Safety Instructions
3. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ATTENTION!
Acquaint yourself with all warnings and safety instructions and with operation instructions for the power
tool.
ATTENTION!
Not adhering to warnings or safety instructions may result in injury by electrical shock, a fi re and/or serious
injury.
ATTENTION!
Store all warnings and safety instructions in a practical location for future reference.
Note: The term "power tool" in all hereafter provided warnings is defi ned as an electric power tool powered
from the power grid (via a fl exible power cord).
Safety in the work area
Keep the work area tidy and well illuminated. Untidiness and dark locations in the workplace are sources of
accidents.
Do not use the power tool in environments where there is a explosion hazard, where there are fl ammable
liquids, gases or dust. The power tool generates sparks which could ignite dust or vapours.
When using the power tool, prevent children and other persons access to the power tool. If you become
distracted, you may lose control over the power tool.
Safety when working with power tools
The plug on the fl exible power cord must correspond to the power socket outlet. Never modify the plug in any
way. Never use any socket adapters with power tools that have a safety earth grounding connection. Plugs
that are not damaged by modifi cations and that correspond to the power socket will limit the danger of injury
by electrical shock.
Prevent your body from coming into contact with grounded objects, such as pipes, central heating radiators,
stoves and refrigerators. The risk of injury by electrical shock is greater when your body is connected to the
ground.
Do not expose the power tool to rain, dampness or wetness. The entry of water into the power tool increases
the danger of injury by electrical shock.
Do not use the fl exible power cord for other purposes. Never carry or pull the power tool by its power cord or
pull the plug out of the socket by the power cord. Protect the power cord against heat, grease, sharp edges
and moving parts. Damaged or tangled power cords increase the danger of injury by electrical shock.
If the power tool is used outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Using extension cords
designed for outdoor use limits the risk of injury by electrical shock.
If you will be using the power tool in a damp environment, use a residual current device (RCD) in the power
supply circuit. The use of a residual current device reduces the risk of injury by electrical shock.
Note: The "residual current device" (RCD) may be substituted for by the term "ground fault circuit
interrupter" (GFCI) or "earth leakage circuit breaker" (ELCB).

Safety Instructions
Safety of people
When working with the power tool, always stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense.
Do not use power tools if you are tired or under the infl uence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
carelessness when working with power tools may result in serious injury.
Use personal protective aids. Always use eye protection. Use protective aids, e.g. respirator, safety footwear
with anti-slip soles, hard head cover or hearing protection appropriately to the work conditions; they reduce
the risk of injury to persons.
Avoid accidentally starting up the power tool. Before connecting to a power source, before connecting the
battery, before storage or before carrying the power tool, make sure that the start/stop trigger is in the off
position. Carrying the power tool with a fi nger on the trigger or connecting the power tool’s plug with the
trigger engaged may cause an accident.
Remove all adjustment tools and spanners before turning on the power tool. An adjustment tool or spanner
left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in injury to persons.
Only work in locations that you can reach safely. Always maintain a stable stance and balance.
In this way you will have better control over the power tool in unexpected situations.
Dress in an appropriate manner. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Make sure that your hair, clothing
and gloves are at a suffi cient distance from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery and long hair may
become caught in the moving parts.
If there is equipment available for the extraction and collection of dust, make sure that such equipment is
connected and used correctly. The use of such equipment may limit the danger posed by the created dust.
Using power tools and their maintenance
Do not overload the power tool. Only use power tools that are appropriate for the work being performed.
Appropriate power tools for the given task will do the job better and more safely.
Do not use power tools that cannot be turned on and off with a switch. Any electric power tools that cannot
be controlled using a switch are dangerous and must be repaired.
Before adjusting the power tool, before replacing accessories or if you will not be using the power tool, pull
the power plug out of the power socket. These preventative safety measures limit the danger of accidentally
turning on the power tool.
When not used, store the power tool out of children’s reach and do not permit person not acquainted with
the power tool or these instructions to use the power tool. A power tool in the hands of inexperienced users is
dangerous.
