_IL WARNING: This product con-
tains chemicals known to the State
of California to cause cancer or
birth defects, or other reproduc-
tive harm.
4BkWARNING: Some dust created
by power sanding, sawing, grind-
ing, drilling, and other construc-
tion activities contains chemicals
known (to the state of California)
to cause cancer, birth defects, or
other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
lead from lead-based
paints
crystalline silica from
bricks and cement and
other masonry products
arsenic and chromium
from chemically-treated
lumber
Your risk from these exposures
varies, depending on how often
you do this type ofwork. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals:
work in a well ventilated area, and
work with approved safety equip=
merit, such as those dust masks
that are specially designed to finer
out microscopic particles.
KICKBACK
WARNING: Kickback may occur
when the nose or tip of the guide
bar touches an object, or when the
wood closes inand pinches the saw
chain inthe cut.Tip contact insome
cases may cause a lightning fast re-
versereaction, kickingthe guide bar
up and back towards the operator.
Pinching the saw chain along the
top of the guide bar may push the
guide bar rapidly back towards the
operator. Either of these reactions
may causeyou to losecontrol ofthe
saw which could result in serious
injury to user.
Kickback Safety Devices On This
Saw
This saw has a low-kickback chain and re-
duced kickback guide bar. Both items reduce
the chance of kickback. Low-kickback saw
chain is a chain which met the kickback
performance requirements of ANSI B 175.1.
Kickback can still occur with this saw.
Followassembly instructions onpage 11.Do
notremove front hand guard. Do notreplace
front hand guard with substitute.
The following steps will reduce the risk of
kickback.
, Use both hands to grip saw while saw
is running:
For chain saw, use both hands to grip
saw while saw is running. Use firm
grip. Thumbs and fingers must wrap
around saw handles.
For polesaw, use one hand to grip
the handle and the other hand to grip
the pole. Use firm grip. Thumbs and
fingers must wrap around pole and
handle.
, Keep all safety items in place on saw.
Make sure they work properly.
, Chain saw - do not overreach or cut
above shoulder height.
, Polesaw - do not overreach or extend
arms above shoulder height.
, Keep solid footing and balance at all
times.
, Stand slightly to left side of saw. This
keeps your body from being in direct
line with chain.
, Do not let guide bar nose touch any-
thing when chain is moving (see Figure
1).
, Never try cutting through two logs
at same time. Only cut one log at a
time.
, Do not bury guide bar nose or try
plunge cut (boring into wood using
guide bar nose).
, Watch for shifting of wood or other
forces that may pinch chain.
, Use extreme caution when reentering a
previous cut.
, Use low-kickback chain and guide bar
supplied with this chain saw. Only re-
place these parts with chains and guide
bars listed in this manual.
, Never use dull or loose chain. Keep
chain sharp with proper tension.
Saw Maintenance and Kickback
Safety
Follow maintenance instructions in this
manual. Proper cleaning ofsaw and chain and
guide bar maintenance can reduce chances
of kickback. Inspect and maintain saw af-
ter each use. This will increase the service
life of your saw. Note: Even with proper
sharpening, risk of kickback can increase
with each sharpening.

SAFETY WARNINGS
1. This manual contains important safe-
ty and operating instructions.
2. Before using battery charger, read all
instructions and cautionary markings
on battery charger, battery pack, and
product using battery pack.
_, CAUTION: To reduce the risk
of injury, charge only Remington
brand batteries. Other types of bat=
teries may burst causing personal
injury and damage.
3. Do not expose charger to rain or
snow,
4. Use of an attachment not recommended
or sold by Remington brand may result
in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury
to persons.
5. To reduce risk of damage to electric-
plug and cord, pull by plug rather than
cord when disconnecting charger.
6. An extension cord should not be used
unless absolutely necessary. Use of
improper extension cord could re-
sult in a risk of fire, electric shock or
electrocution.
a. Two-wire cords can be used with
2-wire or 3-wire extension cords.
Only round jacketed extension cords
should be used, and we recommend
that they be listed by Underwriters
Laboratories (U.L.). If the extension
is to be used outside, the cord must
be suitable for outdoor use. Any cord
marked fk_routdoor use can also be
used fk_r indoor work. The letters
"W" or "WA" on the cord jacket
indicate that the cord is suitable fk_r
outdoor use.
b. An extension cord must have ad-
equate wire size (AWG or American
Wire Gauge) fk_rsafety, and to pre-
vent loss of power and overheating.
The smaller the gauge number of
the wire, the greater the capacity of
the cable; that is, 16 gauge has more
capacity than 18 gauge. When using
more than one extension to make up
the total length, be sure each exten-
sion contains at least the minimum
wire size.

