CORDLESS CHAIN SAW SAFETY

WARNINGS

1) General chain saw safety warnings

a) This chain saw is not intended for tree felling.

Use of the chain saw for operations diﬀ erent than

intended could result in serious injury to the operator or

bystanders.

b) The operator must be trained in safe climbing

techniques and in the use of all recommended

additional safety equipment, such as harness,

loops, straps, rope and karabiners, and other

fall arrest systems for the operator and the saw.

Establishing a secure location in the tree at each

working position is essential to avoid a hazardous

situation.

c) Wear eye protection, ear protection and protective

equipment for head, forearms, hands, legs and feet

that is suitable for tree climbing. Adequate protective

equipment will reduce personal injury from ﬂ ying debris

or accidental contact with the saw chain.

d) Cut wood only. Do not use chain saw for purposes

not intended. For example: do not use chain saw

for cutting metal, plastic, masonry or non-wood

building materials. Use of the chain saw for operations

diﬀ erent than intended could result in a hazardous

situation.

e) Always hold the chain saw with your right hand

on the rear handle and your left hand on the front

handle. Holding the chain saw with a reversed hand

conﬁ guration increases the risk of personal injury and

should never be done.

f) Hold the chain saw by insulated gripping surfaces

only, because the saw chain may contact hidden

wiring. Saw chains contacting a "live" wire may make

exposed metal parts of the chain saw "live" and could

give the operator an electric shock.

g) Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain

when the chain saw is operating. Before you start

the chain saw, make sure the saw chain is not

contacting anything. A moment of inattention while

operating chain saws may cause entanglement of your

clothing or body with the saw chain.

h) When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert

for spring back. When the tension in the wood ﬁ bres

is released, the spring loaded limb may strike the

operator and/or throw the chain saw out of control.

i) Use extreme caution when cutting thin branches.

The slender material may catch the saw chain and be

whipped toward you or pull you oﬀ balance.

j) Follow all instructions when clearing jammed

material, storing or servicing the chain saw.

Make sure the switch is oﬀ and the battery pack

is removed. Unexpected actuation of the chain saw

while clearing jammed material or servicing may result

serious personal injury.

k) Carry the chain saw by the front handle with the

chain saw switched oﬀ and away from your body.

When transporting or storing the chain saw, always

ﬁ t the guide bar cover. Proper handling of the chain

saw will reduce the likelihood of accidental contact with

the moving saw chain.

l) Follow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning

and changing the bar and chain. Improperly

tensioned or lubricated chain may either break or

increase the chance for kickback.

2) Causes and operator prevention of kickback:

Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide

bar touches an object, or when the wood closes in and

pinches the saw chain in the cut. (Fig. 2)

Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden reverse

reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back towards the

operator.

Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide

bar may push the guide bar rapidly back towards the

operator.

Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control

of the saw which could result in serious personal

injury. Do not rely exclusively upon the safety devices

built into your saw. As a chain saw user, you should

take several steps to keep your cutting jobs free from

accident or injury.

Kickback is the result of machine misuse and/or

incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can

be avoided by taking proper precautions as given

below:

a) Maintain a ﬁ rm grip, with thumbs and ﬁ ngers

encircling the chain saw handles, with both hands

on the saw and position your body and arm to allow

you to resist kickback forces. (Fig. 3) Kickback

forces can be controlled by the operator, if proper

precautions are taken. Do not let go of the chain saw.

b) Do not overreach. This helps prevent unintended tip

contact and enables better control of the chain saw in

unexpected situations.

c) Only use replacement guide bars and saw chains

speciﬁ ed by the manufacturer. Incorrect replacement

guide bars and saw chains may cause chain breakage

and/or kickback.

d) Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and

maintenance instructions for the saw chain.

Decreasing the depth gauge height can lead to

increased kickback.

NOTE

The recharging time may vary according to temperature

and power source voltage.

CAUTION

When the battery charger has been continuously used,

the battery charger will be heated, thus constituting

the cause of the failures. Once the charging has been

completed, give 15 minutes rest until the next charging.

4. Disconnect the charger’s power cord from the

receptacle.

5. Hold the charger ﬁ rmly and pull out the battery.

NOTE

Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger after

use, and then keep it.

