- Greimich an t-slabhraidh gu daingeann leis an dà làmh.
- Press the lock-off button (safety switch) with one hand, then squeeze the trigger with the other hand to start the chainsaw. Release the lock-off button once the chainsaw is running.
5.2 Dòighean-obrach Gearraidh
- Always maintain a stable and balanced stance.
- Allow the chainsaw to reach full speed before engaging the material.
- Apply light, consistent pressure. Let the saw do the work.

6. Cumail suas
Bidh cumail suas cunbhalach a’ dèanamh cinnteach gum mair an t-slabhraidh agad fad-beatha agus gum bi e ag obair gu sàbhailte.
6.1 Cùram Slabhraidh
- A' geurachadh: The 8660 alloy steel chain is designed for durability. Sharpen the chain regularly with a suitable file to maintain cutting efficiency.
- Teannachadh: Check chain tension frequently. A properly tensioned chain should be snug against the guide bar but still allow you to pull it around by hand. Adjust using the tool-free knob.
- Ath-àite: Replace the chain when it becomes dull beyond sharpening or shows signs of damage.
6.2 Glanadh agus Stòradh
- After each use, remove the battery and clean the chainsaw. Use a brush to remove sawdust and debris from the guide bar, chain, and motor vents.

- Store the chainsaw in a dry, secure location, out of reach of children. Always use the guide bar cover during storage.
