17.1 Inserting the Battery
WARNING
Never use a malfunctioning, damaged, cracked, leaking or
deformed battery, @ 8. Use and store the battery only
within an ambient temperature range of 14 °F to 122 °F (- 10
°C to 50 °C), @ 8.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of unintended activation, never store the
battery in the chain saw, @ 22.2.
To insert the battery:
► Engage the chain brake, @ 16.1.
► Place the chain saw on a level surface.
► Insert the battery (1) into the battery compartment (2) until
it stops.
The battery is properly inserted when you hear an audible
click and the battery is flush with the top of the housing. In
this position, there is electrical contact between the
battery and the chain saw.
Since a new battery is not fully charged, STIHL recommends
that you fully charge the battery before using it the first time,
@ 11.2.
17.2 Removing the Battery
WARNING
To reduce the risk of severe personal injury from unintended
activation, always remove the battery before assembling,
transporting, adjusting, cleaning, servicing, maintaining or
storing the chain saw, and any other time it is not in use.
WARNING
Use care when ejecting the battery to prevent it from falling
and causing personal injury or property damage.
To remove the battery:
► Release the trigger switch.
► Place the chain saw on a level surface.
► Compress the locking levers (1) to eject the battery (2)
from the battery compartment.
NOTICE
Avoid exposing the battery to excessive heat or prolonged
periods of direct sunlight. Use or storage outside the
recommended ambient temperature range can reduce the
performance and/or service life of the battery.