Regarding electric discharge in case of new

batteries, etc.

As the internal chemical substance of new batteries and

batteries that have not been used for an extended period

is not activated, the electric discharge might be low when

using them the ﬁ rst and second time. This is a temporary

phenomenon, and normal time required for recharging

will be restored by recharging the batteries 2–3 times.

How to make the batteries perform longer.

(1) Recharge the batteries before they become completely

exhausted.

When you feel that the power of the tool becomes

weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery. If

you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric

current, the battery may be damaged and its life will

become shorter.

(2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures.

A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after

use. If such a battery is recharged immediately after

use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate,

and the battery life will be shortened. Leave the battery

and recharge it after it has cooled for a while.

CAUTION

○ If the battery is charged while it is heated because it

has been left for a long time in a location subject to

direct sunlight or because the battery has just been

used, the charge indicator lamp of the charger lights

for 0.3 seconds, does not light for 0.3 seconds (oﬀ for

0.3 seconds). In such a case, ﬁ rst let the battery cool,

then start charging.

○ When the charge indicator lamp ﬂ ickers (at 0.2-second

intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in

the charger’s battery connector. If there are no foreign

objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is

malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service

Center.

INSPECTION AND PREPARATION

PRIOR TO USE

Prior to use, make the following inspection and preparation.

WARNING

○ To prevent accidents, always perform steps 1 to 3

ensuring the battery is removed from the body.

○ Do not secure the lock-oﬀ lever in the slid position.

If the switch is accidentally engaged, the unit may

unexpectedly start and injury may occur.

1. Ensuring the switch is oﬀ

○ If you insert the battery without knowing whether the

switch is engaged, the unit may unexpectedly start,

which may result in an accident.

○ When the switch is engaged while the lock-oﬀ lever is

in the slid position, the unit switches on, and when the

switch is released, the unit switches oﬀ .

2. Checking the saw chain tension

○ If the saw chain tension is incorrect, there is a risk of

damage to the saw chain or guide bar and malfunction.

Referring to steps 5 to 7 “Installing (replacing) saw

chain,” ensure an appropriate tension is set.

○ While the saw chain is still new, it is particularly

stretchy, so periodically check the tension and adjust

as required.

○ Also check the nut is securely tightened.

3. Checking the chain oil

○ This unit is delivered without chain oil inside. Ensure

the oil tank is ﬁ lled with the chain oil provided before

use. (Fig. 15)

○ Periodically check the oil sight glass during work and

replenish oil as required.

○ If the chain oil supplied runs out, use HiKOKI chain oil

sold separately or equivalent chain oil on the market.

○ The chain oil lubricates automatically.

The discharge rate for auto lubrication is factory preset

to the maximum.

To reduce the discharge rate, turn the oil pump adjuster

on the right side of the oil sight glass clockwise.

(Fig. 16)

NOTE

○ The oil tank capacity is about 70 ml.

Make sure no oil leaks or overﬂ ows from the oil tank

when replenishing the chain oil.

○ We recommend that you stock up with chain oil.

If you continue working without chain oil, the saw chain

may burn through, or the motor may fail.

○ Be careful to avoid dust or other foreign matter from

entering the oil tank.

If dust and other foreign matter enter the oil tank, the

unit may fail.

○ Chain oil left in the tank may leak due to the structure of

this unit. Although this does not indicate a malfunction,

it may soil the storage location, so be careful.

When storing, empty the oil from the oil tank, and place

an item under the main body which can absorb any

leaks.

○ Replenish the oil after every approximately 10 minutes

of operation. (*Varies depending on the cutting usage

conditions)

4. Installing the battery (Fig. 5)

As shown in Fig. 5, push ﬁ rmly until it clicks into place.

CAUTION

Securely attach the battery.

If the battery is not securely attached, it may come oﬀ

and injury may occur.

5. Checking operation of chain brake (Fig. 17)

WARNING

○ Although the chain brake is an emergency stop device,

this is not completely reliable. Operate carefully to

avoid the risk of kickback.

○ The chain brake is intended for use in emergencies and

when starting up. Do not use it indiscriminately.

○ To avoid impaired movement of the chain brake due to

buildup of sawdust etc., clean regularly.

○ The chain brake is an important component to ensure

safe use.

