Operation

Initial Operation

Inserting the Battery

Insert the charged battery 

17

 from the rear in-

to the handle of the power tool. Push the bat-
tery completely into the handle until the red 
stripe can no longer be seen and the battery 
is securely locked.

Note: 

The power tool will not operate unless 

both locking levels are engaged.

Switching On and Off

Hold the chain saw as described in section 
“Working with the Chain Saw”.
To 

start

 the machine, 

first

 push the lock-off 

button for the On/Off switch 

2

 and 

then

 press 

the On/Off switch 

3

 and keep it pressed.

When the machine is running, the lock-off but-
ton can be released again.
To switch off the machine, 

release

 the On/Off 

switch 

3

.

Note: 

For safety reasons, the On/Off switch 

3

cannot be locked; it must remain pressed dur-
ing the entire operation.

Note: 

Do not stop chain saw after sawing by 

actuating the front hand guard 

6

 (activating 

the kickback brake).

Kickback brake (see figure F)

The 

kickback brake

 is a safety mechanism ac-

tivated through the front hand guard 

6

 when 

kickback occurs. Chain stop response time is 
0,15 seconds.
The following function check should be car-
ried out at regular intervals. Push front hand 
guard 

6

 forward (position

o

) and start the 

chain saw. The chain must not start. To deac-
tivate the kickback brake, release On/Off 
switch 

3

 and pull hand guard 

6

 backwards 

(position

n

).

Note: 

When the kick brake is activated and 

the chain saw is attempted to be started a 
warning sound (“beep”) can be heard. To 
start chain saw release On/Off switch 

3

 and 

pull hand guard 

6

 backwards (position

n

), 

then press the On/Off switch 

3

.

Working with the Chain Saw

Before Cutting

Before starting operation and periodically 
during cutting, carry out the following checks:
– Is the chain saw in a fail-safe condition?
– Is the oil reservoir filled? Check oil level 

gauge prior to starting and regularly during 
operation. Refill oil when oil level has 
reached the bottom edge of the viewing 
glass. The oil tank filling will last approx. 
15 minutes, depending on sawing intensity 
and stops.

– Is the saw chain properly tensioned and 

sharp? Check chain tension every 10 min-
utes during operation. Upon initial opera-
tion, new chains can lengthen considera-
bly. The condition of the chain influences 
the cutting performance. Only a sharp 
chain protects from overload.

– Is the kickback brake deactivated and its 

function ensured?

– Are you wearing the required protective 

equipment? Wear safety glasses and hear-
ing protection. Further protective equip-
ment for head, hands, legs and feet is rec-
ommended. Suitable protective clothing 
reduces the danger of injury from thrown 
about cutting material and accidental 
touching of the saw chain.

Kickback (see figure F)

Kickback is the sudden backward/upward 
motion of the chain saw, occuring when the 
chain (at the tip of the chain bar) comes in 
contact with a log or wood, or when the chain 
becomes jammed.
When kickback occurs, the chainsaw reacts 
unpredictable and can cause heavy injuries to 
the operator or bystanders.
Particular attention must be given when saw-
ing sidewards, slanted or during length cuts, 
as the gripping teeth 

8

 usually can not be ap-

plied.
To avoid kickback:
– Saw with the chain bar at a flat angle.
– Never work with a loose, widely stretched 

or heavily worn out saw chain.

– Sharpen the saw chain as specified.
– Never saw above shoulder height.
– Never work with the tip of the chain.
– Always hold a chain saw firmly with both 

hands.

– Always use a Bosch low-kickback saw chain.
– Apply the metal gripping teeth 

8

 for leverage.

– Ensure correct chain tension.

General Behaviour (see figures F – I)

Always hold the chain saw firmly with both 
hands. Front handle with the left hand and 
rear handle with the right hand. Fully grip 
both handles with thumb and fingers at all 
times during operation. Never operate chain 
saw using only one hand.
Use the chain saw only with secure footing. 
Hold the chain saw at the right-hand side of 
your body.
The chain must be running at full speed be-
fore it makes contact with the wood. Use the 
gripping teeth 

8

 to support the chain saw on 

the wood. Use the gripping teeth as a leverage 
point while cutting.
Reset the gripping teeth at a lower point 
when sawing thicker logs or tree trunks. For 
this, pull the chain saw slightly backwards un-
til the gripping teeth release, and reposition 
at lower level to continue sawing. Do not re-
move the chain saw completely out of the cut.
Do not force the saw chain while cutting, let 
the chain do the work, using the gripping 
teeth 

8

 to apply minimal leverage pressure.

Never operate the chain saw with arms fully 
extended. Do not attempt to saw areas which 
are difficult to reach, or on a ladder. Never 
saw above shoulder height.
Sawing is optimized when the chain speed re-
mains steady during cutting.
Beware when reaching the end of the cut. The 
weight of the chain saw changes unexpected-
ly as it cuts free from the wood. Danger of in-
jury to the legs and feet.
Always remove the chain saw from a wood cut 
while the saw chain is running.