DO NOT incinerate the battery pack
even if they are severely damaged or
completely worn out. The batteries can
explode in a fire.
A small leakage of liquid from the
battery pack cells may occur under
extreme usage, charging, or tempera-
ture conditions. This does not indicate
a failure. However, if the outer seal is
broken and this leakage gets on your
skin:
Wash quickly with soap and water.
Neutralize with a mild acid such as
lemon juice or vinegar.
If the battery liquid gets in your eyes,
flush them with clean water for a
minimum of 10 minutes and seek
immediate medical attention.
MEDICAL NOTE: The liquid is a
25-35% solution of potassium
hydroxide.
RECHARGEABLE BATTERY
CHARGING BATTERY
The battery pack is not fully
charged at the factory. Before
attempting to charge the battery
pack, thoroughly read all Safety
instructions.
The charger is designed to use standard
household 120 volt 60 Hz power.
1. Plug cord from charger into charger
base. (See Figure 2)
Figure 2 - Plug Charger into Base
2.
3.
Plug the charger into any standard
120 Volt 60 Hz electrical outlet.
IMPORTANT: Do not charge by means
of an engine generator or DC power
source. Use only 120V AC.
Slide the charger onto the battery pack
as shown in Figure 3. The LED will
light up, Let the battery pack charge
until red LED turns off. At'ter the ini-
tial charge, under normal usage, your
battery pack should be fully charged in
3 to 9 hours.
4. Unplug charger. Remove the charger
by sliding off (See Figure 4).
5. Place the battery pack in the tool and be
certain that it is inserted tully into the
tool cavity until it "clicks" into place.
Figure 4 - Remove Charger
iMPORTANT CHARGING
NOTES
1. After normal usage, your battery
pack should be tully charged in 3 to 9
hours. If the battery pack is run-down
completely, it may take up to 9 hours
to become tully charged. Your battery
pack was sent from the factory in an
uncharged condition. For best perfor-
mance charge battery until red LED
turns off. Allow the battery to cool
down 30 minutes before charging after
using the saw. NOTE: A hot battery
placed in the charger will not charge.
2. DO NOT charge the battery pack in an
air temperature below 40°F (4,5 °C) or
above 105°F (40,5 °C). This is impor-
tant and will prevent serious damage to
the battery pack. Longest life and best
performance can be obtained if battery
pack is charged when air temperature
is about 75°F (24°C).
3. While charging, the charger may hum
and become warm to touch. This is a
normal condition and does not indicate
a problem.
4. If the battery pack does not charge
properly
Check current at receptacle by plugging
in a lamp or other appliance.
Check to see if receptacle is connected
to a light switch which turns power off
when you turn out the lights.
Move charger and battery pack to a
surrounding air temperature of 40°F
(4,5°C) to 105°F (40,5 °C)
° If the receptacle and temperature are
OK, and you do not get proper charg-
ing, call the Customer Selwice
Department.
5. The battery pack should be recharged
when it fails to produce sufficient
power on jobs which were easily done
previously. DO NOT CONTINUE us-
ing product with its battery pack in a
depleted condition.
6. To prolong battery life, avoid leaving
the battery pack on charger for ex-
tended periods of time (over 30 days
without use). Although overcharging is
not a safety concern, it can significantly
reduce overall battery life.
7. The battery pack will reach optimum
performance after being cycled 5 times
during normal usage. There is no need
to run the batteries down completely
before recharging. Normal usage is
the best method of discharging and
recharging the batteries.

