brake

Check the operation of the chain brake as described in the chapter "Safety devices" and then

GB

release it.

Safety clothing

Always wear appropriate tight-fi tting safety clothing like special trousers which protect against cuts, protective gloves and safety shoes.

Hearing protection and protective goggles.

When felling trees or performing forest work, always wear a protective helmet with integral face and hearing protection. This will offer protection against falling branches and any branches if they spring back.

7.2 Description of the correct procedures for basic use of the chainsaw

Felling a tree (Figs. 14-17)

If two or more persons are working at the same time on felling and cutting back then the minimum distance between the tree being felled and the tree being cut back should be at least twice the height of the tree being felled (Fig. 14). When felling trees, care must be taken to ensure that no other persons are endangered, no power supply lines are hit and no material damage is caused to equipment or property. In the event that a tree comes into contact with a power supply line, he responsible power supply company should be informed immediately.

When working with the saw on a slope, the operator of the chainsaw must be standing at a higher point on the slope than the tree being felled, as the tree will roll or slip downhill once it has been felled (Fig. 15).

Before felling the tree you must first plan and if necessary clear an escape route. This escape route must lead away diagonally in the opposite direction to the expected fall direction – this can be seen in Fig. 16 (A= danger zone, B= direction of fall, C= escape zone).

Before felling the tree you must take into account the natural inclination of the tree, the location of larger branches and the wind direction, as this will help you to correctly determine the direction in which the tree will fall.

Dirt, stones, loose bark, nails, staples and wire must be removed from the tree.

Making the felling notch (Fig. 17)

Cut a notch (A) at right angles to the fall direction to a depth of 1/3 of the tree diameter as shown in Fig. 17. First make the lower horizontal felling

notch (1). This prevents the saw chain or the guide rail from becoming trapped when the second felling notch is made.

Making the felling cut (Fig. 17)

The felling cut should be positioned at least 50 mm above the horizontal felling notch. Make the felling cut (B) parallel to the horizontal felling notch. The felling cut should be cut to a depth which leaves a thin strip (felling hinge strip) (D) which can act as a hinge. This strip prevents the tree from rotating and falling in the wrong direction. Do not cut through the strip. When the felling cut gets close to the strip the tree should start to fall. If it becomes clear that the tree may well fall in a different direction to the desired fall direction (C) or it starts to lean back and traps the saw chain, interrupt the felling cut and insert wedges made of wood, plastic or aluminum to open out the cut and control the lean of the tree until it leans in the required direction.

When the tree starts to fall, remove the chainsaw from the cut, switch it off, place it on the ground and exit the danger zone via the planned escape route. Watch out for falling branches and take care not to trip.

Removing branches

Here we are talking about removing branches from the felled tree. When removing branches, leave any downward facing branches which are supporting the tree until the trunk of the tree has been cut up. Smaller branches should be removed as shown in Fig. 18 (A= cutting direction when removing branches, B= keep away from the ground! Supporting branches should be left until the trunk is cut up) in a single cut from the bottom to the top. Any branches which are under tension should be cut from the bottom to the top to prevent the saw from becoming trapped.

Cutting the tree trunk into lengths

Here we are looking at the process of cutting the felled tree into sections. Make sure you have a sure footing and distribute your body weight evenly onto both feet. If possible the trunk should be underlaid and supported with branches, beams or wedges. For easy cutting follow the simple instructions below.

If the full length of the tree trunk is evenly supported as shown in Fig. 19 then proceed by cutting from the top down. Take care not to cut into the ground in the process.

GB

If the weight of the tree trunk is resting on one end as shown in Fig. 20, fi rst cut through 1/3 of the trunk diameter from the underside (A) in order to prevent it from splintering. Make the second cut from the top (2/3 of the diameter) to the height of the fi rst cut (B) (this prevents the chainsaw from being trapped).

If the weight of the tree trunk is resting on both ends as shown in Fig. 21, fi rst cut through 1/3 of the trunk diameter from the top (A) in order to prevent it from splintering. Make the second cut from underneath (2/3 of the diameter) to the height of the fi rst cut (B) (this prevents the chainsaw from being trapped).

When working with the saw on a slope, always position yourself at a higher point on the slope above the tree as shown in Fig. 15. In order to retain full control at the moment when the cut goes through, reduce pressure towards the end of the cut without releasing your firm grip on the handles of the chainsaw. Take care to ensure that the chainsaw does not touch the ground.

After completing the cut, wait for the chain saw to come to a standstill before removing the chainsaw. Always switch off the motor of the chainsaw before moving from tree to tree.

7.3 Kickback

The term “kickback” describes what happens when the running chainsaw suddenly kicks upward and backward. Usually, this is caused by contact between the tip of the cutter rail and the workpiece or the saw chain becoming trapped. In the event of kickback, large forces occur suddenly and violently. As a result, the chainsaw usually reacts uncontrollably. This can often result in very serious injuries to the worker or persons in the vicinity. The risk of kickback is particularly great when performing cross cuts, angled cuts and longitudinal cuts, as it is not possible to use the claw stop on these cuts. You should therefore avoid these cuts as far as possible and take particular care when they are unavoidable.

The risk of kickback is at its greatest when the saw is positioned for a cut in the region of the tip of the cutter rail, as the leverage effect is greatest there (Fig. 22). It is therefore safest to position the saw fl at and as close as possible to the claw stop before making the cut (Fig. 23).

Warning!

• Make sure that the chain tension is always correctly adjusted.
- Only use a chainsaw if it is in perfect working order.
- Only work with a saw chain that has been properly sharpened in accordance with the instructions.
• Never operate the saw above shoulder height.
- Never cut with the upper edge or the tip of the sword.
• Always hold the chainsaw firmly with both hands.
- Whenever possible, use the claw stop as a leverage point.

