Notes on noise and vibration values

Levels of noise and vibration were determined according to the standards and regulations in the declaration of conformity.

⚠️ CAUTION! Hearing damage! Wear ear protection.

The specified total vibration values and the stated noise emission values have been measured according to a standardised test method and can be used to compare one power tool with another. The specified total vibration values and the stated specified noise emission values can also be used for a provisional assessment of the load.

WARNING! The vibration and noise emissions may deviate from the specified value during actual use of the power tool, depending on how the power tool is being used and, in particular, what kind of material is being worked on. Safety measures for protection of the operator are to be determined that are based on an estimate of the vibration load under the real operating conditions. All parts of the operating cycle have to be considered while doing so – for example, times when the power tool is switched off and times when it is switched on but running without any load.

General Power Tool Safety Warnings

⚠ WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1. WORK AREA SAFETY

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2. ELECTRICAL SAFETY

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Un-

modified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

3. PERSONAL SAFETY

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating

part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.

4. POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired be-

fore use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.

  1. SERVICE

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Safety information for chainsaws

a) When in operation, keep all body parts away from the saw chain. Before you start the saw, ensure that the saw chain is not touching anything. When using a chainsaw, losing concentration for just a moment can lead to clothing or body parts being caught up in the saw chain.

b) Always hold the chainsaw with your right hand on the rear grip and left hand on the front grip. Holding the chainsaw the other way around increases the risk of injuries and is not permitted.

c) Hold the chainsaw only by the insulated gripping surfaces, as the saw chain may come into contact with concealed power lines. Contact with a live wire by the saw chain can also cause a charge in metal parts of the device and result in an electric shock.

d) Wear eye protection. Further protective equipment for the ears, head, hands, legs and feet is recommended.

Appropriate protective clothing reduces the risk of injury from flying chip material and accidental contact with the saw chain.

e) Do not use the chainsaw to work from trees, ladders, a roof or other unstable surfaces. Operating the device in such a way poses a serious risk of injury.

f) Ensure you are standing firmly and only use the chainsaw if the ground beneath you is solid, secure and even. Slippery ground or unstable surfaces can lead to loss of balance or loss of control over the chainsaw.

g) If working on a branch under tension, be aware that it will spring back. Once the tension in the wood fibres has been released, the branch may hit the user and/or control over the chainsaw may be lost.

h) Be particularly careful when cutting brushwood and young trees. The thin material may become caught in the saw chain and hit you or cause you to lose balance.

i) Carry the chainsaw by the front grip when it is switched off with the saw chain pointing away from your body. Always place the protective cover onto the chainsaw when transporting or storing it. Careful handling of the chainsaw reduces the probability of accidentally coming into contact with the running saw chain.

j) Observe instructions for lubrication, chain tensioning and replacing the guide rail and chain. An improperly tensioned or lubricated chain may rip apart or increase the risk of kickback.

k) Only saw wood. Do not use the chainsaw for work for which it is not intended. Example: Do not use the chainsaw to saw through metal, plastic, masonry or construction materials not made from wood. Use of the chainsaw for unintended applications can lead to hazardous situations.

I) Do not attempt to fell a tree until you have a clear understanding of the risks and how to avoid them. The user or other persons can be seriously injured by a falling tree.

Additional safety instructions

- ⚠ WARNING! During operation, this power tool produces an electromagnetic field. Under certain circumstances, this field may negatively affect active or pass-

ive medical implants. In order to reduce the danger of serious or fatal injuries, we recommend that individuals who wear medical implants should consult their doctor and the manufacturer of the implant before operating the machine.

  • Lay the power cord so that it is not caught by branches or similar during sawing.
  • Use a residual current device (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.
  • Only use approved mains cables of the type H07RN-Fwhich at most 75 m long and intended for outdoor use. The wire cross section of the mains cable must be at least 2.5 mm ^2 . Always roll out the cable drum completely before use. Check the mains cable for damages.
  • Follow the maintenance, control and service instructions in this instruction manual carefully. Damaged safety equipment and parts must be repaired or replaced professionally by our service centre, unless otherwise indicated in the instruction manual.
  • Do not use the chainsaw without lubrication. Only use recommended lubricants for this purpose.
  • Practise cutting logs on a sawhorse or frame if you are a first-time user.
  • If the cord of the power tool is damaged, it must be replaced with a specially prepared cord, which is available from the customer service organisation.
  • If the cord needs to be replaced, we recommend that this be done by the manufacturer or their representative (e.g. authorised specialist workshop, customer service, etc.).