Perform maintenance on the tool. Check the adjustment of moving parts and their movement, focus on
cracks, broken parts or any other circumstances that may threaten the proper operation of the power tool.
If the power tool is damaged, have it repaired before using it again. Many accidents are caused by
insuffi ciently maintained power tools.
Keep cutting power tools clean and sharp. Correctly maintained and sharpened cutting power tools are less
likely to get stuck on material or to jam and they are also easier to control.
Use power tools, accessories, working tools, etc. in accordance with these instructions and in such
a manner as prescribed for the specifi c power tool with respect to the given work conditions and the type
of work being carried out. Using power tools for tasks other than for which they are designed may lead to
dangerous situations.

Warning!
WARNING!
Always wear safety goggles, ear muffs, protective gloves and heavy-duty work clothes!Use the saw only
with approved extension cables with the prescribed insulation and connections designed for outdoor use
(approved rubber-sheathed cables) which fi t the chainsaw plug.
The chain saw is equipped with safety switches, requiring the use of both hand. The chain saw is equipped
with a safety switch. It only works if you press the switch-on lock (11) and the on/off switch (13) with one
hand at the same time.
If the chainsaw does not run, the chain brake must be released at the front fi nger guard (3).
ASSEMBLY
Fitting the guide bar and chain (Fig. 1, 2, 3)
WARNING!
If the chain saw is already connected to the power supply: Pull the plug from the socket outlet.
Wear protective gloves whenever doing any work on the saw chain.
ELECTRIC CHAIN SAWUSER'S MANUAL
Page 16
EN 16
Attachment and operation
IMPORTANT!
The front fi nger guard (3) must always be in the top (vertical) position (Fig. 5).
The guide rail and the saw chain are delivered separately, i.e. not assembled. When assembling, fi rst loosen
the lock nut / SDS system (5) and then remove the chain cover (6). The guide pin (17) must be in the middle of the guide. If necessary, adjust the chain tension with the lock nut / SDS system (5) (fi g. 3).
WARNING!
To prevent injury on the sharp cutting edges, always wear gloves when assembling, tensioning and checking the chain.
Before assembling the guide bar with the saw chain, check the cutting direction of the teeth!
The running direction is indicated by an arrow on the chain cover (6). To determine the direction of cut, it
may be necessary to turn over the saw chain (4).
Hold the guide bar (7) vertically with the tip pointing upwards and put on the saw chain (4, beginning at the
tip of the bar.
Then assemble the guide bar with the saw chain as follows:
Place the guide bar with the saw chain on the chain wheel (16) and guide bolt (17).Place the saw chain round the chain wheel (16).
Cause the chainsaw to the sprocket and check whether it is correctly.
Install the chain cover (6) on top and carefully secure it with the lock nut (5).
Now the saw chain has to be correctly tensioned.
TENSIONING THE SAW CHAIN
WARNING!
Always pull the plug out of the power socket before doing any work on the chainsaw!
Wear safety gloves!
Make sure the saw chain (4) is inside the guide groove of the guide bar (7).Turn the lock nut/SDS system (5) clockwise (fi g. 3) until the saw chain is properly tensioned.When cold, it should be possible to lift the chain in the middle of the guide bar approx. 5 mm.When warm, the saw chain will expand and slacken and there is a danger of it jumping off the rail altogether.
Re-tension if necessary.
If the saw chain is re-tensioned when hot, it must be loosened again when the sawing work has been
completed.
Otherwise, the contraction which takes place as the chain cools would result in excessively high tension.A new saw chain requires a running-in period of approx. 5 minutes. Chain lubrication is very important at this
stage. After running in, check chain tension and re-tension if necessary.
FZP 2025-E

Initial operation
7. INITIAL OPERATION
The voltage and current supply must comply with the ratings on the type plate.
Before commencing work, always check that the chainsaw works properly and is safe to operate.
Check also that the chain lubrication and the oil gauge are in good working order (see Fig. 4). When the oil
lever is approx. 5 mm from the bottom mark, you must top up with oil. When the oil level is higher you can work
without worry.
