This article explains how to prepare, start, and safely operate your electric chainsaw.

⚠️ Safety Notice

Before using the chainsaw:

• Ensure the hand guard is in the operating position by pulling it backwards towards the front handle.
• Never operate the chainsaw without biodegradable chain oil.
• Regularly check the chain oil level.
• Ensure the chain is correctly tensioned. A loose chain may come off during use and cause injury.
• Check the work area for hazards, including other people, obstacles, sharp edges, and trip hazards.
• Ensure the mains cable is correctly connected and secured in the cable strain relief.

Starting the Chainsaw

1. Disengage the chain brake by pulling the chain brake lever backwards towards the front handle.
2. Hold the chainsaw firmly with both hands:
   • Left hand on the front handle.
   • Right hand on the rear handle.
3. Ensure your fingers and thumbs fully grip the handles.
4. Press and hold the safety lock button using your right thumb.
5. While holding the safety lock button, press the On/Off trigger switch.
6. The chainsaw will start immediately at operating speed.
7. Begin cutting only once the chain is moving.

Stopping the Chainsaw

• Release the On/Off trigger switch.
• The chainsaw will stop immediately.

Important Information

• The safety lock button is only used to unlock the On/Off trigger and does not need to be held after the chainsaw has started.
• Never place the chainsaw onto the material you intend to cut while the chain is stationary.
• Always allow the chain to reach operating speed before making contact with the material.
• Failure to follow these instructions may increase the risk of kickback.

This article explains what to check if the chain on your electric chainsaw is not moving.

⚠️ Safety Notice

Ensure the chainsaw is switched off and disconnected from the power supply before carrying out any inspection or adjustments.

Wear suitable protective gloves when handling the chain.

Possible Causes & Basic Checks

Check the Chain Brake

• Ensure the chainsaw is switched on and ready for use.
• Check that the chain brake is fully disengaged.
• If the chain brake is engaged, the chain will not rotate.

Check the Chain and Bar Condition

• Inspect the chain and guide bar for any visible damage.
• If either the chain or bar is damaged, they will need to be replaced before further use.

Chain Tension

• Ensure the chain is correctly tensioned.
• Each chain link should be able to lift slightly from the bar, but the drive links should remain seated in the guide bar groove.
• The chain should be able to rotate smoothly around the bar when moved by hand (using gloves).

If the Issue Persists

If the chain still does not move after completing the checks above, please contact our Technical Support Team for further assistance.

✔️ Summary

• Ensure the chain brake is disengaged
• Check for damage to the chain and bar
• Confirm correct chain tension
• Test chain movement safely with gloves

This article explains what to check if your electric chainsaw is not lubricating the chain correctly.

⚠️ Safety Notice

Ensure the chainsaw is switched off and disconnected from the power supply before carrying out any checks.

Possible Causes & Basic Checks

Check Chain Oil Level

• Ensure the oil reservoir is filled with the correct chain lubricating oil.
• Refill if the oil level is low or empty.

Check for Oil Leaks

• Inspect the chainsaw for any visible oil leaks.
• If any leaks are present, please contact our Technical Support Team for further assistance.

How to Check Oil is Being Delivered

To test whether the chainsaw is lubricating correctly:

1. Hold the chainsaw at approximately a 45-degree angle to the ground.
2. Run the chainsaw briefly.
3. You should see oil being ejected and a light trace left on the ground.

If the Issue Persists

If no oil is being delivered to the chain, there may be a blockage in the oil lines. In this case, please contact our Technical Support Team for further assistance.

✔️ Summary

• Check chain oil level and type
• Inspect for oil leaks
• Test oil delivery at a 45-degree angle

This article explains how to correctly adjust the chain tension on your electric chainsaw.

⚠️ Safety Notice

An incorrectly tensioned chain may break, derail, or come off the guide bar, which can cause serious injury.

Ensure the chainsaw is switched off and disconnected from the power supply before carrying out any adjustments.

Test the chain tension before each use and check it regularly during operation.

Procedure

1. Disengage the chain brake.
2. Turn the adjustment knob anti-clockwise to loosen the chain.
3. Turn the adjustment knob clockwise to tighten the chain.
4. Adjust until the chain is correctly tensioned.
5. When lifting a single chain link, there should be a gap of approximately 2–3 mm between the chain and the guide bar.

Tips

• Adjust chain tension regularly during the run-in period.
• Re-tighten immediately if the chain becomes loose, wobbles, or comes out of the guide groove.
• Chain tension affects the lifespan of both the chain and guide bar, so it should be checked frequently.
• Chain tension may change as the chain heats up during use and may require readjustment.
• New chains typically require more frequent adjustments until fully run in.

If the Issue Persists

If you are still unable to tension the chain correctly, please contact our Technical Support Team for further assistance.

✔️ Summary

• Disengage chain brake before adjusting
• Use adjustment knob to tighten or loosen chain
• Maintain 2–3 mm lift from bar
• Check tension regularly during use
