allow metallic objects into your charger
or battery pack connections because
of an electrical failure and hazard will
occur.
NOTE: Your battery pack is UNCHARGED and
you must charge once before use.
The battery charger supplied is matched to
the Li-Ion battery installed in the machine. Do
not use another battery charger.
2. CHARGING YOUR BATTERY PACK
The Li-ion battery is protected against deep
discharging. When the battery is empty,
the machine is switched off by means of a
protective circuit.
In a warm environment or after heavy use, the
battery pack may become too hot to permit
charging. Allow time for the battery to cool
down before recharging.
3. TO REMOVE OR INSTALL BATTERY
PACK (See Fig. G)
Depress the Battery Pack Release Button to
remove the Battery Pack from your tool. After
recharging, insert the Battery Pack into battery
port (See Fig. G). A simple push and slight
pressure will be sufficient until a click is heard.
Check to see if the battery is fully secured.
NOTE: When removing the battery pack,
hold it firmly to avoid dropping and
injury.
4. BATTERY STATUS LED’S (See Fig. H)
NOTE: The Status LED’s will indicate the
battery condition when the button on
the battery is pressed.
The LED’s constantly senses and displays the
battery condition as follows:
Press the button “POWERTEST”, the light
button is illuminated.
When the three green lights are illuminated,
the battery is in a highly charged condition.
When two lights ( ) are illuminated, the
battery is in a moderately charged condition.
When only one green light ( ) is illuminated,
the battery charge is depleted.
IMPORTANT: When only one light is
illuminated, your battery is overly
discharged, even though the tool may
still be capable of working. Continuing
to operate your tool with the battery in
this discharged condition may reduce
the life and performance of your battery.
5. SWITCHING ON AND OFF (See Fig. I)
For switching on the machine, press the
Lock-off Button (3), then fully press the On/Off
Switch (2) and hold in this position. The Lock-
Off Button (3) can now be released.
For switching off, release the On/Off Switch (2).
Cutting
IMPORTANT: Is the oil reservoir
filled? Check the Oil Level Window
(18) prior to starting and regularly
during operation. Refill oil when oil level
is low. A full oil tank will last approx. 20
minutes depending on sawing intensity
and stops (See Fig. J).
Check recent replaced chain tension
about every 10 minutes during
operation.
1. Install the battery pack into the machine
(See Fig. G).
2. Make sure section of log to be cut is not
laying on the ground. This will keep the
Chain (8) from touching the ground as it
cuts through the log. Touching the ground
while the Chain is moving is dangerous
and will dull the Chain.
3. Use both hands to grip saw. Always use
left hand to grip front handle and right
hand to grip rear handle. Use a firm grip.
Thumbs and fingers must wrap around
saw handles (See Fig. K).
4. Make sure your footing is firm. Keep feet
shoulder width apart. Divide your weight
evenly on both feet.
5. When ready to make a cut, push the
Lock-off Button (3) completely in with the
right thumb and squeeze the trigger. This
will turn the saw on. Releasing the trigger
will turn the saw off. Make sure the saw is
running at full speed before starting a cut.
6. When starting a cut, slowly place the
moving chain against the wood. Hold saw
firmly in place to avoid possible bouncing
or skating (sideways movement) of saw.
7. Guide the saw using light pressure and
do not put excessive force on the saw. The
