90560838 ccs818 chain saw.qxd: chainsaw booklet new
1/8 inch (3mm) away from the guide bar (8) with light force from the
middle finger and thumb as shown in figure H. There should be no
"sag" between the guide bar and the chain on the underside as
shown in figure I.
• To adjust saw chain tension, loosen the allen head screws (11).
• Rotate the tension adjustment screw (23) in the front of the housing
using the flat screwdriver end of the wrench (13) as shown in
figure F.
• Do not over-tension the chain as this will lead to excessive wear
and will reduce the life of the bar and chain. Overtensioning also
reduces the amount of cuts you will get per battery charge.
• Once chain tension is correct, tighten allen head screws (11).
• When the chain is new check the tension frequently (after
disconnecting battery) during the first 2 hours of use as a new chain
stretches slightly.
Chain Oiling
NOTES:
- A high quality bar and chain oil or SAE30 weight motor oil should be
used for chain and bar lubrication. Never use waste oil or very thick
oil. These may damage your chain saw.
- Replace oil reservoir cap immediately after filling oil reservoir.
Failure to do so will allow excessive oil to drip out of oiling outlet.
- It is normal for a small amount of excess oil to drip from the chain
saw bar and chain during storage. Do not store chain saw on top of
any thing that may be damaged by the dripping oil.
• Remove the oil reservoir cap (4) and fill the oil reservoir (3) with the
above recommended oil. For best results, keep reservoir over half
full.
• Lubricate the saw chain as shown in figure J by pressing the bulb
on the oil reservoir cap (4) twice before making each cut. Hold bulb
down for 3-4 seconds.
• Because the saw uses a gravity fed oiling system, the saw should be
pointed downward and slightly to the right when applying oil to the chain.
Transporting Saw
• Always remove the battery (6) from the tool (figure K) and cover
the guide bar (8) with the scabbard (12) (figure L) when

transporting the saw. See the warning under "Battery Cap
Information" for additional information on transporting the battery.
Operating the Chain Saw
WARNING: Read and understand all instructions. Failure to
follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious personal injury.
• Guard Against Kickback which can result in severe injury or
death. See Important Safety Instructions "Guard Against
Kickback", to avoid the risk of kickback.
• Do not overreach. Do not cut above chest height. Make sure
your footing is firm. Keep feet apart. Divide your weight evenly on
both feet.
• Use a firm grip with your left hand on the front handle (16) and
your right hand on the rear handle (15) so that your body is to the
left of the guide bar.
• Do not hold chain saw by front hand guard (5). Keep elbow of left
arm locked so that left arm is straight to withstand a kickback.
WARNING: Never use a cross-handed grip (left hand on the
rear handle and right hand on the front handle).
WARNING: Never allow any part of your body to be in line
with the guide bar (8) when operating the chain saw.
• Never operate while in a tree, in any awkward position or on a
ladder or other unstable surface. You may lose control of saw
causing severe injury.
• Keep the chain saw running at full speed the entire time you
are cutting.
• Allow the chain to cut for you. Exert only light pressure. Do not
put pressure on chain saw at end of cut.
Connecting the Battery
• Place the battery (6) into the tool as shown in figure N and be
certain that it is inserted fully into the tool cavity until it "clicks" into
place. To remove the battery from the tool, press down on the
release button (18) on the back of the battery (figure C) and slide
out.