Causes and Operator Prevention of Kickback

PARKSIDE PPEKS 2500 B2 - Causes and Operator Prevention of Kickback - 1

natural_image Two diagrams showing a mechanical component (a) and a lever mechanism (b), both without any text or symbols.

- Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide bar touches an object, or when the wood closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut (Fig. b).

  • Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back towards the operator (Fig. a).
  • Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may push the guide bar rapidly back towards the operator.
  • Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control of the saw which could result in serious personal injury. Do not rely exclusively upon the safety devices built into your saw. As a chain saw user, you should take several steps to keep your cutting jobs free from accident or injury.

Kickback is the result of chain saw misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below:

  • Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers encircling the chain saw handles, with both hands on the saw and position your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback forces. Kickback forces can be controlled by the operator, if proper precautions are taken. Do not let go of the chain saw.
  • Do not overreach and do not cut above shoulder height. This helps prevent unintended tip contact and enables better control of the chain saw in unexpected situations.
  • Only use replacement guide bars and saw chains specified by the manufacturer. Incorrect replacement guide bars and saw chains may cause chain breakage and/or kickback.
  • Follow the manufacturer's sharpening and maintenance instructions for the saw chain. Decreasing the depth gauge height can lead to increased kickback.

Residual risks

There will always be residual risks even if you operate this device according to the instructions. The following hazards may occur in connection with the type and design of this device:

  • Hearing damage if suitable ear protection is not worn.
  • Health injuries resulting from the effect of hand/arm vibration in the event that the tool is used over a longer period of time or is not used and maintained properly.
  • Cutting injuries

WARNING! Danger due to electromagnetic field generated while the tool is in operation. Under certain circumstances, this field may negatively affect active or passive medical implants. In order to reduce the danger of serious or fatal injuries, we recommend that individuals who wear medical implants should consult their doctor and the manufacturer of the implant before operating the tool.

Preparation

WARNING! Risk of injury due to unintentional start-up. Do not insert the plug into the outlet until the device is fully prepared for use.

NOTICE! If the chainsaw is used with too little oil, the cutting performance and lifespan of the saw chain will decrease as the saw chain will become blunt more quickly. You can recognise insufficient oil by the smoke development or discolouration of the blade

bar. Make sure that there is always oil flowing onto the chain.

Notes

  • Before starting work, check the oil level.
  • You can check the chain lubrication at any time during operation.

Procedure

  1. While the saw chain is running: Hold the chainsaw above clear ground. Observe the trace of oil. The chainsaw must not touch the ground!

• Significant trace of oil: The chainsaw is working properly
- Slight trace of oil: Adjust the oil flow
- No trace of oil: Clean the oil passage

Pouring in chain oil

⚠ WARNING! Risk of fire! Always turn off the device and let the engine cool down before filling with chain oil.

NOTICE! If the chainsaw is used with too little oil, the cutting performance and lifespan of the saw chain will decrease as the saw chain will become blunt more quickly. You can recognise insufficient oil by the smoke development or discolouration of the blade bar. Make sure that there is always oil flowing onto the chain.

The oil flows to the blade bar (3) as soon as the chain starts running.

  • Check the oil level regularly and top up with oil if the level is low. Tank capacity: 130 cm^3
  • Use bio chain oil containing additives to reduce friction and wear. Alternatively, use chain lubricating oil with a low proportion of adhesion additives.
  • Empty the oil tank if it will not be used for a prolonged period of time (6–8 weeks).

Procedure

  1. Place the device on its side with the tank cover (14) facing upwards.
  2. Unscrew the tank cover (14).
  3. Pour the bio chain oil into the tank.
  4. Wipe away any spilt oil.

Sawing techniques

⚠ WARNING! Risk of injury! If the saw chain is jammed, do not try to pull the chainsaw out by force. Switch off the motor and use a lever arm or wedge to release the chainsaw.

