Fitting the battery (Fig. 12)
Press the side pushlock button (26) of the battery
pack and push the battery pack into the mount provid-
ed. When the battery pack is positioned as in Fig. 12,
make sure that the pushlock button latches in place!
To remove the battery pack, proceed in reverse order.
Charging the battery (Fig. 13)
By pressing the red button on the battery, status can
be read based on the green lights.
1. Take the battery pack out of the equipment.
2. Check that your mains voltage is the same as that
marked on the rating plate of the battery charger.
Insert the power plug of the charger (16) into the
mains socket outlet. The light on the power cord
turns green.
3. Insert the battery into the charger. Green flashing
of light on the charger indicates that the battery is
in charging mode.
4. Depending on the battery charge status lights ei-
ther 1, 2 or 3 green lights on the battery.
1 green light: battery 1/3 charged
2 green light: Battery 2/3 charged
3 green LED: Battery is fully charged
The battery pack can become a little warm during the
charging. This is normal. If the battery pack fails to
charge, check:
•
whether there is voltage at the socket outlet
•
whether there is good contact at the charging con-
tacts.
If the battery pack still fails to charge, send
• the charging unit
•
and the battery pack
to our customer service center.
To ensure that the battery pack provides long service,
you should take care to recharge it promptly. You
must recharge the battery pack when you notice that
the power of the cordless equipment drops. Never
fully discharge the battery pack. This will cause it to
develop a defect.
Operation
Please note that the statutory regulations governing
noise abatement may differ from one location to an-
other.
Caution!
Always use the shoulder strap when work-
ing with the equipment. Always switch off the equip-
ment before you take off the shoulder strap. Other-
wise there is a risk of injury.
Put on the shoulder strap as described above, fi t the
required mounting kit and adjust the equipment to suit
your needs.
Saw chain lubrication
Caution!
Always remove the battery from the device
before inspection and adjustment. Always wear pro-
tective gloves when working on the chainsaw to pro-
tect yourself against injury.
Important!
Never operate the chain if it is not lubri
-
cated with saw chain oil. Use of the chainsaw without
saw chain oil or if the oil level is below the viewing
window will result in damage to the chainsaw!
Important!
Be aware of the temperature conditions:
different lubricants with completely different viscosi-
ties are required at different ambient temperatures. At
lower temperatures you will need low viscosity oils in
order to achieve a sufficient lubricating film. However,
if the same low viscosity oil is used during the sum-
mer it will become even thinner due to the ambient
temperatures alone, and as a result the lubricating
film could break down, causing the chain to over-
heat and become damaged. In addition, the chain oil
would burn and produce unnecessary pollutants.
Filling the oil tank (Fig. 9):
•
Place the chainsaw on a flat surface.
•
Clean the area around the oil tank cover (Item 23)
and then clean the oil tank cover.
•
Fill the tank (Item 22) with saw chain oil. In the pro-
cess, make sure that no dirt enters the tank, as this
could cause the oil nozzle to become blocked.
•
Close the oil tank cover (Item 23).
After the chain saw mounting kit has been fitted and
when the equipment is not being used, slip the cut-
ter guard (Fig. 1/Item 13) over the mounted cutter bar
with saw chain in order to prevent injuries.
Mounting telescopic tube and attachment (Fig. 10)
•
Insert the telescopic tube (8) into the tube (24) and
lock it with the locking telescoping tube 1 (7).
•
Now insert the desired attachment into the tele-
scopic tube (7) and lock it with the locking telescop-
ing tube 2 (9).
Ensure that the catch button locks in the hole of the
respective tube (Fig. 10.2)
The desired attachment can also be mounted without
telescopic tube. see Fig. 10.1
Using the shoulder strap
Warning! Always use the shoulder strap when work-
ing with the equipment. Switch off the equipment be-
fore you take off the shoulder strap (risk of injury).
1. Hook the carabiner (5) into the strap holder (25).
(Fig. 11)
2. Slip the shoulder strap over your shoulder. (Fig.
11.1)
3. Adjust the length of the shoulder strap so that the
strap attachment is at waist level.