Switch on the chain saw and hold it above the ground. Be careful not allow the chainsaw to touch the
ground. For safety reasons it is best to keep a clearance of at least 20 cm. If you now see growing traces
of oil, the chain lubrication system is working correctly. If there are no traces of oil at all, try cleaning the
oil outlet (Fig 2, C) and the oil duct or contact your Customer Service. (Before doing this, please read the
relevant instructions in the „Top up chain lubricant“ section).
Check the chain tension and retention, if necessary (see the section “Tensioning the saw chain” on this
point).
Make sure the chain brake is working properly (see also the section “Releasing the chain brake”).
To switch on:
Release the chain brake (3), push in the lock (11) and press the power switch (13).Place the lowest claw (Fig 2, J) on the wood. Raise the chain saw by the rear grip (1) and saw into the wood.
Move the chain saw back a little and place the claw further down.
Be careful when sawing splintered wood as pieces of wood may be ripped off.
After switching on, the chainsaw will run immediately at high speed.
EN
17
To switch off
Release either the ON/OFF switch (13) on the rear grip.The release of ON/OFF switch results the stop of the chainsaw within 1sec., and heavy sparkling.
This is normal and safe for the proper operation of the chainsaw.
After working with the chainsaw, you should always: Clean the saw chain and guide bar and replace the
chain guard.
If the chain brake is activated the chainsaw will be deactivated immediately.

Working instructions
8. WORKING INSTRUCTIONS
Transporting the chainsaw
Before transporting the chainsaw, always remove the plug from the power socket and slide the chain guard over
the rail and chain. If several cuts are to be performed with the chain saw, the saw must be switched off between
cuts.
Securing the extension lead
Only use extension leads suitable for outdoor use.
The cross section of the cable (max. length of extension cord: 75 m) must be at least 2,5 mm2. secure the
chainsaw fl ex to the extension lead by inserting the extension lead into the strain relief gap of the housing (Fig.
M).Extension leads longer than 30 m will reduce the performance of the chainsaw.
Chain lubrication
To prevent excessive wear, the saw chain and guide bar must be evenly lubricated during operation. Lubrication
is automatic. Never work without chain lubrication. If the chain runs dry, the entire cutting apparatus will quickly
become severely damaged.
It is therefore important to check both chain lubrication and the oil gauge every use (Fig. 4).
Never use the saw when the oil level is below the “Min.” mark.
Min.: When only approx. 5 mm of oil is visible at the lower rim of the oil gauge (15), you must top up with oil.Max.: Top up with oil until the window is full.
Chain lubricants
The service life of saw chains and guide bars depends to a large extent on the quality of the lubricant used. Old
oil must not be used! Use only environment- friendly chain lubricant. Store chain lubricant only in containers
which comply with the regulations.
Guide bar
The guide bar (7) is subjected to especially severe wear and tear at the nose and the bottom. To avoid one-sided
wear and tear, turn the guide bar over every time when you sharpen the chain.
Chain wheel
The chain wheel (16) is subjected to especially high wear and tear. If you notice deep wear marks on the teeth,
the chain wheel must be replaced. A worn chain wheel curtails the service life of the saw chain.
Have the chain wheel replaced by a specialist dealer or your Customer Service.
Chain guard
The chain guard must be clipped onto the chain and sword as soon as the sawing work has been completed
and whenever the chainsaw has to be transported.
Chain brake
In the event of kick-back, the chain brake (3) will be actuated via the front fi nger guard. The front fi nger guard is
pushed forwards by the back of the hand and this causes the chain brake to stop the chain saw, or rather the
motor, within 0.15 s (Fig 5, H).
FZP 2025-E
Page 19
Working instructions
19
Releasing the chain brake (Fig. 5)
To be able to use your chain saw again, you must release the saw chain again. First switch off the chainsaw.
Then push the front fi nger guard (3) back into the vertical position until it locks in place (Fig 5, I).
The chain brake is now fully functional again.
