FAQs

What type of battery does the UniversalChainpole 18 use?

It uses an 18V battery. The recommended battery capacity is 2.5Ah.

How do I tension the chain?

Refer to the user manual for detailed instructions. Usually, it involves loosening the bar nuts, adjusting the tension screw, and retightening the bar nuts.

How often should I sharpen the chain?

Sharpen the chain as needed, typically after several hours of use or when cutting performance decreases.

What kind of oil should I use?

Use a bar and chain oil specifically designed for chainsaws.

How do I store the UniversalChainpole 18?

Clean the chainsaw, drain the oil, and store it in a dry place, preferably in its original packaging or a protective case.

What is the warranty period?

The product comes with a 2-year warranty, which can be extended by one year through MyBosch.

Can I use the UniversalChainpole 18 to cut large trees?

It is designed for pruning branches. While it can handle some thicker branches, it is not intended for felling large trees. The 20cm bar length limits the size of the branches you can cut effectively.

Troubleshooting

The chain is not moving.

Check the battery charge and ensure it is properly inserted. Verify the chain brake is disengaged. Check the chain tension and lubrication.

The chain is loose.

Tighten the chain using the tensioning mechanism, following the instructions in the manual.

The chainsaw is not cutting efficiently.

Sharpen or replace the chain. Ensure the chain is properly lubricated.

Oil is leaking.

Check the oil reservoir cap and ensure it is sealed correctly. Inspect the chain for any oil leaks.