  • Always stand above the tree trunk when sawing on slopes.
  • Remove dirt, stones, loose bark, nails, clips and wires from the tree.
  • The saw chain must not touch the ground or any object while sawing through the material or thereafter.
  • You will have better control over the device if you saw using the lower edge of the blade bar (saw chain in pulling direction) and not using the upper edge of the blade bar (saw chain in pushing direction).
  • Ensure that the saw chain does not get stuck while sawing. The log must not break or splinter.
  • Please observe the precautionary measures to protect against kickback (Causes

and Operator Prevention of Kickback, p. 32)

  • Reduce the contact pressure towards the end of the cut without loosening the firm grip on the chainsaw handles in order to maintain full control at the moment of 'sawing through'.
  • The chainsaw may slip unexpectedly while cutting. This happens in particular when the guide bar cannot find a firm grip on round, smooth, or hard surfaces, or when sawing with the tip of the guide bar.? Always hold the saw firmly with both hands, stand securely, and avoid using only the tip of the guide bar.
  • After completing the cut, wait until the chainsaw has come to a standstill before removing it.
  • Always switch off the chainsaw motor before moving from tree to tree.

Felling trees

⚠ WARNING! A lot of experience is needed to fell trees. Only fell trees if you know how to use the chainsaw safely. Never use the chainsaw if you feel unsafe.

CAUTION! Do not cut down a tree if there is a strong or changing wind, if there is a risk of damage to property or if the tree could hit power lines. When felling trees, ensure that no other persons are subject to hazards and that no material damage is caused. If a tree should come into contact with a power line, the supply company must be informed immediately.

⚠️ CAUTION! For safety reasons, we advise inexperienced users against felling a tree trunk with a blade bar length that is smaller than the trunk diameter.

  • Please make sure that no other persons or animals are present in your work area. The safety distance between the tree to be felled and the nearest workplace must be 2 ½ tree lengths.
  • Pay attention to the felling direction. The user must be able to move around safely near the felled tree so that he can cut the tree to size and cut off all branches easily. The falling tree must be prevented from becoming entangled in another tree.
  • Please note that the natural falling direction depends on the pitch and crookedness of the tree trunk, the wind direction,

position of larger branches and the number of branches.

  • Stay above the tree to be felled when sawing on a slope. The tree will probably roll or slide downhill after felling.
  • Small trees with a diameter of 15-18 cm can usually be sawn off with one cut.
  • For trees with a larger diameter, notch cuts and a felling cut must be applied (Fig. L).
  • If cutting and felling is being carried out by two or more persons simultaneously, the distance between the felling and cutting persons must be at least twice the height of the tree to be felled.

Fold up the hearing protection immediately after finishing the sawing process so that you can hear sounds and warning signals.

Procedure

1. Limbing (Fig. J)

Remove branches hanging downwards by sawing from the top of the branch. Never saw off branches higher than shoulder height.

2. Escape area (Fig. I)

Remove the undergrowth around the tree to ensure an easy retreat. The escape area (1) should be offset by about 45^ behind the planned felling direction (2).

3. Cut drop notch (A) (Fig. L)

Place a drop notch in the direction in which you want the tree to fall. Start with the lower, horizontal cut. The cutting depth should be about 1/3 of the trunk diameter. Now make an oblique saw cut with a cutting angle of approximately 45^ from above, which meets the lower saw cut exactly. This prevents the saw chain or guide rail from jamming when the second notch cut is made.

⚠ WARNING! Never step in front of a tree that is notched.

4. Felling cut (B) (Fig. L)

Make the felling cut from the other side of the trunk. Stand to the left of the tree trunk and saw with the saw chain pulling (with the underside of the blade bar). The felling cut must be at least 5 cm above the horizontal notch section. It should be deep enough so that the distance to the notch cutting line is at least 1/10 of the trunk diameter. The part of the log that has not been sawn through is called the

hinge (felling bar). The hinge prevents the tree from turning and falling in the wrong direction. Do not cut through this hinge. When the felling cut nears the hinge, the tree should begin to fall. If it becomes apparent that the tree will not fall in the desired direction or if it bends back, and if the saw chain is stuck, discontinue the felling cut. Use wooden, plastic or aluminium wedges to open the cut and fell the tree to fall into the desired fall line.