Chainsaw protection
Never use the chainsaw in the rain or in damp conditions.
Warning! If the extension cable is damaged, pull the plug out of the power socket immediately. Never work with
a damaged cable.
Check the chainsaw for damage. Before using your tool again, check the safety devices or any slightly
damaged parts to ensure that they are in good working order.
Make sure the moving parts are working correctly.All the parts must be correctly assembled and meet all the conditions required to ensure that the chainsaw
works correctly.
Any damaged safety devices and parts must be properly repaired or replaced immediately by a Customer
Service workshop, unless there are instructions to the contrary in these operating instructions.
Notes on working practice
Kick-back
You can avoid accidents by not sawing with the tip of the guide bar as this may cause the saw to rear up
suddenly. Always use the complete safety equipment and clothes when working with the saw. Kick-back is an
upward and/or backward movement of the guide bar which can occur if the saw chain at the tip of the guide bar
encounters an obstruction.
EN
Make sure your work-piece is fi rmly secured. Use clamps to stop the work-piece slipping. This also makes it
easier to operate the chainsaw with both hands. Kick-back causes the saw to behave uncontrollably and thus
brings with a slack or blunt chain.
A poorly sharpened chain increases the risk of kickback. Never saw above shoulder height.
Operation - tips on chain saw use
Important Notes
Use the device exclusively for sawing wood. Do not cut metal, plastics, masonry, building material that is not
made of wood, etc.
Turn off the engine when the saw comes into contact with a foreign object. Inspect the saw and repair it if
necessary.
Protect the chain from dirt and sand. Even a small amount of dirt will quickly blunt a chain and increase the
risk of kickback.
Start by cutting a few small logs, using the exercise to get a feel for your device before you tackle more
diffi cult tasks.
Press the casing of the chain saw against the log when you start sawing.Allow the saw to work. Exert only slight downward pressure.In order not to lose control of the device you should lean towards the end of the incision so there is no
pressure on the saw.

Working instructions
Felling Trees – Only after appropriate training
CAUTION!
Watch for broken or dead branches that could fall during sawing and cause serious injury. Do not saw near
buildings or electrical wires if you do not know in which direction the felled tree could fall.
Do not work at night since you will not be able to see properly, or in rain, snow or storm, as it is diffi cult to
predict the direction in which the tree could fall.
Plan your work in advance.The work area around the tree should be clear so you have a fi rm foothold.The operator should always stand on the uphill side of the terrain as the tree is expected to roll or slide after
felling.
Check for broken or dead branches, which can fall and cause serious injury.
The following conditions may affect the direction in which a tree falls:
Wind direction and speed.Lean of the tree. The inclination is not always visible due to uneven or sloping terrain. Determine the lean of
the tree using a solder or a spirit level.
Branch growth (and hence weight) on one side only.Surrounding trees and obstacles.
If two or more people are involved in the cutting and felling, the distance between those who are felling and
cutting should be at least twice the height of the tree to be felled. When felling trees, make sure that other people
are not put at risk, that supply lines are not hit and that no material damage is caused. If a tree comes in contact
with a supply line, the supply company has to be notifi ed immediately.
Look for decay and rot. If the trunk is rotted, it may suddenly collapse and fall on you. Make sure there is enough
space for the tree to fall safely. Keep a distance of 2 1/2 tree lengths from the nearest person or other objects.
Engine noise can drown out a warning call.
Remove dirt, stones, loose bark, nails, staples, and wire from the tree where you are going to cut.
Keep an escape route (Fig. A)
Before felling, an escape route has to be planned and cleared, if necessary. The escape route should lead diagonally away from the back of the falling tree (Fig. A).
Item 1: Plan of emergency exits
Item 2: Position in which the tree falls
Felling of large trees - only with appropriate training (15 cm in diameter)
Fell large trees using the notch method. Here, a wedge is laterally cut out of the tree according to the desired
direction of fall. After a cut has been made on the case of the other side of the tree, the tree will fall in the direction
of the wedge.
