4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Powering On and Off
To operate the chainsaw, first insert a charged battery. Press and hold the safety lock button, then press the trigger to start the motor. Release the trigger to stop the motor. Always engage the safety lock when not actively cutting.
4.2 Automatic Oiling System
The chainsaw features a built-in automatic oiler. Fill the oil bottle with appropriate chain lubricant and pour it into the designated oil reservoir. Press the oiler button periodically during operation to ensure continuous lubrication of the chain and guide bar. This extends the life of the chain and improves cutting performance.

4.3 Cutting Techniques
Hold the chainsaw firmly with both hands (if using the auxiliary handle). For optimal performance and safety, ensure the chain is properly tensioned and lubricated. Begin cutting by placing the moving chain against the material. Allow the saw to do the work; do not force it. For larger branches, make a relief cut on the underside first to prevent pinching.

5. Maintenance
5.1 Chain Tension Adjustment
Proper chain tension is crucial for safe and efficient operation. A chain that is too loose can derail, and a chain that is too tight can cause excessive wear and reduce cutting performance. To adjust:
- Loosen the hex cap screws slightly (do not remove).
- Rotate the blue adjustment knob to increase or decrease chain tension.
- Manually pull the chain down; proper tension allows 3-5 teeth of movement from the guide bar.
- Once tension is correct, securely tighten both hex caps with the provided wrench.