  1. Slide a cutting wedge into the felling cut as soon as the cutting depth so permits, in order to prevent the blade bar from getting jammed (Fig. M).
  2. If the trunk diameter is greater than the length of the blade bar, make two cuts (Fig. N).
  3. Once the felling cut has been made, the tree falls by itself or with the help of the felling wedge.

⚠ WARNING! As soon as the tree starts to fall, pull the chainsaw out of the cut, stop the engine, put the chainsaw down and leave the workplace via the retreat path. Pay attention to falling branches and do not stumble.

Limbing

Limbing is the term for removing branches and twigs from a felled tree.

⚠️ CAUTION! Risk of injury! Never saw off branches when you are standing on the tree trunk. Keep an eye on the kickback area when branches are under tension.

(Fig. J)

  • Only remove support branches after cutting to length.
  • Saw branches under tension from the bottom upwards to prevent the tool from jamming.
  • Use the same technique as for Cutting to length, p. 36 when sawing off thicker branches.
  • Work to the left of the trunk and as close as possible to the tool. If possible, the weight of the tool should rest on the trunk.
  • Change location to saw off branches beyond the trunk.
  • Cut branched branches to length individually. Leave larger branches pointing downwards and supporting the tree for the time being.
  • Separate smaller branches with one cut.

Cutting to length

Cutting to length means sawing felled tree trunks into small sections.

  • Ensure that you have a secure footing and balance your body weight evenly on both feet.
  • Support the trunk if possible. The trunk should be underpinned and supported by branches, beams or wedges.
  • Make sure that the saw chain does not touch the ground when sawing.
  • Stand above the trunk on sloping terrain.

Techniques for cutting to length

Trunk lying on the ground (Fig. E)

Saw all the way through the trunk from above, taking care not to touch the ground at the end of the cut. If it is possible to turn the trunk, saw through 2/3 of it. Then turn the trunk over and saw through the rest of the trunk from above.

Trunk is supported at one end (Fig. F)

First saw through 1/3 of the trunk diameter from bottom to top (with the top of the blade bar) to avoid splintering. Then saw from top to bottom (with the underside of the blade bar) towards the first cut to avoid jamming.

Trunk is supported at both ends (Fig. G)

First saw through 1/3 of the trunk diameter from top to bottom (with the underside of the blade bar). Then saw from bottom to top (with the top of the blade bar) until the cuts meet.

Sawing on a sawhorse (Fig. H)

Hold the chainsaw firmly with both hands and guide the machine in front of your body while sawing. When the log is cut, guide the machine past the body on the right (1). Keep your left arm as straight as possible (2). Watch out for the falling trunk. Position yourself so that the severed trunk does not pose a hazard. Pay attention to your feet. The severed trunk could cause injuries if it falls. Keep your balance (3).

Cleaning, maintenance and storage

⚠ WARNING! Electric shock! Risk of injury due to unintentional start-up. Protect yourself when performing maintenance or cleaning work. Switch off the device and disconnect the plug from the power outlet.

You should have any repair and maintenance work that is not described in these instructions carried out by our Service Centre. Only use original replacement parts.

CAUTION! Please be aware that the chainsaw may leak oil after use if it is stored on its side or head. This is a normal occurrence and is caused by the ventilation opening on the top edge of the tank which is a necessary component; this is not grounds for complaint. Since every chainsaw is inspected and tested using oil during manufacture, a small amount of oil may remain in the tank after emptying, which may slightly dirty the housing during transport. Please clean the housing with a cloth.

Cleaning

⚠ WARNING! Electric shock! Never spray down the device with water.

CAUTION! Cutting injuries! Wear cut-resistant gloves when working with the saw chain or with the blade bar.

NOTICE! Risk of damage. Chemical substances may attack the plastic parts of the machine. Do not use any cleaning agents or solvents.

Clean the machine thoroughly. This will extend the life of the machine and prevent accidents.