Note: If the tree has large prop roots, they should be removed before making the notch. If the saw is used
to remove the prop roots, the chain should not touch the ground, to prevent it from becoming become blunt.
FZP 2025-E
Page 21
Working instructions
21
Undercut and felling of the tree (Fig. B - C)
Saw a wedge with a depth of 1/3 of the tree diameter at a right-angle to the falling direction. Make the lower
horizontal wedge cut fi rst (Fig. B, No. 1).
This will prevent the saw chain or the guide bar becoming jammed when the second wedge cut (Fig. B, No.
2) is made. Now remove the excised wedge.
Next, you can run the felling cut (Fig. B, Pos. 3) on the opposite side of the tree. Do this at approximately 5 cm
above the centre of the notch. Make the dropping cut parallel to the horizontal wedge cut. For the dropping
cut (No. 3), saw only to a depth so that a bridge (No. 4) (holding wood) remains which can act as a hinge.
The bridge prevents the tree from turning and falling in the wrong direction. Do not cut through the bridge.
Note: When the dropping cut is made close to the bridge, the tree should start falling. If it looks like the tree
may possibly not fall in the desired direction or it leans back and traps the saw chain, stop the dropping cut
and use wedges of wood. plastic or aluminium to open the cut and to tilt the tree into the required falling
direction. When the tree starts falling, remove the chainsaw from the cut, turn it off, put it away and leave the
danger zone via the planned escape route. Look out for falling branches and do not trip.
Be alert to signs that the tree is starting to fall: cracking sounds, widening of the felling cut, or movement in
the upper branches.
To avoid injury, do not cut down a partially felled tree with your saw. Pay special attention to partially felled
trees that may be poorly supported. If a tree does not fall completely, set the saw aside and pull with a cable
winch, block and tackle, or tractor.
Sawing a felled tree (bucking)
The term “buck” means to cut a felled tree trunk into the desired log length.
EN
CAUTION!
Do not stand on the log while it is being cut.
Any portion can roll, and you may lose your footing and control over the device. Never run the saw on sloping ground. Make sure you have secure footing and distribute your body weight evenly on both feet.
If possible, put branches, beams or wedges under the tree to support it.
Important Notes
Always only cut one log at a time.Be careful when cutting splintery wood. You could be hit by sharp wood particles.Cut small logs or branches on a sawhorse. When cutting logs, another person should hold the trunk.
Do not secure the trunk with your leg or foot.
If you use the saw in places where trunks and roots are tangled, drag the logs into a clear spot, and lift the
cleared logs fi rst.
Different cuts for bucking (Fig. D)
CAUTION!
If the saw is clamped into a log, do not pull it out by force. You risk losing control of the device, thereby
resulting in injury and / or damage to the saw. Hold the saw, and drive a plastic or wood - wedge into the
cut until the saw can be pulled out easily. Position the saw carefully and allow it to cut again. Start the saw if
it is trapped in a trunk.
ELECTRIC CHAIN SAWUSER'S MANUAL
Page 22
EN 22
Working instructions
Upper section (Fig. E, item 1)
Position the saw at the upper end of the log. With the overcut apply only slight downward pressure.
Sub-section (Fig. E, item 2)
Place the undercut at the bottom of the trunk, holding the top of the saw down against the log. Practice the undercut; it is just as easy to train from the top.
Hold the saw fi rmly and maintain control. The saw will push backwards (towards you).
CAUTION!
Never hold the saw upside down for an undercut. In this position, you have no control over the device.
Always execute the fi rst cut on the compression side of the log. The compression side of a log is where the
pressure of the root weight is concentrated.
Bucking without supports (Fig. F)
When the whole length of the tree trunk is stable and even, start sawing from the top (No. 1).Make sure you do not saw into the ground.
Trunk cutting, supported on one end (Fig. G)
When the tree trunk is propped up on one end, make the fi rst cut (No. 1) from underneath (1/3 of the trunk
diameter) in order to prevent splitting.
The second cut is made from the top (2/3 of the diameter) in the same line as the fi rst cut to prevent the saw
from becoming jammed.
