Wear hearing protection!
Vibrational values (vector sum of three directions) determined according to EN 62841-4-1.
– Vibration emission value a
h
– Uncertainty K
That the declared vibration total value(s) and the declared
noise emission value(s) have been measured in accordance
with a standard test method any may be used for comparing
one tool to another.
That the declared vibration total value(s) and the declared
noise emission value(s) may also be used in a preliminary as-
sessment of exposure.
That the vibration and noise emissions during actual use of
the power tool can differ from the declared values depend-
ing on the ways in which the tool is used especially what kind
of workpiece is processed; and of the need to identify safety
measures to protect the operator that are based on an estim-
ation of the exposure measures in the actual conditions of
use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as
the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running
idle in addition to the trigger time).
Assembly
For Your Safety
Warning! Switch off and remove battery from power
u
tool before adjusting or cleaning.
Caution! Do not touch the rotating chain.
u
Do not operate the chain saw near other people, chil-
u
dren or animals. Do not operate the chain saw after
drinking alcohol or under the influence of intoxicating
drugs or medication.
Inserting/removing the battery (see figure C)
Note: Using unsuitable batteries can lead to malfunctions or
damage the machine.
Insert the charged battery (17). Make sure that the battery
is fully fitted.
To remove the battery (17) from the machine, press the bat-
tery unlocking button (18) and pull the battery out.
Charging the Battery
Observe the correct mains voltage! The voltage of the
u
power supply must correspond with the data given on
the nameplate of the battery charger. Battery char-
gers marked with 230 V can also be operated with
220 V.
The battery is equipped with temperature monitoring that al-
lows charging only in the temperature range between 0 °C
and 35 °C. In this manner, a high battery service life is
achieved.

Note: The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure
full battery capacity, completely charge the battery in the
battery charger before using for the first time.
The lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time without
reducing its service life. Interrupting the charging procedure
does not cause damage to the battery.
The "Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)" protects the lithium-
ion battery against deep discharging. When the battery is
empty, the product is switched off by means of a protective
circuit: The product no longer operates.
Do not continue to press the On/Off switch after an auto-
matic shut-off of the product. The battery could become
damaged.
Observe the notes for disposal of the battery.
Charging Procedure
The charging procedure starts as soon as the mains plug of
the charger is plugged into a socket outlet and the battery
(17) is inserted in to the charger
Due to the intelligent charging method, the charging condi-
tion of the battery is automatically detected and the battery
is charged with the optimum charging current, depending on
battery temperature and voltage.
This gives longer life to the battery and always leaves it fully
charged when kept in the charger for storage.
Meaning of the Indication Elements
(AL 1810 CV)
Flashing battery charge indicator
The charging process is indicated by the flash-
ing of the battery charge indicator .
Solid light on battery charge indicator
A solid light on the battery charge indicator
signals that the battery is fully charged or that
the temperature of the battery is not within the
permitted charging temperature range, and
can therefore not be charged. The battery is charged as soon
as the allowable charging temperature range is reached.
When the battery is not inserted, a solid light on the battery
charge indicator signals that the mains plug is inserted in the
plug socket and that the charger is ready for operation.
