Important: The chainsaw is not filled with oil. It is essential to fill
with oil before use. Never operate the chainsaw without chain
oil or at an empty oil tank level, as this will result in extensive
damage to the product.
Important: To allow proper ventilation of the oil tank, small
breather channels are provided between the oil filler cap and the
strainer to prevent leakage. Ensure machine is left in a horizontal
position when not in use.
Caution: Do not touch the ground with the chain. Ensure safety
clearance of 12” (30 cm).
Filling oil tank:
WARNING: Remove the battery pack before filling the oil tank.
Assembly
LUBRICATION
NOTE:
Chain life and cutting capacity depend on optimum lubrication. Therefore, the chain
is automatically oiled during operation.
1. Set chainsaw on any suitable surface with oil filler cap facing upward.
2. Clean area around the oil filler cap with a cloth, and unscrew the cap by turning it
counter-clockwise.
3. Add chain oil until tank is full.
4. Avoid dirt or debris entering oil tank. Refit oil filler cap and tighten by turning clockwise
until hand tight.
It is important to use only the recommended bar and chain oil to avoid damage to the
chainsaw. Never use recycled/old oil. Use of non-approved oil will void the warranty.
Do not swallow. If swallowed, call a physician immediately. Keep out of reach of
children. Store away from heat or open flame.
Checking the Automatic Oiler
Proper functioning of the automatic oiler can be checked by running the chainsaw and
pointing the tip of the chain guide bar towards a piece of cardboard or paper on the ground.
If an increasing oil pattern develops on the cardboard, the automatic oiler is operating fine. If
there is no oil pattern, despite a full oil reservoir, contact a CTC customer service agent or a
CTC-approved service agent.