Cleaning after every use

  • Keep the handles free of oil or grease. If necessary, clean the handles with a damp cloth washed in soapy water.
  • Clean the saw chain. Do not use any liquids to clean the saw chain. Lightly oil the saw chain with chain oil after cleaning.
  • For cleaning, also remove the sprocket cover (9) so that this area can also be cleaned.
  • Clean the blade bar (3).
  • Clean the ventilation slits and the surface of the machine with a paintbrush or dry cloth.
  • Clean the oil passage (26) to ensure fault-free, automatic oiling of the saw chain during operation. Use a brush or a cloth to help remove residues from the oil passage.

Maintenance

Service intervals

Carefully perform the maintenance tasks listed in the following table on a regular basis. Regular servicing of your device will extend its life. Additionally, you will achieve optimum cutting performance and prevent accidents.

Removing the blade bar and saw chain

CAUTION! Cutting injuries! Wear cut-resistant gloves when working with the saw chain or with the blade bar.

Procedure (Fig. B)

  1. Pull out the mains plug.
  2. Place the tool on a level surface.
  3. Deactivate the chain brake: Pull the chain brake lever (2) back towards the front handle (15).

You can only refit the sprocket cover (9) when the chain brake band has been released.

  1. Loosen the chain tension: Turn the chain tensioner screw (8) ⭕.

  2. Remove the sprocket cover (9): Turn the wing nut (7) ⬆.

  3. Push the blade bar (3) towards the chain sprocket (28).

You can remove the saw chain (4) and blade bar (3).

  1. Clean the groove of the blade bar. If dirt deposits are present, the saw chain (4) may jump out of the bar.

  2. Check the chain sprocket (28) for wear or damage. If worn or damaged:

Contact the service centre.

Changing the saw chain and blade bar

Prior to changing the saw chain, the groove of the guide rail must be cleaned of dirt because dirt deposits available can cause the saw chain to break out of the rail. The deposits can also absorb the chain oil. So the consequence would be that the chain oil would not or only a small part of it would reach the underside of the rail and the lubrication would be reduced.

Requirements

- Removing the blade bar and saw chain, p. 37

Procedure (Fig. B)

  1. Replace the blade bar (3)/ the saw chain (4).

  2. Fit the blade bar (3) and saw chain (4) as described under Installing the saw chain and blade bar, p. 38.

PARKSIDE PPEKS 2500 B2 - Procedure (Fig. B) - 1

Direction of travel by saw chain

  1. Place the blade bar (3) on the blade bar bolt (27) and slide it onto the chain sprocket (28).

  2. Thread the saw chain (4) over the chain sprocket (28).

  3. Place the saw chain (4) on the top of the blade bar (3) in the blade bar groove. Start at the chain sprocket (28). It is normal for the saw chain (4) to sag.

  4. Pull the blade bar (3) forwards to tension the saw chain (4).

  5. Fit the sprocket cover (9). To do this, first insert the lug (29) on the sprocket cover (9) into the holder provided on the tool. Ensure that the chain tensioner pin (30) engages in the receptacle (31).

  6. Tighten the wing nut (7) with moderate force ⬇.

  7. Tension the saw chain: Turn the chain tensioner screw (8) ⬇.

  8. Tighten the wing nut (7) ↻.

Tensioning the saw chain

NOTICE! Do not re-tension or change the saw chain when it is hot because it shrinks slightly once it has cooled down. If this is not observed it can lead to damage on the guide rail or the engine because the saw chain is now too taut on the blade bar.

Regularly tightening the saw chain provides safety for the user and reduces and/or prevents wear and chain damage. We recommend that the user check the chain tension before starting work and at intervals of approx. 10 minutes and correct it if necessary. The saw chain warms up when working with the saw and thus expands slightly. These “expansions” can be expected especially from newer saw chains.

Chain tension and chain lubrication have a significant impact on the service life of the saw chain. The chain tension of a new saw chain must be readjusted after a maximum of 5 cuts.

The saw chain is properly tensioned when it does not hang from the underside of the blade bar and cannot be moved around by a gloved hand. When pulling on the saw chain with 9 N (approx. 1 kg) of force, the saw

chain and blade bar should not be separated by a distance of more than 2 mm.

  2. Undo the wing nut (7) ⭕.

  3. To tension the saw chain, turn the chain tensioner screw (8) ⬇.

To loosen the tension, turn the chain tensioner screw (8) ⭕.

