Charging the battery
See also the charger instruction manual.
Notes
• If warm, allow the battery to cool before
charging.
• Do not expose the battery to direct sun-
light or temperatures max. 50 °C for long
periods of time. In particular, avoid pla-
cing the product on radiators or storing it
in vehicles parked in the sun.
Procedure
1. If necessary, remove the battery (17) from
the cordless tool.
2. Slide the battery into the charging slot of
the charger (20).
3. Plug the charger into an outlet.
4. Once charging is complete, disconnect
the charger from the mains supply.
5. Pull the battery charging slot out.

Operation
Before use
WARNING! Risk of injury! Always wear
protective gloves, safety goggles, ear muffs,
a hard hat and cut-resistant work clothing
when working with the tool.
CAUTION! Dust may be generated when
sawing dry wood. Wear a suitable dust
mask.
Carry out the following steps before operat-
ing the chainsaw:
• Tensioning the saw chain, p. 37
• Pouring in chain oil, p. 38
• Charge and insert both batteries
• Checking the chain brake, p. 38
• Checking chain lubrication, p. 38
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 condition.
Meaning
• Battery is fully
charged
• stand-by (No bat-
tery inserted)
Battery is charging
Battery is overheated
Battery is defective

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 reduces and/or pre-
vents wear and chain damage. We recom-
mend that the user check the chain tension
before starting work and at intervals of ap-
prox. 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 newer saw chains.
Chain tension and chain lubrication have a
significant impact on the service 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 underside 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.
CAUTION! Risk of injury due to uninten-
tional start-up. Switch off the tool. Remove
the batteries from the tool.
Checking the chain tension
Pull the saw chain (6) upwards at the top of
the blade bar (5).
• Saw chain can hardly be pulled upwards:
The chain tension is too high. Relax the
saw chain.
• The saw chain can be pulled up so far
that the driving elements are not fully vis-
ible: The chain tension is correct.
• The saw chain can be pulled up so far
that the driving elements are fully visible:
The chain tension is too low. Tension the
saw chain.
