Pwodwi souview
The Mafell ZSX Twin Ec is a powerful carpentry chainsaw designed for processing large timber components. It features two CUprex motors, allowing for high performance even when power is distributed across two electrical circuits. This design ensures the tool receives the necessary power without overloading the network. It is ideal for longitudinal cuts up to 400 mm deep and facilitates precise angle cuts and overlaps in timber construction.

2. Enstriksyon Sekirite
AVÈTISMAN: Li tout avètisman sekirite, enstriksyon, ilistrasyon, ak espesifikasyon yo bay zouti elektrik sa a. Si w pa swiv tout enstriksyon ki endike anba la yo, sa ka lakòz chòk elektrik, dife, ak/oswa blesi grav.
- Ekipman Pwoteksyon Pèsonèl (PPE): Always wear safety glasses, hearing protection, gloves, and appropriate footwear. A hard hat and leg protection are also recommended.
- Sekirite Zòn Travay: Kenbe zòn travay la pwòp epi byen limen. Zòn ki dezòdone oswa ki fè nwa yo ka lakòz aksidan. Pa sèvi ak zouti elektrik nan atmosfè eksplozif, tankou lè gen likid, gaz oswa pousyè ki ka pran dife.
- Sekirite elektrik: Priz zouti elektrik yo dwe koresponn ak priz la. Pa janm modifye priz la nan okenn fason. Evite kontak kò ak sifas ki konekte ak tè.
- Operasyon zouti: Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Use the correct tool for your application. Do not force the tool.
- Prevansyon kont rebondisman: Be aware of kickback. Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the chainsaw. Ensure the chain is sharp and properly tensioned.
- Antretyen: Dekonekte ploge a nan sous kouran an anvan ou fè nenpòt ajisteman, chanje Pwodwi pou Telefòn, oswa estoke zouti elektrik.
- Timoun ak Moun ki Pa La: Kenbe timoun yo ak moun ki t ap gade yo lwen pandan w ap opere yon zouti elektrik.
3. Enstalasyon ak Asanble
3.1 Debalaj ak enspeksyon
Carefully unpack all components. Inspect the tool for any damage that may have occurred during transit. If any damage is found, do not operate the tool and contact your dealer immediately.
3.2 Installing the Saw Chain
- Ensure the tool is disconnected from the power supply.
- Refer to the chain installation diagram (if available in the full manual) for proper orientation.
- Mount the chain onto the guide bar, ensuring the cutting teeth are facing the correct direction.
- Adjust chain tension according to the manufacturer's guidelines. The chain should be snug but still able to be pulled around the guide bar by hand.
3.3 Attaching the Parallel Stop and Guide Rail
For precise longitudinal cuts, attach the parallel stop and guide rail as follows:
- Slide the parallel stop into the designated slots on the base plate.
- Secure the parallel stop at the desired measurement for your cut.
- For extended precision, align the chainsaw with the Mafell guide rail (Part No. 205934) and secure it.

4. Operasyon Enstriksyon
4.1 Koneksyon pouvwa
The ZSX Twin Ec operates on two 230 V phases. Connect the two power cables to separate 230 V/50 Hz circuits to ensure optimal power distribution and prevent overload.
4.2 Ajiste pwofondè ak ang koupe a
- Koupe Pwofondè: Adjust the guide bar to achieve the desired cutting depth, up to a maximum of 400 mm.
- Ajisteman Ang: The saw can be pivoted from -15° to +60°. Use the angle scale on the base plate to set the precise angle for your cuts.
4.3 Fè yon Koupe
- Asire w ke pyès travay la byen klèamped.
- Position the chainsaw on the workpiece, ensuring the guide rail (if used) is properly aligned.
- Start the motor and allow it to reach full speed before engaging the workpiece.
- Guide the chainsaw smoothly and steadily through the material. Do not force the tool.
- After completing the cut, release the trigger and allow the chain to stop before lifting the tool from the workpiece.

5. Antretyen
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your Mafell ZSX Twin Ec.
5.1 Netwayaj
- After each use, disconnect the tool from the power supply.
- Clean the tool thoroughly, removing sawdust and debris from the motor housing, guide bar, and chain. Use a brush or compressed air.
- Ensure the dust extraction port is clear.

5.2 Chain Lubrication and Sharpening
- Regularly check the chain for sharpness. A dull chain can cause kickback and reduce cutting efficiency. Sharpen or replace the chain as needed.
- Ensure the automatic chain lubrication system (if present) is functioning correctly and the oil reservoir is filled with appropriate chain oil.
