2. Retighten the Side cover clamp knob firmly
Oil filling
Note:
The chain saw is shipped without oil in it. The chain
saw must never be used without oil .
Warning:
Always ensure that the chainsaw is switched off
and the battery removed before making any adjustments.
1. Remove oil tank cap (2)
and fill the tank with chain
oil. Replace the oil tank
cap and tighten well.
2. Lubrication of the chain
and bar is a manual
operation and should
be performed prior to
each cut and periodically
through the cut if the cut
is large. To lubricate the
chain and bar press the oil
pump/primer on the top of
the oil cap approx 6 times.
3. Use good quality
ecological chain oil to
ensure long life for the
moving parts. Do not use
recovered or pre-used
oil containing impurities.
Make sure that no dirt
gets into the oil tank.
IMPORTANT:
Oil feed to
the chain is assisted by the
pump, but is also GRAVITY
fed. If you leave the chainsaw
with oil in the tank it will slowly
continue to oil the chain. If not
in use oil will leak onto the
surface the saw is fitting.
WHEN NOT IN USE, drain oil
from the tank and after use
always sit the saw on a cloth in case of residual oil from the
chain etc on.
Important information - product care
This chainsaw uses Lithium-Ion battery cells. Care
MUST be taken to ensure both the safety and life of the
pack is maintained. Ensure you have read all of the safety
notes in the previous pages before using the chainsaw.
Safety devices and circuitry for this tool are located in
the battery pack of this tool. The battery pack is a vital
component, not just for the power source, but also for
the full safety control for both the charging and also the
tool operation. Treat the battery pack with care and within
the guidelines of this manual. If the pack does become
immersed in water or any fluids, or is subject to a severe
drop etc., or it does not operate within the guidelines of
this manual, immediately STOP using the battery pack
and have it checked.
During operation, avoid overloading the tool. If the tool is
overloaded it will automatically STOP. Overloading may
occur for a number of reasons including when the tool
is pushed too hard. If you do overload the tool during
operation refer to the “Overload” section in this manual.
Note:
When the battery of the tool is at the lower end of the
charge, the tool is more susceptible to the overload condition.
As mentioned above, the battery pack is an integral
component of this tool and is fitted with thermal safety
devices. Running the tool at close to maximum load, or
continual resetting of the overload will cause the battery
