WARNING:
Always remove battery pack from your tool when
you are assembling parts, making adjustments,
cleaning, carrying, transporting or when not
in use. Removing battery pack will prevent
accidental starting that could cause serious
personal injury.
NOTE: To avoid serious personal injury, always
remove the battery pack and keep hands clear of
the lock-out button when carrying or transporting
the tool.
To install:
 Place the battery pack in your chain saw. Align
raised rib on battery pack with groove in chain
saw's battery port.
 Make sure the latches on each side of the
battery pack snap in place and that battery
pack is secured in chain saw before beginning

both sides to release the battery pack from the
chain saw.

components.
OPERATION
CAUTION:
Remove battery pack from unit. Fill oil tank with
Ryobi Bar and Chain Lubricant before starting
the chain saw. Failure to lubricate the chain will
cause damage to the bar and chain.
CHAIN OIL SYSTEM
See Figure 6.
 Use Ryobi Bar and Chain Lubricant. It is
formulated to perform over a wide temperature
range with no dilution required.
NOTE: Do not use dirty, used or otherwise
contaminated oils. Damage may occur to the
bar or chain.
 Carefully pour the bar and chain oil into the tank.
 Check and fill the oil tank when battery is
recharged, or as needed.
 Depress the oil tank cap several times to pump
the oil to the chain before starting the saw.
 Depress the oil tank cap every 20-30 seconds
while cutting to keep the chain lubricated.
NOTE: It is normal for lubricant to seep from the
saw when not in use. To prevent seepage, empty
the oil tank after each use. When storing the unit
for a long period of time (three months or longer) be
sure the chain is lightly lubricated; this will prevent
rust on the chain and bar sprocket.
