What to do if my Oregon Saw motor does not run?
If your Oregon Saw motor isn't running, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the chain brake is disengaged by confirming the hand guard is in its rearmost position. Check that the battery is fully charged. The trigger lock-out must be depressed. Also, verify the battery pack is fully inserted and the battery port and terminals are clean.
