Operation

Before use

WARNING! Risk of injury! Al-
ways wear protective gloves, safety
goggles, ear muffs, a hard hat and
cut-resistant work clothing when
working with the tool.
CAUTION! Dust may be gener-
ated when sawing dry wood. Wear a
suitable dust mask.
Carry out the following steps before
operating the chainsaw:
• Tensioning the saw chain, p. 48

Meaning
• Battery is fully

• Pouring in chain oil, p. 50
• Charge and insert both batteries
• Checking the chain brake, p. 49
• Checking chain lubrication,
p. 49
NOTICE! Check the tool for damage
after dropping it on the floor or other
impacts. The tool may only be started
when it is in a safe operating condi-
tion.
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 re-
duces and/or prevents wear and
chain damage. We recommend that
the user check the chain tension be-
fore 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 new-
er saw chains.
Chain tension and chain lubrication
have a significant impact on the ser-
vice 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 un-
derside 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.