  1. Retighten the wing nut (7) ⬇.

The chain tension of a new saw chain must be readjusted after a maximum of 5 cuts.

Sharpening the cutting teeth

CAUTION! Risk of injury! An incorrectly sharpened saw chain increases the danger of kickback! Use cut-resistant gloves when working with the saw chain or with the blade bar.

A sharp saw chain ensures optimum cutting performance. It effortlessly eats through the wood and leaves behind large, long wood chips. A saw chain is dull when you have to push the cutting equipment through the wood and the wood chips are very small. With a very blunt saw chain, no chips are produced, only wood dust.

Special tools are required for sharpening the saw chain to ensure that the chain is sharpened at the correct angle and to the correct depth. For inexperienced chain-saw users, we recommend having the saw chain sharpened by an expert or a specialist workshop. If you are confident that you can sharpen the chain, proceed according to the instructions for your saw chain sharpener (e.g. Parkside PSG 85 B2).

- The sawing parts of the saw chain are the cutting links, which consist of a cutting

tooth and a depth gauge lug. The height distance between these two determines the sharpening depth.

- The saw chain is worn and must be replaced with a new saw chain when only approx. 4 mm of the cutting tooth is left.

- The following values must be taken into account when sharpening the cutting teeth (Fig. K):

• Sharpening angle (30°)

- Front angle (85°)

• Sharpening depth (0.65 mm)

• Round file diameter (4.0 mm)

⚠ WARNING! Risk of accident! Deviations from the dimensions of the cutting edge geometry can lead to an increased tendency of kickback by the machine.

Tools and aids required

- Round file

- Flat file

Procedure (Fig. K)

  1. Switch off the device and unplug the mains plug.
  2. Ensure that the saw chain is tightly tensioned to enable correct sharpening.
  3. Only sharpen from the inside out. Guide the round file from the inside of the cutting tooth to the outside. Lift off the file when you pull it back.
  4. Sharpen the teeth on one side first. Then turn the saw chain over and sharpen the teeth on the other side.
  5. Check the length of the cutting links. After sharpening, all the cutting links must have the same length and width.
  6. After every third sharpening, check the sharpening depth (depth gauge) and re-file the height using a flat file. The depth gauge should be set back by approx. 0.65 mm from the cutting tooth.
  7. After resetting, round off the depth gauge slightly towards the front.

Adjusting the chain tension

Adjusting the chain tension is described in section Tensioning the saw chain, p. 38.

Running in a new saw chain

The tensioning force of a new saw chain decreases after some time. You must therefore retighten the saw chain after the first 5 cuts or after 10 minutes of sawing at the latest (Tensioning the saw chain, p. 38).

⚠ WARNING! Risk of injury! Never attach a new saw chain to a worn chain sprocket or to a damaged or worn blade bar. The saw chain could jump off or break.

Servicing the blade bar

CAUTION! Cutting injuries! Wear cut-resistant gloves when working with the saw chain or with the blade bar.

Tools and aids required

- Flat file

Procedure (Fig. B)

  1. Switch off the device and unplug the mains plug.
  2. Remove the sprocket cover (9), saw chain (4) and blade bar (3).
  3. Check the blade bar (3) for wear.
  4. Remove burrs and straighten the guide surfaces with a flat file.
  5. Clean the oil passage (26) to ensure fault-free, automatic oiling of the saw chain during operation.
  6. Mount the blade bar (3), saw chain (4) and sprocket cover (9) and tighten the chainsaw.

When in an optimal condition, the oil passages will automatically spray the saw chain with a little oil a few seconds after starting the chainsaw.

Turning the blade bar

CAUTION! Cutting injuries! Wear cut-resistant gloves when working with the saw chain or with the blade bar.

The blade bar (3) needs to be reversed regularly after a working time of about 10 hours in order to ensure even wear.

Procedure (Fig. B)

  1. Switch off the device and unplug the mains plug.
  2. Remove the sprocket cover (9), saw chain (4) and blade bar (3).
  3. Turn the blade bar around its horizontal axis and install the blade bar and saw chain as described under Installing the saw chain and blade bar, p. 38. Pay attention to the correct rotation direction of the saw chain while doing so!