Cutting wood which is under tension

Special care is required when cutting wood which is under tension. Wood which is under tension from which it is released by cutting may in some cases react completely unpredictably and uncontrollably. In the worst case this could result in extremely severe or even fatal injuries (Fig. 24-26).

This type of work must only be performed by persons who have been specially trained.

8. Replacing the power cable

Danger!

If the power cable for this equipment is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its after-sales service or similarly trained personnel to avoid danger.

9. Cleaning, maintenance and ordering of spare parts

Danger!

• Always disconnect the mains plug before cleaning the chainsaw.
- Never immerse the unit in water or other liquids in order to clean it.
- Store the chainsaw in a safe and dry place out of the reach of children.

9.1 Cleaning

• Regularly clean the clamping mechanism by blowing it out with compressed air or cleaning it with a brush. Do not use tools for cleaning.
• Keep the handles free of grease so that you can maintain a firm grip.
  • Clean the device as required with a damp

GB

cloth and, if necessary, mild washing up li- quid.

- 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.

9.2 Carbon brushes

In case of excessive sparking, have the carbon brushes checked only by a qualified electrician. Danger! The carbon brushes should not be replaced by anyone but a qualified electrician.

9.3 Maintenance

Replacing the saw chain and cutter rail

The cutter rail needs to be replaced if

• the guide groove of the cutter rail is worn;
- the nose sprocket in the cutter rail is damaged or worn.

Proceed as described in the section "Assembly of the cutter rail and the saw chain".

Checking the automatic chain lubrication

You should check the operation of the automatic chain lubrication system on a regular basis in order to guard against overheating and the associated damage to the cutter rail and the saw chain. To do this, point the tip of the cutter rail towards a smooth surface (board, section of a cut tree) and allow the chainsaw to run.

If an increasing oil trace becomes evident during this process then the automatic chain lubrication system is working properly. If no clear oil trace is evident then please refer to the corresponding instructions in "Troubleshooting". If the information contained there still fails to remedy the situation then please contact our service department or another similarly qualified workshop.

Danger! Do not actually touch the surface with the tip of the cutter rail when performing this test. Keep a safe distance (approx. 20 cm).

Sharpening the saw chain

Eff ective 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.

Warranty certifi cate

Dear Customer,

All of our products undergo strict quality checks to ensure that they reach you in perfect condition. In the unlikely event that this equipment develops a fault, please contact our service department at the address shown on this guarantee card. You can also contact us by telephone using the service number shown. Please note the following terms under which guarantee claims can be made:

1. These guarantee terms apply solely to consumers, i.e. natural persons, who do not want to use this product in connection with either their commercial or other self-employed activities. These guarantee terms regulate additional guarantee services which the undermentioned manufacturer promises to buyers of its new products in addition to their statutory rights of guarantee. Your statutory rights of guarantee are not affected by this guarantee. Our guarantee is free of charge to you.

2. The guarantee services cover only defects due to material or manufacturing faults on the new product which you have bought in the European Union from the undermentioned manufacturer and are limited to either the rectification of said defects or the replacement of the product, whichever we prefer. Please note that only equipment under the brand name "Professional" has been designed for use in commercial, trade or professional applications. For all other products the guarantee is invalidated if the equipment is used within the guarantee period in commercial, trade or industrial applications or for other equivalent activities.

3. Our guarantee does not cover:

4. Damage to the equipment caused by failure to comply with the installation/assembly instructions or by unprofessional installation; damage caused by failure to comply with the operating instructions (e.g. connection to the wrong mains voltage or current type); damage caused by failure to comply with the maintenance and safety regulations; damage caused by exposing the equipment to abnormal environmental conditions; damage resulting from poor care and maintenance.

5. Damage to the equipment caused by misuse or incorrect applications (e.g. overloading the equipment or using non-approved attachments or accessories); damage caused by foreign bodies (e.g. sand, stones, dust, ....) getting inside the equipment. Damage in transit; damage caused by force or external influences (e.g. by dropping the equipment).

6. Damage to the equipment or parts of the equipment which is owed to use-related, normal or otherwise natural wear. For example, batteries and battery packs are manufactured with a cycle limit for design-related reasons. Wear is negatively influenced in particular by load demands and charging speeds as well as exposure to heat, cold, vibration and impact.

7. The guarantee is valid for a period of 2 years starting from the purchase date of the equipment. Guarantee claims must be submitted before the end of the guarantee period and within two weeks of the defect being noticed. No guarantee claims will be accepted after the end of the guarantee period. The original guarantee period remains applicable to the equipment even if repairs are carried out or parts are replaced. In such cases, the work performed or parts fitted will not result in an extension of the guarantee period, and no new guarantee will become active for the work performed or for any replacement parts fitted. This also applies if on-site service is used.

8. To assert your guarantee claim, register the defective equipment at: www.Einhell-Service.com. You will need to provide proof of purchase of the new item of equipment. Equipment returned without such proof or without a rating plate are excluded from the guarantee services because of the lack of traceability. If the defect is covered by our guarantee, then either the item in question will be repaired immediately and returned to you or we will send you a new replacement.

9. If you have taken the equipment with you to a different EU country than where you bought it, we will arrange for a local service partner to provide the guarantee services. If you take the equipment outside the EU, the guarantee will not apply.

Of course, we are also happy to offer a chargeable repair service for any defects which are not covered or no longer covered by the scope of this guarantee. To take advantage of this service, please send the equipment to our service address. We draw attention to the restrictions of this guarantee concerning wear parts, consumables and missing parts as presented in the service information included in this operating manual.
