6.2 Battery (Fig. 2a/ Item 10)
The equipment is fitted with a lithium-ion
battery. The battery pack is completely closed and
maintenance free.
6.2.1 Battery charge level indicator
(Fig. 2a/Item 12)
The battery pack is equipped with a pushbutton
for checking the charge level. Simply press the
pushbutton (Figure 2a/Item 12) to read off the
battery level from the LEDs of the battery indicator
(Fig. 2a/ Item 13):
•
All 3 level monitoring LEDs are lit:
Battery charge level is high.
•
2 level monitoring LEDs are lit: Battery charge
level is decreasing. Stop work as soon as
possible.
•
1 level monitoring LED is lit: Battery is flat. Stop
work IMMEDIATELY and charge the battery.
Otherwise the battery’s service life will be
greatly shortened.
6.2.2 Charging the battery
•
Pull the pushlock button (Fig. 2a/ Item c) and
pull the battery pack (10) out of the equipment.
•
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
into the mains socket outlet. The LED A (Fig. 2b)
will then illuminate in green.
•
Push the battery onto the charger as shown in
Fig. 2a. The LED B will illuminate in red while
LED A is still green (Fig. 2b).
•
The battery is fully charged when LED A and B
(Fig. 2b) are illuminated in green.
•
Pull the pushlock button (Fig. 2a/ Item c) and
pull the battery pack (10) out of the charger.
If the rechargeable battery pack fails to charge, check
whether there is voltage at the socket outlet.
If you still fail to charge the battery pack, please call
our customer service center on 1300 922 271.
Timely recharging of the battery will help it serve you
well for a long time. You must recharge the battery
pack when you notice that the power of the
equipment drops.
Never allow the battery pack to become fully
discharged. This will cause it to develop a defect.
6.3 Saw chain lubrication
Caution: Always take out the battery before
performing any checks or adjustments. Always
wear protective gloves when working on the
chainsaw to protect yourself against injury.
Caution: Never operate the chain if it is not
lubricated with saw chain oil. Use of the
chainsaw without saw chain oil as it will
damage the chainsaw.
Caution: Be aware of the temperature
conditions: different lubricants with completely
different viscosities 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 summer 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 overheat and become damaged.
In addition, the chain oil would burn and produce
unnecessary pollutants.
Filling the oil tank:
•
Place the chainsaw on a flat surface.
•
Clean the area around the oil tank cover
(Fig.6/Item 14) and then clean the oil tank cover
(Fig.6/Item 14).
•
Fill the tank with saw chain oil. In the process,
make sure that no dirt enters the tank, as this
could cause the oil nozzle to become blocked.
•
Close the oil tank cover.

7.1 Starting the Chainsaw
•
Hold the chainsaw by the handles with both
hands as shown in Fig. 7 (thumbs under the
handles).
•
Press and hold the safety switch (Fig. 1/Item 9).
•
Switch on the chainsaw at the ON/OFF switch
(Fig. 1/Item 8).
•
You can then release the safety lock-off.
Switching off
•
Release the ON/OFF switch (Fig. 1/Item 8).
•
The integrated brake will bring the running
chainsaw to a standstill within a very short
space of time.
•
Always take out the battery when you stop
working, even if it is only for a short time.
Caution: Always carry the saw by the front
handle (Fig. 1/Item 3). If the battery is in the
saw and you carry it by the rear handle (which is
where the switches are located), then there is a
risk that you could accidentally press the safety
lock-off and the ON/OFF switch at the same time,
and the chainsaw could inadvertently start up.
Please watch out for the cutters as they slow
down to a standstill.
