Cleaning/Maintenance

Turn off the appliance and, before
doing any servicing, remove the bat-
tery.
When handling the cutting equip-
ment, wear safety gloves. In this
way, you avoid cutting damages.

Cleaning

Do not use cleaning agents or sol-
vents. You may otherwise irreparably
damage the appliance.
• Keep clean the ventilation slots, motor
housing and handles of the appliance.
Use a damp cloth or a brush.
• Saw chain (
with a dry cloth.

General maintenance

Leave any maintenance and servic-
ing work not covered by this manual
to our Service-Center. Use only origi-
nal spare parts.
• Check covers and safety devices for
damages and correct installation. Re-
place as necessary.
• Carefully perform the maintenance tasks
listed in the table on a regular basis
(see "Maintenance intervals").

Resharpening of the saw chain

Storage

• Clean the equipment before putting it
away.
• Put on blade cover (
• Always empty the oil tank before paus-
es in operation lasting several weeks
because the biological chain oil can
become resinous and block the oil out-
let channel. Dispose of used oil in an
environmentally correct manner.
• Store the device in a dry, frost-free,
and dust-protected place and out of
reach of children.
• Remove the battery before storing the
unit for longer periods of time (e.g. hi-
bernation).
• Store the battery only in a partially
charged state. The state of charge
should be 40 – 60 % over a longer
storage period. (two LED lights of the
state of charge display (
up green).
• During a longer storage period, check
the state of charge of the battery and
recharge if necessary roughly every
3 months.
• In order to keep the battery well
charged, avoid exposing the appliance
to extreme heat or cold in storage.
• Store the equipment between 10° C
and 25° C. During storage, avoid ex-
treme cold or heat so the battery does
not lose power.
Because there is a ventilation open-
ing in the oil tank lid, it cannot al-
ways be excluded that oil is emitted
in all device positions. It is therefore
advisable to empty the oil tank be-
fore each storage period.
