12 Before Starting Work
To reduce the risk of short circuit and fire:
Keep the battery guides free of foreign matter. Clean
as necessary with a dry cloth or soft, dry brush.
Improper storage can result in unauthorized use, damage
to the chain saw, battery and charger, and an increased
risk of fire, electric shock and other personal injury or
property damage.
Engage the chain brake by moving the front hand
guard forward to and remove the battery from the
chain saw before storing.
Never store the chain saw and charger with the
battery inserted.
Before storing, always unplug the charger from the
wall outlet and remove the battery.
Store the chain saw, battery and charger indoors in
a dry, secure place out of the reach of children and
other unauthorized users.
Never store the battery in the chain saw, in the
charger, in a metal container or in a container with
metal objects (e.g., paper clips, nails, coins, keys).

WARNING
Read and follow the battery and charger safety precautions
and instructions in this manual, @ 9 and @ 10. Make sure
the charger and its components are dry and not damaged;
operate the charger indoors at an appropriate ambient
temperature, @ 10.
WARNING
Since the battery and charger heat up during the charging
process, do not operate the charger on a combustible
surface or in a location where combustible gases, liquids,
vapors, dusts or other materials and substances are
present, @ 10.
To set up the charger:
Insert the plug (4) into a properly installed wall outlet (5)
matching the voltage and electrical frequency stated on
the charger's rating plate (1).
The charger runs a self-test immediately after it is plugged
in. The charger LED (2) will glow green for about
1 second, then it will glow red briefly before going out.
Once the self-test is complete, the charger is ready to
charge the battery.
