Monteringsvejledning
- Install Guide Bar and Chain:
Remove the side cover by loosening the bolt.
Carefully place the chain around the drive sprocket and then align it with the groove of the guide bar.

- Juster kædespændingen:
Use the chain tensioning screw (usually located on the side cover) to adjust the chain tension. The chain should be snug against the guide bar but still able to be pulled freely by hand.
Once tension is correct, fully tighten the side cover bolt.
- Fill Oil Reservoir:
Locate the oil reservoir cap on the chainsaw body.
Fill the reservoir with high-quality bar and chain oil. Do not use motor oil or other lubricants.

Batteriopladning
- Oplad batteriet:

Tilslut opladeren til en almindelig stikkontakt.
The charger's LED indicators will show the charging status (e.g., red for charging, green for fully charged).
Lad batteriet oplades helt inden første brug.
- Installer batteri:
Når det er fuldt opladet, skal du fjerne batteriet fra opladeren.