If you have any concern regarding the chain brake

operation, request repair from your HiKOKI Authorized

Service Center.

CUTTING PROCEDURES

WARNING

○ When working in trees, wear appropriate protection on

your eyes, head, hands, legs, and arms, as well as slip-

resistant foot protection.

○ Prior to operation, ensure that chain brake works.

○ During use, grip the handle securely with both hands.

(Fig. 3)

○ When cutting timber from the bottom, ensure the saw

chain does not impact with the timber.

If the unit is pushed back, injury may occur.

○ During work breaks or after work, always switch the unit

oﬀ , and remove the battery from the main body.

Always monitor the workplace and surrounding area,

ensure there are no objects which could cause injuries,

accidents or failure, and if any are present, remove them

in advance.

In particular, when establishing a foothold for working,

ensure there is no instability or any object which could be

tripped over.

Ensuring the unit is switched oﬀ

If the storage battery is inserted while the switch is

unknowingly engaged, the unit may unexpectedly

start, which may result in an accident.

Installing the battery (Fig. 5)

As shown in Fig. 5, push ﬁ rmly until it clicks into place.

Engaging the switch

Ensuring the saw chain is not in contact with the timber,

engage the switch, and start cutting when the saw

chain speed has increased.

CAUTION

○ When switching the unit on, ensure the saw chain does

not contact with material or anything else.

○ During use, be careful to ensure the saw chain does

not contact with other material or object. In particular,

when you have ﬁ nished cutting, be careful to ensure it

does not touch the ground.

NOTE

Reﬁ ll the oil tank early to prevent the unit running out of

oil.

1. General cutting procedures

(1) Switch ON the power while keeping the saw slightly

away from the wood to be cut. Start sawing only after

the unit has reached full speed.

(2) When sawing a slender piece of wood, press the base

section of the guide bar against the wood and saw

downward as shown in Fig. 21.

(3) When sawing a thick piece of wood, press the spike on

the front section of the unit against the wood and cut it

with a lever action while using the spike as a fulcrum as

shown in Fig. 22.

(4) When cutting wood horizontally, turn the unit body to

the right so that the guide bar is below and hold the

upper side of the front handle with your left hand. Hold

the guide bar horizontally and place the spike that is

on the front of the unit body on the lumbar. Using the

spike as a fulcrum, cut into the wood by turning the rear

handle to the right. (Fig. 23)

(5) When cutting into wood from the bottom, touch the

upper part of the guide bar to the wood lightly. (Fig. 24)

(6) As well as carefully studying the handling instructions,

ensure practical instruction in the operation of the

chain saw prior to use, or at least practice working with

the chain saw by cutting lengths of round timber on a

sawing trestle.

(7) When cutting logs or timbers which are not supported,

support them properly by immobilizing them during

cutting using a sawing trestle or other proper method.

16

English

CAUTION

○ When cutting wood from the bottom, there is a danger

that the unit body may be pushed back toward the user

if the chain strongly impacts with the wood.

○ Do not cut all the way thorough the wood by starting

from the bottom since there is the danger of the guide

bar ﬂ ying up out of control when the cut is ﬁ nished.

○ Always prevent the operating chain saw from touching

the ground or wire fences.

2. Branch cutting

(1) Cutting branches from a standing tree:

A thick branch should initially be cut oﬀ at a point away

from the trunk of the tree.

First cut in about one third of the way from below, and

then cut oﬀ the branch from above. Finally, cut oﬀ the

remaining portion of the branch even with the trunk of

the tree. (Fig. 25)

CAUTION

○ Always be careful to avoid falling branches.

○ Always be alert for chain saw recoil.

(2) Cutting branches from fallen trees:

First cut oﬀ branches that do not touch the ground, then

cut oﬀ those which touch the ground. When cutting

thick branches that touch the ground, ﬁ rst cut in about

half of the way from above, then cut the branch oﬀ from

below. (Fig. 26)

CAUTION

○ When cutting oﬀ branches which touch the ground, be

careful that the guide bar does not become bound by

pressure.

○ During the ﬁ nal cutting stage, beware of the log

suddenly rolling.

