Setup

Battery Charging

Before first use, fully charge the 2.0Ah Lithium-Ion battery using the provided charger. Connect the charger to a standard power outlet and insert the battery. The indicator lights on the charger will show the charging status. A full charge typically takes approximately 60 minutes.

Chain Installation and Tensioning

The Greenworks 24V Mini Chainsaw features tool-free chain tensioning for quick and easy adjustments. Refer to the detailed diagrams in the printed manual for precise installation steps. Ensure the chain is properly seated on the bar and tensioned correctly to prevent slippage and ensure safe operation. The chain should be snug but still allow for slight movement when pulled away from the bar.

Operating Instructions

Starting the Chainsaw

To start the chainsaw, ensure the battery is fully charged and securely inserted. Engage the safety lock, then press the trigger. The chainsaw features an easy 2-step starting system for user convenience.

Cutting Techniques

Hold the chainsaw firmly with one hand, maintaining a stable stance. Position the 6-inch bar and chain against the material to be cut. Apply steady, even pressure. The chainsaw is designed for effortless cutting of branches up to 6 inches in diameter, ideal for pruning and light wood cutting tasks. Always be aware of kickback potential and maintain control of the tool.

Maintenance

Chain Oiling

The chainsaw requires manual chain oiling. Regularly apply chain lubricant to the chain and bar to ensure smooth operation and extend the life of the components. A small bottle of chain oil is typically provided with the unit.

Cleaning and Storage

After each use, disconnect the battery and clean the chainsaw thoroughly. Remove any sawdust, debris, and resin from the chain, bar, and motor housing. Store the chainsaw in a dry, secure location, out of reach of children, with the chain cover in place.

Troubleshooting

• Chainsaw does not start: Ensure the battery is fully charged and properly inserted. Check that the safety lock is disengaged before pressing the trigger.
• Chain not staying tight: Verify that the tool-free chain tensioning knob is securely tightened. Over time, chains can stretch and require re-tensioning. If the issue persists, inspect the chain and bar for damage or wear.
• Reduced cutting performance: The chain may be dull or improperly tensioned. Sharpen the chain or adjust its tension as needed. Ensure sufficient chain lubrication.