Trunk cutting, supported on both ends (Fig. H)
When the tree trunk is propped up on both ends, make the fi rst cut (No. 1) from the top (1/3 of the trunk
diameter) in order to prevent splitting.
The second cut is made from underneath (2/3 of the diameter) in the same line as the fi rst cut to prevent the
saw from becoming jammed.
Limbing and Trimming
ATTENTION!
Always pay attention to, and protect yourself against kickback. Never let the moving chain at the top of the
guide bar come into contact with other branches or objects when limbing or trimming. Such contact can
cause serious injury.
ATTENTION!
Climb the tree for pruning or trimming. Do not stand on ladders, platforms, etc. as you may lose your balance and lose control of the device.
FZP 2025-E
Page 23
Working instructions
Important Notes
Work slowly, and hold the saw fi rmly with both hands. Ensure safe standing position and balance.Watch out for spring backs. Use extreme caution when cutting small size limbs. Pliable material may catch
in the saw chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off balance.
Watch out for spring backs. This is especially true for branches that are bent or under pressure. Avoid coming
in contact with the branch or the saw when there is tension in the wood.
Keep your work area clear. Keep the path clear of branches to avoid tripping over them.
Lopping (Fig. J)
Lopping means removing branches from the felled tree.Leave the larger limbs that are underneath the felled tree, and use them as support while you continue to
work.
Start at the base of the felled tree and work your way up to the top. Remove smaller parts of the tree with
a cut in the direction of growth (arrows Fig. J).
Be sure to keep the tree between you and the saw.Remove larger, supporting branches using the methods in the section „Bucking without restraints“.Always cut branches under tension from the underneath to the top, so the saw does not become trapped.Always cut small and freely hanging limbs with one cut. By undercutting they could fall in and pinch the saw.
Trimming (Fig. I)
ATTENTION!
Leave stubs in branches or below cut them to shoulder level only. Never cut branches above shoulder
height. Leave such work to an expert.
23
EN
Make the fi rst cut (Item 1) 1/3 in the bottom of the limb.Then cut the second section (Item 2) all the way through the branch. The third section (item 3) is a general
section that allows you to separate the branch at 2.5 to 5 cm from the trunk.
Sawing on a slope (Fig. K)
When sawing on a slope, make sure you always stand higher than the tree trunk (Fig. K). In order to maintain
complete control at the moment of “sawing through”, reduce pressure towards the end of the cut without releasing your tight grip on the handles of the chainsaw.
WARNING!
The saw chain must not come in contact with the ground.
After completing the cut, wait for the saw chain to come to a standstill before removing the chainsaw.
Always turn off the chainsaw’s motor when going from one tree to the next.

Maintenance
9. MAINTENANCE
Always pull the plug out of the power socket before doing any work on the chainsaw!
Keep the cooling vents on the motor housing clean and unobstructed at all times.Only the maintenance work described in these operating instructions may be carried out. Any other
maintenance work must be carried out by our Customer Service.
Do not modify the power saw in any way as this could jeopardize its safety.Should the chainsaw fail despite our careful manufacturing and inspection procedures, have it repaired by
an authorized Customer Service workshop.
Filling in chain oil
To prevent dirt getting inside the tank, clean the oil tank cap (21) before opening. Check the contents of the oil
tank during sawing work by checking the oil gauge (15). Close the oil tank cap tightly and wipe away any spills.
Sharpening the saw chain
You can have your saw chain sharpened fast and correctly by specialist dealers, from whom you can also obtain
chain sharpening equipment to enable you to sharpen the chain yourself.

Cutting
10. CUTTING
ATTENTION!
Before proceeding, please read the chapter “Safety instructions”. We recommend that you gain experience
by cutting smaller logs. In this way you will also get to know the chain saw.
Always adhere to safety instructions. The chain saw may only be used for cutting wood.
It is forbidden to cut any other materials. Vibrations and kickback differ for various materials. Do not use the
chain saw as a lever for lifting, moving or splitting material. It is forbidden to attach any parts or jigs other
than those specifi ed in the technical documentation.
