Insert the charged battery (21). Make sure that the battery
is fully fitted.
To remove the battery (21) from the machine, press the bat-
tery unlocking button (22) and pull the battery out.

Charging the Battery

Pay attention to the mains voltage. The voltage of the
u
power source must match the voltage specified on the
rating plate of the charger.
The battery is equipped with temperature monitoring that al-
lows charging only in the temperature range between 0 °C
and 35 °C. In this manner, a high battery service life is
achieved.
Note: The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure
full battery capacity, completely charge the battery in the
battery charger before using for the first time.
The lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time without
reducing its service life. Interrupting the charging procedure
does not cause damage to the battery.
The "Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)" protects the lithium-
ion battery against deep discharging. When the battery is
empty, the product is switched off by means of a protective
circuit: The product no longer operates.
Do not continue to press the On/Off switch after an auto-
matic shut-off of the product. The battery could become
damaged.
Observe the notes for disposal of the battery.
Operation
Always read the operating and safety information be-
u
fore use.
Always check the tool and chain condition, the oil
u
level and correct assembly before use. Only use the
chain saw if it is in perfect condition.
Always wear suitable clothing and personal protective
u
equipment.
Always make sure that the environment is dry and
u
free from obstacles and persons not involved.
Never use the chain saw on a ladder or above shoulder
u
height.
Never over-reach or work with arms fully extended.
u
Always hold the chain saw firmly with both hands.
u
The saw chain is automatically lubricated with chain oil dur-
ing operation via the oil outlet (7).
The chain saw is not supplied filled with oil.
Be sure to fill the chain saw with chain oil before using it.
It is important to use only biodegradable chain lubricants
(according to RAL-UZ 48) to avoid damage to the chain saw.
The recommended Bosch biodegradable chain saw oil can
be found in the accessories.
Filling the oil reservoir: (see figure C)
– Set the chain saw on any suitable surface with the oil filler
cap (19) facing upward.
F 016 L81 992 | (25.01.2023)
– Clean the area around the oil filler cap (19) with a cloth
and unscrew the cap.
– Add Bosch biodegradable chain saw oil until the oil level
can be viewed through the oil tank opening (25). You can
check the oil level through the viewing window (25) dur-
ing operation. When the minimum level is reached, top up
with new oil.
Switching On and Off (see figure E1)
Pull the hand guard/activation lever for the kickback
u
brake (5) from position ➋ to position ➊ towards the
front handle (4). If the hand guard/activation lever for
the kickback brake (5) has not been moved, then the
kickback brake has not been deactivated before use
and the chain saw will not start.
Always push the hand guard/activation lever for the
u
kickback brake forward to the deactivated position
after each use.
– Remove the chain guard (18).
– Hold the chain saw as shown in figure E2.
– Pull the activation lever for the kickback brake (5) back-
wards to the front handle.
– To start the machine, first push the lock-off button for
the On/Off switch (20) and then press the On/Off switch
(2) and keep it pressed. When the machine is running,
the lock-off button can be released again.
– To switch off the power tool, release the On/Off switch
(2).
– The kickback brake is a safety mechanism activated by
the wrist through the front hand guard (5) when kickback
occurs. The chain stops immediately. This reduces the
risk of kickback injury. Try to avoid kickback.
– Periodically push the activation lever for the kickback
brake (5) forward during operation to test the function of
the kickback brake. Stop operation immediately if the
chain saw does not stop immediately.
Note: Do not stop the chain saw after sawing by actuating
the kickback brake (5).
Checking the Lubrication (see figure E3)
– Tilt the chain saw so that the chain bar is 20 cm away
from a sheet of paper lying on the ground.
– Switch on the chain saw and let it run for approx.
1 minute until oil splashes can be seen on the sheet of pa-
per to confirm that oil is being pulled through the auto-
matic lubrication system.
Note: Operating the chain saw without chain oil or when the
oil level is below the minimum mark will result in damage to
the chain saw.
Note: Oil becomes denser at lower temperatures, which de-
creases the flow rate of oil.
Note: Saw chain life and cutting capacity depend on op-
timum lubrication.
