Always switch off the device and
allow the motor to cool before
filling with chain oil. There is a
risk of fire if oil overflows.

Operating the chainsaw

Switch on the chainsaw only when
chain bar, saw chain and sprocket
chain wheel covering are correctly
assembled. Ensure the voltage
of the mains connection agrees
with the label on the device. Make
sure you have a secure stance.
Make sure before you start that the
electric chain saw is not touching
anything.
Caution! Saw can oil up, see notes
on "Assembly"

with running motor, with the left hand.
To do so, push the chain braking