It is not necessary to push the chain saw into the cut. When the motor is running at full speed, push the chain
saw down lightly.
If the chain jams in the cut, do not attempt to free it by pulling, rather stretch open the cut using a wedge or
crowbar.
Safety brake (protection against kickback)
This chain saw is equipped with an automatic chain brake that, if it works correctly, immediately stops the
chain in the event of kickback. It is necessary to check the working order of the chain brake before every use
of the chain saw. Run the chainsaw at full speed for 1 - 2 seconds and then tilt the front protective cover. The
chain must stop immediately even when the motor is running at high speed. If the chain stops slowly or does
not stop at all, please contact an authorised service centre.
It is extremely important to check the working order of the chain brake and the sharpness of the chain before
every use to ensure that the necessary level of safety in the event of a kickback is maintained. Removing
safety accessories, incorrect maintenance or when using unsuitable guide bars or chains may, in the event
of kickback, result in serious injuries.

Cutting trees
Decide about the direction in which the tree will fall, respecting
the wind direction, incline angle of the tree and location of the
branches, and consider all other factors before cutting.
The area around the tree must be clear, without obstacles, and
must enable a stable stance. The escape route must be passable.
Cut a wedge into one third of the tree’s diameter on the side to
which the tree should fall. (see fi g. Cutting trees, point 1)
From the opposite direction perform a separation cut at a level
above the wedge cut. (see fi g. Cutting trees, point 2)
The tree will fall in the direction towards the wedge cut.
(see fi g. Cutting trees, point 3)
ATTENTION!
When cutting trees, inform other people in the area about the potential danger. Cutting trees requires experience and we do not recommend performing this task without the necessary experience.

Cutting
Cutting logs
ATTENTION!
Always maintain a stable stance. Do not step on logs.
ATTENTION!
Before starting work, check that all components are in their place and that all nuts and bolts are tightened.
The log being cut may roll away. Especially when cutting on a slope, always stand above the log being cut.
Prevent kickback of the saw by following the instructions in chapter “Safety instructions”.
Before starting work, assess the direction of the force causing the cut trunk to bend. The fi nal cut needs to
always be done from the opposite side of where the bending force is acting to prevent the guide bar from
being clamped inside the cut.
Only carry the chain saw with the motor turned off and the guide bar protected by the protective cover.
Log lying on the ground
Cut it halfway through, then roll it over and complete
the cut from the other side.
Log above the ground
In part “A” make a cut from below to a third of the log
and then complete the cut from above. In part “B”
make a cut from above to a third of the log and then
complete the cut from below.
Removing a fallen tree
First fi nd out to which side the branch is bent. Then
make the initial cut from the side of the bend and then
complete the cut from the opposite side.
ATTENTION!
A bent branch may spring up.

11. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the body of the chain saw
Keep the body of the chain saw clean. When cleaning, use a soft cloth dipped in a soap solution. Use this cloth to
meticulously clean the body of the chain saw.
Maintaining the guide bar
Most problems with the guide bar arise due to uneven
wear.
Uneven wear occurs mainly as a result of an incorrectly
sharpened chain or an incorrectly set depth gauge. When
the guide bar is worn out unevenly, the guiding groove is
widened (see Picture). The result is a rattling chain and
rivets falling off.
The chain saw cannot be used for straight cuts. In such
a case, replace the guide bar for a new one.
Always check the condition of the guide bar before
sharpening the chain. Using a worn out or damaged guide
bar is very dangerous. Using a worn out or damaged
Standard guide
guide bar will result in damage to the chain. Cutting with
such
a power tool will also be much more diffi cult and
demanding.
Normal maintenance of the guide bar
Remove the guide bar from the body of the chain saw.Regularly remove sawdust from the guide bar groove. For cleaning use a spatula or a wire.Clean oily grooves at the end of every work day.
