Warning! Periodically check the connections to ensure that they are tightened securely.

Extending the saw head (fig. D)

The maximum reach can be achieved by fitting the extension tube (10) between the saw head (4) and the handle (3).

Assembly

Warning! Before assembly, remove the battery from the tool.

Fitting and removing the battery (fig. B)

To fit the battery (11), line it up with the receptacle on the tool. Slide the battery into the receptacle and push until the battery snaps into place.

To remove the battery, push the release button

(13) while at the same time pulling the battery

out of the receptacle.

Warning! To prevent accidental operation, ensure that the battery is removed and that the chain sheath is in place on the saw chain before performing the following operations. Failure to do this could result in serious per- sonal injury.

Removing the saw head (fig. C & D)

If the extension tube (10) is fitted, the saw head must be removed first.

To remove the saw head (4), rest the handle (3) on the ground, loosen the collar (14) and take off the saw head.

Use

Warning! Let the tool work at its own pace. Do not overload.

Charging the battery (fig. A)

The battery needs to be charged before first use and whenever it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs that were easily done before. When charg- ing the battery for the first time, or after prolonged storage, it will only accept an 80% charge.
