    Why my Makita XCU10 does not start?

      Ashley HicksAug 12, 2025
      Your Makita Chainsaw might not start due to several reasons: the battery cartridge might not be installed—install a charged battery cartridge. Alternatively, the battery might have a low voltage—recharge it, or replace it if recharging isn't effective. Also, check if the main power switch is off; if so, turn it on again.

      If there's no oil on the chain of your Makita Chainsaw, the oil tank might be empty, so fill it up. Another possibility is a dirty oil guide groove, which you should clean. Also, check and adjust the oil delivery with the adjusting screw if the oil delivery is poor.

    • E
      Evelyn ThomasSep 7, 2025
      The Torque Boost mode on your Makita Chainsaw might not be available after replacing the battery cartridge due to usage conditions. Try using the tool in normal mode until the installed battery cartridge is empty, then replace it with a fully charged one, or recharge the battery cartridge.
