■ Return the chain saw immediately for mainte‐
nance whenever there is a change in its oper‐
ating characteristics.
■ Use of parts that are not authorized or
approved by STIHL may cause serious or fatal
injury or property damage.
► STIHL recommends that only identical
STIHL replacement parts be used for repair
or maintenance.
■ To reduce the risk of short circuit and fire:
► Keep the battery guides free of foreign mat‐
ter. Clean as necessary with a dry cloth or
soft, dry brush.
■ Improper storage can result in unauthorized
use, damage to the chain saw and battery,
and an increased risk of fire, electric shock
and other personal injury or property damage.
► Engage the chain brake by moving the front
hand guard forward to
battery from the chain saw before storing.
► Never store the chain saw with the battery
inserted.
► When storing the battery, maintain a charge
of 40 % to 60 % (2 green LEDs).
► If storing the battery in the charger, discon‐
nect the charger from the outlet.
► Store the chain saw and battery indoors in
a dry, secure place that cannot be
accessed by children or other unauthorized
users.
► Never store the battery in the chain saw or
in a container with small metal objects
capable of conducting electricity (e.g.,
paper clips, nails, coins, keys).
NOTICE
■ Always release tension on the chain after fin‐
ishing work. The chain contracts as it cools
down. If it is not slackened, it can damage the
drive shaft and bearings. Properly re-tension
the chain before using the saw again.

12.1

Setting up the Charger

WARNING
■ Read and follow the safety precautions on the
battery and charger and all warnings and
instructions that accompany those products.
To reduce the risk of short circuit, which could
lead to electric shock, fire and explosion,
make sure the charger and its components are
dry and not damaged. Read and follow the
warnings and instructions in your charger's
manual. For optimum performance, observe
the recommended ambient temperature
ranges, 27.7.
WARNING
■ A typical household electric circuit is between
15 and 20 amps. A single STIHL AL 501
charger draws approximately 4.8 amps. A sin‐
gle AL 301 or AL 301-4 charger draws approx‐
imately 4.4 amps and an AL 101 approxi‐
mately 1.3 amps. To reduce the risk of fire
from overloading an electrical circuit:
► Ensure the electrical system is rated to
withstand the expected electrical draw
before charging your battery.
► Charge multiple batteries one at a time or
on separate circuits, unless you know your
circuit can handle the total expected draw
from multiple chargers.
