21 Transporting the Chain Saw and

Battery

21.1 Chain Saw

When transporting the chain saw:
► Slide a chain scabbard over the guide bar so that it covers
the entire guide bar.
► When transporting the saw by hand, hold it by the front
handle with the guide bar pointing backwards, opposite
the direction in which you are walking.
► When transporting the saw in a vehicle, cover the guide
bar with a chain scabbard. Secure and position the chain
saw to prevent turnover, impact and damage.
Your saw comes standard with a chain scabbard that
matches the cutting attachment. If you use guide bars of
different lengths on the saw, the length of the chain
scabbard must be matched to the guide bar to reduce the
risk of injury. It should cover the full length of the guide bar.
21.2 Battery
WARNING
To reduce the risk of a short circuit, which could lead to
electric shock, fire and explosion, never transport the battery
in a metal container or near metal objects (e.g., paper clips,
nails, coins, keys), @ 9.

conducting electricity, or near metal objects (e.g., paper
clips, nails, coins, keys).
► If you are transporting the battery in a vehicle, secure it
and its container to prevent turnover, impact and damage.
