Turn the tensioning screw counterclockwise as far as it will
go.
The saw chain is now slack.

7.5 Tensioning the Saw Chain
The saw chain expands or contracts during cutting work.
The saw chain tension changes as a result. Check the saw
chain tension regularly during operation and readjust if
necessary.
Switch off the pole pruner and remove the battery.
Loosen the nut (1).
Hold the guide bar nose up and turn the tensioning screw
(2) clockwise until the following points apply:
The chain sag ‘a’ in the center of the guide bar is 1 - 2
mm.
The saw chain can still be pulled easily along the guide
bar with two fingers.
Hold the guide bar nose up and tighten down the nut (1)
firmly.
If the chain sag ‘a’ in the center of the guide bar is not 1 -
2 mm: Readjust the saw chain tension.
7.6 Filling Up with Saw Chain Oil
The saw chain oil lubricates and cools the rotating chain.
Switch off the pole pruner and remove the battery.
Place the pole pruner on a level surface so that the oil tank
cap faces up.
Use a damp cloth to clean the oil tank cap and the area
around it.
Swing the grip on the oil tank cap to the vertical position.
Turn the oil tank cap counterclockwise as far as it will go.
Remove the oil tank cap.
Fill up with saw chain oil, taking care not to spill any oil and
not to overfill the tank.
If the grip on the oil tank cap has dropped into the closed
position: Raise the grip until it is vertical.
Place the oil tank cap in the filler opening so that mark (1)
lines up with mark (2).
