Original Instructions
On a fallen tree, a rooted stump has a high potential of
springing back to the upright position during the bucking
cut to separate the log from the stump. Watch out for
springpoles—they are dangerous. Do not attempt to cut
bent branches or stumps that are under tension unless you
are professionally trained and competent to do so.
WARNING!
Springpoles are dangerous and could strike
the operator, causing the operator to lose control of the
chainsaw. This could result in a severe or fatal injury to the
operator. Cutting spring poles should be done by trained users.
TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE
■
Turn off the product, remove the battery pack, and allow
the product to cool down before storing or transporting.
■
Remove all foreign materials from the product. Store the
product in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place that is
inaccessible to children. Keep the product away from
corrosive agents, such as garden chemicals and de-
icing salts. Do not store the product outdoors.
■
Fit the guide bar cover before storing the product or
during transportation.
■
For transportation, secure the product against movement
or falling to prevent injury to persons or damage to the
product.
TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES
Transport the battery in accordance with local and national
provisions and regulations.
Follow all special requirements on packaging and labelling
when transporting batteries by a third party. Ensure that
no batteries can come in contact with other batteries
or conductive materials while in transport by protecting
exposed connectors with insulating, non-conductive caps or
tape. Do not transport batteries that are cracked or leaking.
Check with the forwarding company for further advice.
MAINTENANCE
■
Use only original manufacturer’s replacement parts,
accessories, and attachments. Failure to do so can cause
possible injury, can contribute to poor performance, and
may void your warranty.
■
Servicing requires extreme care and knowledge
and should be performed only by a qualified service
technician. Have the product serviced by an authorised
service centre only.
■
You may make adjustments or repairs described in this
manual. For other repairs, have the product serviced by
an authorised service centre only.
■
Consequences of improper maintenance, removal, or
modification of safety devices, may cause the product to
not function correctly, increasing the potential for serious
injury. Keep the product professionally maintained.
■
Sharpening the chain safely is a difficult precision task
that should be performed only by experienced skilled
professionals. The manufacturer strongly recommends
that a worn or dull chain is replaced with a new one,
available at your authorised service centre. The part
number is available in the product specification table in
this manual.
■
Follow the instructions for lubricating and chain tension
checking and adjustment.
■
After each use, clean the plastic parts with a soft, dry
cloth.
■
Check all nuts, bolts, and screws at frequent intervals
for security to ensure that the product is in safe working
condition. Any part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced by an authorised service centre.
■
Add lubricant directly onto the bar and chain before each
use and every 3 minutes during use.

SAFETY DEVICES
CHAIN CATCHER
The chain catcher prevents the saw chain from being thrown
back towards the operator if the saw chain comes loose or
breaks.
GUIDE BARS
Generally, guide bars with small radius tips have a
somewhat lower potential for kickback. Use a guide bar and
matching chain that is just long enough for the job. Longer
bars increase the risk of loss of control during sawing.
