To charge the battery (12), insert it into the charger (19).
u
The battery will only fit into the charger in one way. Do
not force. Be sure that the battery is fully seated in the
charger.
Plug in the charger and switch on at the mains.
u
The charging indicator (18) will blink.
The charge is complete when the charging indicator (18)
switches to continuously on. The charger and the battery
can be left connected indefinitely. The charging indicator will
switch on as the charger occasionally tops up the battery
charge.
Charge discharged batteries within 1 week. Battery life will
u
be greatly diminished if stored in a discharged state.
Leaving the battery in the charger
The charger and battery pack can be left connected with the
charging indicator glowing indefinitely. The charger will keep
the battery pack fresh and fully charged.
Charger diagnostics
If the charger detects a weak or damaged battery, the charg-
ing indicator (18) will flash red at a fast rate. Proceed as
follows:
Re-insert the battery (12).
u
If the charging indicators continues flashing red at a fast
u
rate, use a different battery to determine if the charging
process works properly.
If the replaced battery charges correctly, the original
u
battery is defective and should be returned to a service
centre for recycling.
If the new battery gives the same indication as the original
u
battery, take the charger to be tested at an authorised
services centre.
Note: It may take as long as 30 minutes to determine that
the battery is defective. If the battery is too hot or too
cold, the charger indicator will alternately blink red, fast
and slow, one flash at each speed and repeat.
State of charge indicator (fig. N)
The battery is fitted with a state of charge indicator. This can
be used to display the current level of charge in the battery
during use and during charging.
Press the state of charge indicator button (17).
u
Filling the oil reservoir (fig. O)
Remove the oil cap (3) and fill the reservoir with the
u
recommended chain oil. You can see the oil level in the oil
level indicator (11). Refit the oil cap (3).
Periodically switch off and check the oil level indicator
u
(11); if it is less than a quarter full, remove the battery from
the chainsaw and refill with the correct oil.
(Original instructions)
Oiling the chain
We recommend that you use only Black & Decker oil during
the lifetime of your chainsaw because mixtures of different oils
could lead to the oil becoming degraded, which can drastically
shorten the lifetime of the saw chain and create additional
risks.
Never use waste oil, thick oil or very thin sewing machine oil.
These may damage your chainsaw .Only use the correct
grade of oil (cat. no. A6023-QZ).
The chain saw will automatically feed oil to the chain dur-
u
ing use.
Switching on (fig. O)
Grip your chainsaw firmly with both hands. Pull the lock-off
u
button (2) with your thumb and then push the on/off switch
(1) to start.
When the motor starts, remove your thumb from the lock-
u
off button (2) and grip the handle firmly.
Do not force the tool, allow the tool to do the work. It will do
a better and safer job at the speed for which it is designed.
Excessive force will stretch the saw chain (6).
If the saw chain (6) or guide bar (7) becomes
jammed
Switch the tool off.
u
Remove the battery (12).
u
Open the cut with wedges to relieve the strain on the
u
guide bar (7). Do not try to wrench the chainsaw free.
Start a fresh cut.
u
Felling (fig. P, Q & R)
Inexperienced users should not attempt to fell trees. The user
may suffer injury or cause damage to property as a result of
failure to control the direction of fall, the tree may splinter or
damaged/dead branches may fall during cutting.
The safe distance between a tree to be felled and bystanders,
buildings and other objects is at least 2 1/2 times the height of
the tree. Any bystander, building or object within this distance
is at risk from being struck by the tree when felled.
Before attempting to fell a tree:
Make sure that there are no local by-laws or regulations
u
that would prohibit or control the felling of the tree.
Consider all conditions that may affect the direction of fall,
u
including:
The intended direction of fall.
u
The natural lean of the tree.
u
Any unusual heavy limb structure or decay.
u
Surrounding trees and obstacles including overhead
u
lines and underground drains.
The wind speed and direction.
