range (see section 4) depending on the materi­
al.
Overload safety device
The power supply is restricted if the power tool
is overloaded to extremes. The power supply is
disconnected completely if the motor jams for
some time. You will need to remove the load
and/or switch off the power tool before you can
use it again.
Temperature cut-out
To avoid the motor overheating, the power con­
sumption is limited at an excessive motor tem­
perature (e.g. if the pressure is too high while
working). If the temperature continues to rise,
the power tool switches off. It can only be
switched on again once the motor has cooled
sufficiently.
Restart protection
The built-in restart protection prevents the
power tool from starting up again automatically
if the power is disconnected during continuous
use. To put the power tool back into operation,
it must first be switched off and then on again.

8.1 Mains connection
WARNING
Unauthorised voltage or frequency.
Risk of accidents
► The mains voltage and the frequency of the
power source must correspond to the
specifications on the name plate.
► In North America, only Festool machines
with the voltage specifications 120 V / 60 Hz
may be used.
The power tool may only be operated with sin­
gle-phase alternating current at a rated voltage
of 220–240 V/50–60 Hz. The power tool has
class II protection against accidents caused by
electric shock in accordance with
the EN 62841 standard and has a built-in inter­
ference suppression module in accordance with
the EN 55014 standard.
The power cable can be extended in the follow­
ing manner, if necessary:
– Length 20 m, cross-section of wires
3×1.5 mm
2
– Length 50 m, cross-section of wires
3×2.5 mm 2
Only use extension cables that are designed for
outdoor use and are marked accordingly.
8.2 Inserting the chainsaw chain
When the power tool is delivered, the
chain is not fitted on the guide strip.
► Remove the chain sprocket cover [2-1] by
turning the tensioning wheel [2-2] anti­
clockwise (Fig. [2]).
► Place the new chain [2-3] on the guide
strip [2-4] and insert it into the power tool.
Ensure that the chain teeth are in the
correct position relative to the direc­
tion of rotation. The direction of rota­
tion is marked by an arrow on the pow­
er tool and under the chain sprocket
cover there is a marking which shows
how the chain is inserted.
► Align the guide chain links on the chain
sprocket [2-8] and turn using the tension­
ing wheel [2-9] so that the opening for
clamping bolt [2-5] engages on the clamp­
ing bolt [2-6].
– Clockwise to loosen: As viewed from
above, the screw moves upwards.
– Anticlockwise to tighten: As viewed
from above, the screw moves down­
wards.
► Then place the chain sprocket cov­
er [2-1] on the retaining screw [2-7] and
tighten it by turning the tensioning
wheel [2-2] clockwise.
► The chain must be tensioned correctly be­
fore being fully tightened (see section 11.1).
8.3 Filling the oil reservoir
NOTICE
The chain lubricating oil reservoir is empty
on delivery.
Operating the saw when the oil reservoir is
not full enough or the lubrication system is
not working properly will damage the saw.
► The oil reservoir must be filled with chain
lubricating oil before commissioning.
The oil reservoir cap of the [1-10] has an open­
ing with an inlet valve for air pressure equalisa­
tion. If the power tool is used in any position
other than horizontal, this may result in the
chain not being lubricated. The oil reservoir
outlet is located on the bottom of the oil reser­
voir. When the power tool is turned over, the
pump cannot draw in any oil.
The oil level in the reservoir is displayed on the
oil level indicator [1-9].
