OPERATION

This product will accept Ryobi One+ 18 V lithium-ion battery packs and Ryobi One+ 18 V nickel-cadmium battery packs.

For complete charging instructions, refer to the Operator’s Manual for the battery packs and chargers listed in the General Safety Rules.

TO INSTALL BATTERY PACK

See Figure 6.

Place the battery pack in your chain saw. Align raised rib on battery pack with groove in chain saw’s battery port.

Make sure the latches on each side of the battery pack snap in place and that battery pack is secured in chain saw before beginning operation.

TO REMOVE BATTERY PACK

See Figure 6.

Locate latches on side of battery pack and depress both sides to release the battery pack from the chain saw.

CAUTION:

When placing battery pack in your chain saw, be sure raised rib on battery pack aligns with groove in chain saw's battery port and latches snap in place properly. Improper assembly of battery pack can cause damage to internal components.

CAUTION:

Remove battery pack from unit. Fill oil tank with Ryobi Bar and Chain Lubricant before starting the chain saw. Failure to lubricate the chain will cause damage to the bar and chain.

Chain Oil System

See Figure 7.

Use Ryobi Bar and Chain Lubricant. It is formulated to perform over a wide temperature range with no dilution required.

NOTE: Do not use dirty, used or otherwise contaminated oils. Damage may occur to the bar or chain.

Carefully pour the bar and chain oil into the tank.

Check and fill the oil tank when battery is recharged, or as needed.

Depress the oil tank cap several times to pump the oil to the chain before starting the saw.

Depress the oil tank cap every 20-30 seconds while cut- ting to keep the chain lubricated.

NOTE: It is normal for oil to seep from the saw when not in use. To prevent seepage, empty the oil tank after each use. When storing the unit for a long period of time (three months or longer) be sure the chain is lightly lubricated; this will prevent rust on the chain and bar sprocket.