SAW CHAIN TENSION
_IL WARNING: Remove battery from
chain saw beforeadjusting sawchain
tension. Severe injury or death
could occur from body contact with
moving chain.
_k WARNING: Cutting edges on
chain are sharp. Use protective
gloves when handling chain.
WARNING: Maintain proper
chain tension always.AIoosechain
will increase the risk of kickback. A
loose chain may jump out of guide
bar groove. This may injure op-
erator and damage chain. A loose
chain will cause chain, guide bar,
and sprocket to wear rapidly.
Note: The saw chain tension is properly set at
the factory. A new chain will stretch. Check
new chain tension frequently (after discon-
necting battery) during the first 2 hours of
operation. Allow chain to cool down. Follow
steps below to check saw chain tension.
1. Remove battery from chain saw.
2. Place chain saw on a firm surface to
check chain tension.

OILING CHAIN
IMPORTANT" Applying oil to the chain and
guide bar reduces friction and excessive
wear. Improper oiling will cause excessive
wear and reduce the life of the chain and
guide bar.
1. Fill included squeeze bottle with
SAE #30 or #40 motor oil or bar
chain oil.
2. Apply several drops of oil between
chain and guide bar (see Figure 12.
Note: Oil should be applied before each
use and every 5 minutes during continu-
ous use.

CUTTING WITH THE CHAIN SAW
I. Attach battery to saw.
2. Make sure section of log to be cut is
not laying on ground. This will keep
chain from touching ground as it cuts
through log. Touching ground with
moving chain will dull chain.
3. Use both hands to grip saw. Always use
left hand to grip front handle and right
hand to grip rear handle. Use firm grip.
Thumbs and fingers must wrap around
saw handles (see Figure 13).
4. Make sure your footing is firm. Keep
feet apart. Divide your weight evenly
on both feet.
Trigger /
Figure 13 - Trigger Lockout and Trig-
ger Location
5. When ready to make a cut, press in
trigger lockout with right thmnb and
squeeze trigger (see Figure 13). This
will turn saw on. Releasing trigger
will turn saw off. Always turn saw on
before contacting saw chain with log.
6. When starting a cut, place moving
chain against wood. Hold saw firmly
in place to avoid possible bouncing or
skating (sideways movement) of saw.
7. Guide saw using light pressure. Do not
force saw. The motor will overload and
can burn out. It will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was
intended.
8. Remove saw from a cut with saw run-
ning. Stop saw by releasing trigger.
Make sure chain has stopped before
setting saw down.
9. Practice until you can maintain a
steady, even cutting rate.
FELLING A TREE (Cutting
Down a Tree)
_1=WARNING:
Avoid kickback. Kickback
can result in severe injury or
death. See Kickback, page 5,
to avoid risk of kickback.
Do not fell a tree without
ample skill or expert help.
Keep children, animals, and
bystanders away from area
when felling a tree.
If two or more persons
perform bucking and felling
operations at the same time,
provide ample distance
between operations. Provide
distance of at least twice the
height of tree being felled.
_IL WARNING: When felling atree,
be aware ofyour surroundings. Do
not endanger any person, strike
utility lines, or cause property
damage. Iftree strikes utility lines,
contact utility company at once.
Felling is the process of cutting down a tree.
Make sure your ti)oting is firm. Keep feet
apart. Divide your weight evenly on both feet.
Follow directions below to tell a tree.
Before Felling a Tree
1. Beti)re telling, inspect tree. Make sure
there are no dead limbs or branches that
may fall on you. Study natural lean of
tree, location of larger branches, and
wind direction. This will help you
judge which way tree will fall.
2. Clear work area around tree.
3. Plan and clear a retreat path before
telling. Make retreat path opposite to
planned direction of fall of tree and at
45 ° angle (see Figure 14).
4. Remove dirt, stones, loose bark, nails,
staples, and wire from tree where you
will make telling cuts.
5. Stay on uphill side when telling tree.
Tree could roll or slide downhill after
falling.

