The battery (10) will be fully charged in approximately 8
hours. It can be removed at any time or left in the connected
charger indefinitely.
1 hour charger (fig. C)
To charge the battery (10), remove it from the tool and
insert it into the charger (23). The battery (10) will only
fit into the charger (23) in one way. Do not force. Be sure
that the battery (10) is fully seated in the charger (23).
Plug in the charger (23).
Check that the red charging indicator comes on. If the
green ‘end of charge’ indicator comes on then the
battery is too hot and cannot be charged. If this
happens, remove the battery (10) from the charger (23),
let the battery cool down for approximately 1 hour and
re-insert it.
After approximately 1 hour of charging, the red charging
indicator will go off and the green ‘end of charge’ indicator
will come on. The battery is now fully charged.
Remove the battery (10) from the charger (23).
Installing and removing the saw chain (fig. D - F & H)
Always wear protective gloves when installing or
removing the saw chain (8). The saw chain (8) is
sharp and can cut you when it is not running.
Place the tool on a firm and stable surface.
Loosen the 2 Allen screws (14) using the Allen key (21)
provided. Remove the Allen screws (14).
Remove the chain cover assembly (6).
Turn the chain tension adjustment screw (7) counter
clockwise to allow the guide bar (9) to recede and to
reduce the tension on the saw chain (8).
Remove the old saw chain (8) from the sprocket (15)
and the guide bar (9).
Place the new saw chain (8) in the groove of the guide
bar (9) and around the sprocket (15). Make sure that the
teeth are facing the correct direction by matching the
arrow on the saw chain (8) with the arrow on the chain
cover assembly (6).
Make sure that the slot (17) in the guide bar (9) is over
the location pins (18) and that the hole (20) below the
slot is located over the adjustment pin (19).
Fit the chain cover assembly (6) and the 2 Allen screws
(14).
Tighten the Allen screws (14) using the Allen key (21)
provided.
Adjust the chain tension as described below.
Checking and adjusting the chain tension (fig. D and G)
Check the saw chain tension. The tension is correct
when the saw chain (8) snaps back after being pulled
away 3 mm from the guide bar (9) with light force from
the middle finger and thumb. There should be no ‘sag’
between the guide bar (9) and the saw chain (8) on the
underside.
To adjust the tension:
Loosen the 2 Allen screws (14).
Turn the chain tension adjustment screw (7) clockwise.
Warning! Do not over-tension the chain as this will lead to
excessive wear and will reduce the life of the bar and chain.
Once the chain tension is correct, tighten the 2 Allen
screws (14).
Warning! When the saw chain is new, check the tension
frequently during the first two hours of use as a new saw
chain stretches slightly.
Filling the oil reservoir (fig. H)
Remove the oil cap (3) and fill the reservoir (4) with the
recommended chain oil. You can see the oil level in the
oil reservoir (4). Refit the oil cap (3).
Periodically switch off and check the oil level; if it is less
than a quarter full, remove the battery (10) from the tool
and refill the reservoir (4) with the correct oil.
Oiling the chain (fig. H)
The saw chain (8) must be oiled before each use and after
cleaning using only the correct grade of oil (cat. no. A6027).
Lubricate the saw chain (8) by pressing the bulb on the
oil cap (3) twice before making each cut, holding the
bulb down for 3-4 seconds.
Residual risks
Additional residual risks may arise when using the tool which
may not be included in the enclosed safety warnings. These
risks can arise from misuse, prolonged use etc.
Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual
risks cannot be avoided. These include:
Injuries caused by touching any rotating/moving parts.
Injuries caused when changing any parts, blades or
accessories.
Injuries caused by prolonged use of a tool. When using
any tool for prolonged periods make sure you take
regular breaks.
Impairment of hearing.
Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed
when using your tool (example:- working with wood,
especially oak, beech and MDF).