Replace the guide bar if:
• it is bent or cracked
• its groove is very damaged or worn out
Note: To replace the guide bar, follow the instruction contained in this user's manual. You will fi nd the
correct guide bar type in the technical specifi cations.

Sharpening the saw chain
12. SHARPENING THE SAW CHAIN
Keep the saw chain sharp. Cutting will be signifi cantly faster and most importantly safer. A blunt saw chain
increases wear on the sprocket, guide bar, chain and motor. If you need to push on the saw and only sawdust
with a few splinters are produced then this means that the chain is blunt.
For this task, we recommend that you contact an authorised service centre
Equipment necessary for sharpening a saw chain
Round fi le as per technical specifi cations
Depth gauge
File guide
Vice
Medium-size fl at fi le
Sharpening the teeth on the chain
Use the fi le guide set at an angle of 30° (mark A, see fi gure).
Set the saw chain tension to the correct level.
Fasten the guide bar in a vice so that you have the chain in
a stable position.
Note: Do not fasten the chain itself.
Push the round fi le, inserted in the fi le guide, into the groove
between the top plate and the depth gauge on the chain. The
chain should be touching both the top plate as well as the depth
gauge (see fi gure)
Note: File in the middle of the guide bar.
Note: In the fi gure you can see the position of the fi le guide
and the direction for fi ling the teeth on the left side of the chain.
Place the fi le guide at the required angle (mark A, see fi gure). Check that the mark is at 30° on the fi le guide
aligned with the centre of the guide bar. This will ensure that you will fi le at an angle of 30°.
File the tooth in the direction from inside out (in direction B, see fi gure) until it is sharp. File only in this
direction.
Note: Two to three passes of the fi le should be suffi cient to sharpen the tooth.
FZP 2025-E

Filing the depth gauge
As a result of sharpening the teeth on the chain, the depth
gauge tolerance is reduced. After every second or third sharpening, it is necessary to adjust the depth gauge setting.
Place the depth gauge adjustment jig (see fi g., point 1)
fi rmly on the top edge of two teeth. Make sure that the
groove of the jig is in the groove of the depth gauge (see
fi g., point 2.)
Use a medium-sized fl at fi le (see fi g., point 3).
File the depth gauge (see fi g., point 4) to the level of the
depth gauge adjustment jig.
Remove the depth gauge adjustment jig. Using a fl at fi le,
round the front edge of the depth gauge (see fi gure). When
fi ling, adhere to the prescribed values (see fi g., point 5).
Note: After the chain has been sharpened by hand
several times, have the saw chain sharpened at an
authorised service centre or sharpen it on a special
sharpening machine. This will renew the even sharpness
of all teeth.

Replacing the saw chain
13. REPLACING THE SAW CHAIN
ATTENTION!
When replacing the saw chain, do not clamp the chain saw or the guide bar in a vice.
Always replace the chain if the teeth are excessively worn out and they cannot be sharpened or if the chain
snaps. Use only an original spare chain according to the specifi cations in this user’s manual. When replacing
the saw chain, always also replace the cogged wheel of the sprocket. This will ensure the correct position of the
chain during movement. (Note: You will fi nd the specifi cations of the correct chain type and the cogged wheel in
the technical specifi cations.)
Loosen and remove the bar guide bolt.
Remove the sprocket cover.
Remove the saw chain.
Wind the new chain around the cogged wheel, then along the top
groove of the guide bar and around the guide bar nose.
Note: Check that the saw teeth are facing in the correct
direction. Put on the chain so that the teeth on the top side of the
guide bar are facing towards the guide bar nose (see fi gure).
Before placing the sprocket cover into position, check that the
chain tensioning pin is inserted into the adjustment hole on the
guide bar.
Put the sprocket cover back on to the body of the chain saw.
Fasten the sprocket cover using the guide bar bolt.
ATTENTION!
Only tighten the bolt by hand.
Adjust the tension of the saw chain.Tighten the guide bar bolt.
ATTENTION!
Check that you have not placed the saw chain on the guide bar in the opposite direction.
Otherwise, the chain saw will exhibit excessive vibrations and will not cut.
