Same principle as models E 14, E 20:
• Pinion (1) on rotor (2) of a universal motor
drives the ring gear (3).
The chain sprocket (4) is mounted on the ring
gear’s shaft.
• Spur gear (5) drives the oil pump.

• Metal pump housing.
Oil pump 1208 640 3250 is supplied as a

1.3=Chain braking system
2 3
A mechanical coasting brake is integrated with an
inertia chain brake. It is designed to bring the saw 1
chain to a standstill when the operator lets go of
the trigger switch. When the unit is off, the
coasting brake locks the brake drum in position.
Only when the trigger switch is squeezed does the
brake band release the brake drum.

2.=Repairs
If the unit is started up in the course of repairs
or maintenance work, always observe all local
regulations and the safety precautions outlined
in the owner’s manual.
A service manual is available for the new electric
saws. The procedures described in chapters
"Chain Brake" and "Stator" differ considerably from
those for models E 14, E 20. Special attention
should be paid to these chapters during repair
work.
Service accessories, special servicing tools and
aids are listed in the service manual.
Repair times
The repair times specified for the E 14 also apply
to models E 140 and E 180 C.

Most of these PDFs embed fonts with a shifted character map, so the text above was recovered rather than copied — read it as a faithful but imperfect transcription, and treat the page image above each block as the authority where the two disagree — the figures exist only there, because they are vector drawings that text extraction cannot keep.
