material until you are ready to use your new cordless 

chain saw. The packaging is made of recyclable materials.

suffocation risk!

Battery Pack Operation

The equipment is powered by 2 lithium-ion batteries. The 

battery packs are completely sealed and maintenance free.

m

WARNING! 

The chain saw can only be powered by 

both of the batteries together. Use one battery cannot 

provide sufficient power to the tool. Make sure to use two 

batteries of the same voltage and the same capacity. Using 

the tool with batteries of different capacity will cause damage 

to the batteries.  

m

WARNING! 

Before first use, the batteries require at 

least 1 hr 20 mins charge time for each to be fully charged. 

When the batteries are at low capacity, recharge for 1 hr 20  

mins again for each before resuming operation. 

Battery Charge Level Indicator

The battery packs are equipped with a push button for 

checking the charge level. Simply press the push button  

to read off the battery charge level from the LEDs of the battery 

indicator:

•  All 3 level monitoring LEDs are lit: Battery charge level 

is high.

•  2 level monitoring LEDs are lit: Battery charge level is 

decreasing. Stop work as soon as possible.

•  1 level monitoring LED is lit: Battery is flat. Stop work 

IMMEDIATELY and charge the battery. Otherwise the 

battery’s service life will be greatly shortened.

NOTE: If the charge level button does not appear to be working, 

connect the battery to the charger and charge as needed.
NOTE: Immediately after using the battery packs, the charge 

level buttons may display a lower charge than they will if 

checked a few minutes later. The battery cells “recover” some 

of their charge after resting.

Charger Operation

m

WARNING! 

Charge only iON+ 24V lithium-ion 

battery packs with their compatible iON+ 24V lithium-ion 

charger. Other types of batteries may cause personal injury 

and damage. 

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not allow water to flow 

into the charger's AC/DC plug.

When to Charge the iON+ 24VBAT-LTE 

Lithium-Ion Batteries

NOTE: 

The iON+ 24VBAT-LTE lithium-ion battery packs do 

not develop a "memory" when charged after only a partial 

discharge. Therefore, it is not necessary to run down the 

battery pack before connecting it with the charger. 

•  Use the battery charge indicator lights to determine when to 

charge your iON+ 24VBAT-LTE lithium-ion battery packs. 

•  You can "top-off" your battery packs' charge before starting 

a big job or after a long day of use.