Felling Procedure
A) Felling Notch
A properly placed felling notch will deter-
mine direction tree will fall. Place felling
notch on side of tree in direction you want
tree to fall (see Figure 15).
Follow directions below to create a felling
notch.
1. Make lower notch cut as close to
ground as possible. Hold saw so guide
bar is horizontal. Cut 1/3 the diameter
of tree trunk (see Figure 15). Note:
Always make this horizontal lower
notch cut first. If you make this cut
second, tree can pinch chain or guide
bar.
2. Start upper notch cut the same distance
above first cut as first cut is deep.
Example: If lower notch cut is eight
inches deep, start upper notch cut eight
inches above it. Cut downward at 45°
angle. The upper notch cut should meet
end of lower notch cut (see Figure
15).
3. Remove tree trunk wedge created by
notching cuts,

Figure 15 - Felling A Tree
B) Felling Cut
1. Make felling cut two inches higher than
lower notch cut and on opposite side of
tree (see Figure 15). Keep telling cut
parallel to lower notch cut.
2. Cut towards notch.
3. As felling cut nears hinge, tree should be-
gin to fall. Note: If needed, drive wedges
into felling cut to control direction of fall.
If tree settles back and pinches chain,
drive wedges into felling cut to remove
saw. Only use wedges made of wood,
plastic, or aluminum. Never use wedge
made of steel. This could cause kickback
and damage to chain.
4. When tree begins to fall, quickly
remove saw from telling cut
release trigger to turn saw off
put saw down
exit area using retreat path
A
WARNING: Do not cut all the
way through tree. Leave about
two inches of tree diameter uncut
directly behind felling notch (see
Figure 15). This uncut portion acts
as a hinge. The hinge helps keep
tree from twisting and falling in
wrong direction.
_, WARNING: Be alert for failing
overhead limbs. Watch your footing
while exiting area.
LIMBING ATREE
x_
WARNING: Avoid kickback.
Kickback can result in severe injury
or death. See Kickbackto avoid risk
of kickback.
_IL WARNING: When cutting limb
that is under tension, use extreme
caution. Be alert for wood spring-
ing back. When wood tension is
released, limb could spring back
and strike operator causing severe
injury or death.
Limbing is removing branches from a fallen
tree. Make sure your fk)oting is firm. Keep
feet apart. Divide your weight evenly on both
feet. Do not remove larger limbs under tree
that support log off ground. Remove each
limb with one cut (see Figure 16). Clear cut
limbs from work area often. This will help
maintain a sate work area.
Make sure you start your cut where limb
will not pinch saw during cutting. To avoid
pinching, start cut on freely hanging limbs
from above limb. Start cut on limbs under
tension from under limb. If pinch occurs, turn
saw off, lift limb, and remove saw.

Normal Guide
Bar
Uneven bar wear causes most guide bar prob-
lems. Incorrect sharpening of chain cutter
and depth gauge settings often cause this.
When bar wears unevenly, it widens guide
bar groove (see Figure 30). This causes chain
clatter and rivet popping. Saw will not cut
straight. Replace guide bar if this occurs.
Inspect guide bar before sharpening chain.
A worn or damaged guide bar is unsafe. A
worn or damaged guide bar will damage
chain. It will also make cutting harder.

_I, WARNING: Remove battery
from chain saw before servicing.
Severe injury or death could oc-
cur from body contact with mov=
ing chain.
WARNING: Cutting edges on
chain are sharp. Use protective
gloves when handling chain.
Keep chain sharp. Your saw will cut faster
and more safely. A dull chain will cause
undue sprocket, guide bar, chain, and motor
wear. If yon must force chain into wood and
cutting creates only sawdust with few large
chips, chain is dull.
