Operating Instructions
Before operating, ensure all safety precautions are understood and followed.
Starting the Chainsaw:
- Ensure the battery is inserted and fully charged.

Cutting Techniques:

- Maintain Balance: Always stand on a stable surface and maintain good footing. Use the shoulder strap for better control.
- Branch Support: When cutting branches, ensure they are supported to prevent them from falling unexpectedly or pinching the chain.
- Cutting Angle: The angled head allows for versatile cutting. Position the chainsaw head to achieve the most effective and safest cutting angle for the branch.
- Avoid Kickback: Be aware of the kickback zone at the tip of the guide bar. Avoid cutting with this area.
- Two-Stage Cut: For larger branches, make an undercut first (about 1/3 of the way through) to prevent bark stripping, then complete the cut from the top.
- Overhead Work: Be cautious of falling debris. Never cut directly overhead.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your chainsaw.
General Maintenance:
- Cleaning: After each use, remove the battery and clean the chainsaw head, guide bar, and chain with a brush and damp cloth. Remove any sawdust or debris.
- Chain Lubrication: The chainsaw has a self-lubricating system. Regularly check the oil level in the tank and refill with appropriate chain oil as needed.
- Chain Sharpening: A dull chain reduces cutting efficiency and increases kickback risk. Sharpen the chain regularly or replace it when necessary. Refer to the chain manufacturer's instructions for sharpening.
- Chain Tension: Check chain tension before each use. The chain should be snug but still able to be pulled freely around the guide bar by hand. Adjust as per instructions in the full manual.
- Guide Bar Maintenance: Flip the guide bar periodically to ensure even wear. Clean the guide bar groove to remove debris.
Storage:
- Remove the battery before storing.
- Clean the tool thoroughly.
- Store the chainsaw in a dry, secure place, out of reach of children and away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
- Use the chain cover to protect the chain and prevent accidental contact.
