Battery charging
 Always use battery LBP-560-100/LBP-560-200/LBP-560-900 and charge with LCJQ-560 charger.
 Keep charger and battery away from damp conditions and all liquids.
 Do not operate the charger on an easily combustible surface (e.g. paper, textiles) or in an environment with a high
risk of fire.
 Do not cover the charger. Covering the charger will prevent it from cooling.
 Do not operate the charger in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.
Charger can produce sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes - there is a risk of explosion.
 Connect the charger only to the mains of voltage and frequency specified on the rating plate.
 Connect the charger only to an easily accessible wall outlet.
 Never insert objects in the battery's or charger's cooling slots.
 Do not charge or use a defective, damaged or deformed battery and charger.
 Do not open, damage or drop the battery or the charger.
 Fluid may leak from the battery if it is damaged or not used properly; avoid contact with the skin. In the event of ac-
cidental contact, wash the affected areas of the skin with plenty of water and soap. If fluid gets in the eyes, do not
rub. Rinse the eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Also seek medical assistance.
 Never bridge (short circuit) the battery contacts or the charger's terminals with metallic objects.
 Protect from direct sunlight, heat and open flames and never throw battery into fire; there is a risk of explosion.
 In the event of smoke or fire in the charger, disconnect it from the wall outlet immediately.
 If the connecting cord is damaged, immediately disconnect the plug from the power supply to avoid the risk of elec-
tric shock.
 Do not expose battery to microwaves or high pressure.
 Secure the unit against unintentional startup. Remove the battery from the unit before transporting or storing the
unit. Do not use metal containers for transporting batteries.
 To reduce the risk of stumbling, position and mark the connecting cord in such a way that it cannot be damaged or
endanger others.

WARNING
9. Tighten two nuts with the guide bar nose held up.
10. Pull the chain around the guide bar by hand. Loosen the ad-
justment if you feel tight spots.
Proper lubrication of the chain while in operation minimizes
friction between the chain, the guide bar and sprocket.
Use ECHO genuine chain oil or ECHO recommended chain oil
specially formulated for bars and chains for proper lubrication.
These oils contain tackifiers, anti-aging and anti-oxidizing
agents.
Consult your ECHO dealer for the proper chain oil.
Never use waste or reclaimed oil to avoid various malfunctions
on oil system, chain and guide bar.
Lubrication problems caused by the use of improper oil will
void the warranty.
Especially, vegetable based chain oil quickly turns to resin and
adheres to oil pump, chain and guide bar.
It causes malfunctions and shorten product life.
Flush chain oil system with mineral or chemical based chain
oil after use, if it is required to use vegetable oil due to local /
municipal rule or any other reason.
For a short time emergency operation, fresh SAE 10W-30 mo-
tor oil can be used.