3. Log cutting

When cutting a log positioned as shown in Fig. 27, ﬁ rst

cut in about one third of the way from below, then cut

down all the way from above. When cutting a log that

straddles a hollow as shown in Fig. 28, ﬁ rst cut in about

two thirds of the way from above, then cut upward from

below.

CAUTION

○ Ensure the guide bar does not become bound in the log

by pressure.

○ When working on inclined ground, be sure to stand on

the uphill side of the log. If you stand on the downhill

side, the cut-oﬀ log may roll toward you.

4. Cutting a log laid ﬂ at

Make sure the log is stable.

Push the spike against the log. Use the spike as a

fulcrum about which the handle can be lifted to facilitate

cutting. (Fig. 29)

5. Cutting a log supported at both ends

Start by sawing to a depth of approximately one third from

the top, then saw from underneath to complete the cut.

The guide bar may become stuck within the saw cut

if you attempt to cut all the way through from the top.

(Fig. 30)

Precaution for cutting work

For large-scale operation or non-stop work

This tool comes with an over-heat protection circuit

that protects the electronic parts that control the

rechargeable battery. During sustained use or

during operations under high loads generated by

pressure against the tool, tool temperature will rise

and eventually trigger the over-heat protection circuit,

which will shut down the tool.

If this happens, let the tool cool for a length of time.

When the temperature drops, it will again become

possible to use the tool. When the rechargeable battery

has to be exchanged during continuous operation, let

the tool rest for about 15 minutes.

Gripping/pushing force of chain saw

Always grip the chain saw securely.

In addition, do not force the chain saw more than

necessary. When cutting, additional force exerted on

the chain saw will not accelerate the cutting speed.

This will strain the motor, impair the performance, and

damage or cause malfunction of the motor or guide bar.

Use the unit in the range where the saw chain is at a

reasonable speed.

In particular, when the saw chain stops (becomes

jammed) due to the excessive force, it may cause an

injury or failure of the unit.

Chain catcher

○ The chain catcher is located on the power head just

below the chain to further prevent the possibility of a

broken chain striking the chain saw user.

○ When the saw chain is cut, replace it with a new one

referring to “Installing (replacing) saw chain”.

SHARPENING OF THE CHAIN BLADE

WARNING

To prevent accidents, always turn oﬀ the switch and

remove the battery from the main body.

CAUTION

Always wear thick gloves when handling the saw chain.

NOTE

Sharpen the saw chain and adjust the depth gauge at

the central position on the guide bar, with the saw chain

attached to the main body.

When the sharpness of saw chains deteriorates, the motor

and each part of the body are burdened and the eﬃ ciency

declines.

For optimal performance of the unit, frequent maintenance

is necessary to keep the saw chain sharp.

1. Blade sharpening

Use a 4 mm diameter round ﬁ le.

The round ﬁ le should be held against the chain blade

so that one-ﬁ fth of its diameter extends above the top

of the blade, as shown in Fig. 31.

Sharpen the blades by keeping the round ﬁ le at a 30°

angle in relation to the guide bar, as shown in Fig. 32.

File the blades by gently pushing the round ﬁ le in the

direction of the grip.

Make sure the round ﬁ le does not touch the saw chain

when drawing back the ﬁ le.

Ensure that all saw blades are ﬁ led at the same angle,

or the cutting eﬃ ciency of the tool will be impaired.

Appropriate angles for sharpening the blades correctly

are shown in Fig. 33. (Round ﬁ le is sold separately.)

2. Adjustment of depth gauge

WARNING

○ Do not sand the top part of the bumper tie strap and

bumper drive link, nor cause the shape of said parts to

deform.

○ Adjustment of depth gauges must be in line with the

predetermined dimensions and shapes, otherwise the

risk of kickback may increase, causing an injury.

Bumper tie strap Bumper drive link

Depth gauges shall be all lined up in the same manner

because they are used to adjust depth at the position

where the cutter inlays into the wood.

When sharpening the saw chain, be sure to check the

depth gauge every two or three times. (Fig. 34)

17

English

Place a depth gauge jointer on the saw chain, leave the

gauge visible at the groove, and use a ﬂ at ﬁ le to bevel

the portion out of the depth gauge jointer. (Fig. 35)

(Depth gauge jointer and ﬂ at ﬁ le are sold separately.)

