Switch off the device and remove
the battery before carrying out any
maintenance work.
1. Ensure that the chain brake has
been released, that is, that the
chain brake lever (6) is pulled up
against the front grip (5).
2. Unscrew the fastening bolt (10)
(
)
.
3. To tension the saw chain, turn the
screw (11) for the chain quick-
tensioning system in clockwise
direction .
To loosen the tension, turn the
screw (11) in
counter-clock-
wise direction .
4. Tighten up the fastening bolt (10)
again (
).
With a new saw chain, you must
readjust the chain tension after at
least 5 cutting operations.
Chain lubrication
The rail and chain must never be
without oil. If the cordless chainsaw
is used with too little oil, the cut-
ting performance and lifespan of
the saw chain will decrease as the
chain will become blunt more quick-
ly. You can identify a case of too
little oil where smoke development
or discoloration of the rail occurs.
The chainsaw is equipped with an auto-
matic oiling system. As soon as the motor
is speeded up, the oil also fl ows faster to
the chain bar (8).
Switch off the device and remove
the battery before carrying out any
maintenance work.
Filling up with chain oil:
• Check the oil fi ll level and regularly top
up with oil (13).
• Use bio-oil; this product contains ad-
ditives that reduce wear and tear and
does not damage the pump system. You
can order this from our online shop (see
“Spare parts/Accessories”).
• If you have no bio-oil available, use
chain lubrication oil with low adhesive
additive content.
• Empty the oil tank before longer peri-
ods (6-8 weeks) of non-use.
1. Unscrew the oil fi ll cap (4) and fi ll
up with chain oil.
2. Wipe off any spilled oil and close
the cap again.
Always switch off the device
and allow the motor to cool
before fi lling with chain oil.
There is a risk of fi re if oil
overfl ows.
Inserting/removing the
rechargeable battery
1. To insert the battery (16) into the de-
vice, push the battery along the guide
rails (23) into the device. You will hear
them click into place.
2. To remove the battery (16) from the de-
vice, press the release button ( 16a)
