WARNING! 

Do not cut trees near electrical wires.

WARNING! 

Failure to lubricate the chain will cause 

damage to the bar and chain. Use only a good quality bar 

 

and chain oil designed specifically for use with chain saws. 

NOTE: It is normal for oil to seep from the saw when not in 

use. To prevent seepage, empty the oil tank after each use. 

When storing the unit for a long period of time (3 months or 

longer), be sure the chain is lightly lubricated; this will prevent 

rust on the chain and bar sprocket.

1.  Prior to each cutting session, run through the daily 

checklist (see ƒ. 20).

2.  In the event of an accidental activation, the front hand 

brake will engage in the ON position to stop the machine. 

Reset the safety brake function by returning the front hand 

brake to the OFF position (Fig. 6). 

3.  Insert the battery in the battery compartment. Push to 

make sure it is locked in place (Fig. 7).

4. 

To turn the tool on, hold the chain saw firmly with both 

hands on the handles. Slide the safety lock switch toward 

you, then squeeze the trigger switch. When the chain saw 

is running, you can release the safety lock switch (Fig. 8). 

5. 

To turn the tool off, simply release the trigger switch. 

  NOTE: Do not squeeze the trigger switch until you are 

ready to make a cut.