After ﬁ ling away the depth gauge, round oﬀ the front

side of the depth gauge as it was. (Fig. 36)

After sharpening the saw chain, place it into chain oil to

wash oﬀ the ﬁ lings.

If ﬁ lings are not cleaned oﬀ , the saw chain and guide

bar will quickly wear while in use.

The depth gauge jointer can also be used when

dressing with a round ﬁ le. (Fig. 37)

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

After operation, perform inspection and maintenance of

each part when storing the unit.

WARNING

During maintenance and inspection, always switch oﬀ

the unit and remove the battery from the main body.

CAUTION

Always wear thick gloves when handling the saw chain.

1. Inspection of saw chains

○ Occasionally inspect the saw chain. In the event of

any abnormality, replace it with a new one referring to

“Installing (replacing) saw chain” .

○ Inspect the chain tension and check If it is correctly

tightened.

○ Stop using the unit when the saw chain becomes blunt

and sharpen it referring to “Sharpening of the chain

blade”.

○ After use, carefully lubricate the saw chain and guide

bars with oil for rust-prooﬁ ng.

NOTE

When cleaning the side cover, sprocket, chain oil

spout, and guide bar, see the procedure “Installing

(replacing) saw chain” and remove the saw chain.

2. Cleaning the side cover and sprocket (Fig. 38)

Clean and remove any swarf or dust left inside the

parts.

3. Cleaning the chain oil spout (Fig. 39)

Before cleaning the chain oil spout, remove the side

cover and guide bar.

4. Cleaning the guide bar (Fig. 40)

When sawdust and similar become clogged in the

groove of the guide bar or oil spout, the oil may not ﬂ ow,

which may result in the unit failing.

Remove the guide bar and clean any sawdust clogged

in the groove after use and when replacing the saw

chain. (Refer to “Installing (replacing) saw chain.”)

5. Cleaning the chain brake (Fig. 41)

Use a brush to remove any swarf from the gap to the

saw body.

6. Inspecting the chain catcher (Fig. 42)

The chain catcher is designed to protect the operator

from being struck by the saw chain if the chain comes

loose or is severed.

The chain catcher is integrated into the side cover.

Check to conﬁ rm that the chain catcher is not damaged.

7. Inspecting the mounting screws

Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure that

they are properly tightened. Should any of the screws

be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure to do so

could result in serious hazard.

8. Maintenance of the motor

The motor unit winding is the very “heart” of the power

tool.

Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not

become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.

9. Cleaning the battery installation compartment

and the battery (Fig. 43)

WARNING

Wear protective glasses and a dust mask when

cleaning with an air blow gun.

Failure to do so may result in inhalation or exposure of

the eyes to debris or dust.

Use a brush or air blow gun to remove any swarf or dust

and keep the saw clean.

NOTE

○ Allowing swarf and dust to build up during use may

cause the battery to fall oﬀ or other accidents.

Allowing swarf and dust to build up can also result in

malfunctions, including faulty contact between the

battery and the terminals.

○ After cleaning, check to conﬁ rm that the battery can be

easily detached and reattached to the tool body.

10. Cleaning of the outside

When the chain saw is stained, wipe with a soft dry

cloth or a cloth moistened with soapy water. Do not use

chloric solvents, gasoline or paint thinner, for they melt

plastics.

11. Storage

○ Clean all parts thoroughly. Coat metal parts with a thin

layer of corrosion inhibitor.

○ Be sure to repair any damaged areas before storing.

○ When storing the unit, perform cleaning and

maintenance of each part and mount the chain case to

the guide bar.

○ Store the power tool and battery in a place in which

the temperature is less than 40°C and out of reach of

children.

NOTE

Storing Lithium-ion Batteries

Make sure the lithium-ion batteries have been fully

charged before storing them.

Prolonged storage (3 months or more) of batteries with

a low charge may result in performance deterioration,

signiﬁ cantly reducing battery usage time or rendering

the batteries incapable of holding a charge.

However, signiﬁ cantly reduced battery usage time may

be recovered by repeatedly charging and using the

batteries two to ﬁ ve times.

If the battery usage time is extremely short despite

repeated charging and use, consider the batteries

dead and purchase new batteries.

CAUTION

In the operation and maintenance of power tools, the

safety regulations and standards prescribed in each

country must be observed.
