7. പരിപാലനം

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your chainsaw. Always remove the battery before performing any maintenance.

7.1 പൊതുവായ ശുചീകരണം

Clean the chainsaw after each use. Remove sawdust, chips, and debris from the motor housing, chain, and bar. Use a brush or compressed air. Do not use water or solvents that could damage plastic parts or electrical components.

7.2 ചെയിൻ ലൂബ്രിക്കേഷൻ

The auto-oiler mechanism continuously lubricates the chain during operation. Regularly check the oil level through the transparent window and refill as needed with quality bar and chain oil.

7.3 Chain Sharpening and Bar Maintenance

A sharp chain is essential for efficient and safe cutting. Sharpen the chain regularly or replace it when dull. Inspect the guide bar for wear, burrs, or damage. Rotate the guide bar periodically to ensure even wear.

7.4 സംഭരണം

When storing the chainsaw, especially for extended periods, it is advisable to store it with as little bar and chain oil in the tank as possible to minimize potential leakage. Store the chainsaw in a dry, secure location out of reach of children.

8. പ്രശ്‌നപരിഹാരം

This section addresses common questions and issues you might encounter with your Greenworks GD40CS18 Chainsaw.

8.1 Differences from Older Models (e.g., 20312)

• Chain Tension Mechanism: The GD40CS18 features an updated side-adjust chain tensioning system, which uses a wrench (included) for more reliable and professional adjustments compared to older tool-less designs.
• ചെയിൻ ബ്രേക്ക്: This model incorporates a new mechanical chain brake for enhanced safety.
• ബാറ്ററി: The batteries have been upgraded to a new style, offering improved performance.
• Internal Electrics: The unit has an updated look and upgraded internal electrics for increased efficiency and reliability.

8.2 ബാറ്ററി അനുയോജ്യത

Yes, the new style 40V batteries are designed to be compatible with all Greenworks G-Max/Elite 40V tools, allowing you to use your existing Greenworks 40V battery ecosystem.

8.3 Oil Leakage

Greenworks chainsaws are equipped with automatic oilers that release oil to lubricate the chain. Some oil leakage, especially during storage, is normal. To minimize this, store the unit with as little oil in the tank as possible. If you notice excessive leakage, try slightly loosening the oil cap to relieve any pressure buildup. If the issue persists, please contact Greenworks customer support.
