Ryobi RY18PSX10A Manuel D'utilisation page 8

The rakers (depth gauges) ahead of each cutter can
minimise the force of a kickback reaction by preventing the
cutters from digging in too deeply. Use only replacement
guide bar and chain combinations that are recommended
by the manufacturer.
As saw chains are sharpened, they lose some of the low-
kickback qualities, and extra caution is required. For safety,
replace saw chains when cutting performance decreases.
Over-temperature protection
The battery pack has over-temperature protection, which
is designed to protect the battery cells from damage in the
event of high temperatures. This feature may cause the
battery to stop powering the product until the battery cells
cool down. If the battery pack is warm to touch, allow it to
cool down before resuming operation. If the product still
does not work, connect the battery pack to the charger,
which can also indicate over-temperature protection. When
the battery cells cool down, the charger begins to charge
the battery.
NOTE: High ambient temperatures above 30° C and high-
power tools, such as pruning saws, can cause the battery
cells to heat up faster. Monitor the battery pack regularly,
and if it is warm to touch, change the battery or allow the
battery to cool down.
NOTE: The battery pack LED indicator stops working if the
battery protection feature has caused the battery pack to
stop powering the product.
