WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and specifications provided with this
power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury
SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE
REFERENCE.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
WORK AREA SAFETY
◾Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
◾Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
◾Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
◾Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor
plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk
of electric shock
◾Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
◾Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.

CORDLESS TOP HANDLE CHAIN SAW — CSX300010
EN ◾Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
◾Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged
or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may
exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire,
explosion or risk of injury.
◾Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire
or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or
temperature above 130°C may cause explosion.
◾Follow all charging instructions and do not charge
the battery pack or tool outside the temperature
range specified in the instructions. Charging
improperly or at temperatures outside the specified
range may damage the battery and increase the risk
of fire.
SERVICE
◾Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
◾Never service damaged battery packs. Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
CHAIN SAW SAFETY WARNINGS
◾Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain
when the chain saw is operating. Before you start
the chain saw, make sure the saw chain is not
contacting anything. A moment of inattention while
operating chain saws may cause entanglement of your
clothing or body with the chain.
◾Always hold the chain saw with your right hand
on the rear handle and your left hand on the front
handle. Holding the chain saw with a reversed hand
configuration increases the risk of personal injury and
should never be done.
◾Hold the chain saw by insulated gripping surfaces
only, because the saw chain may contact hidden
wiring. Saw chains contacting a “live” wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could
give the operator an electric shock.
◾Wear eye protection. Further protective equipment
for hearing, head, hands, legs and feet is
recommended. Adequate protective clothing will
reduce personal injury by flying debris or accidental
contact with the saw chain.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
◾Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool
for your application. The correct power tool will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
◾Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn
it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
◾Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or the battery pack from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
◾Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool
or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
◾Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may affect
the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
◾Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
◾Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
◾Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces may lead to unsafe handling and/or
loss of control of the tool.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
◾Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used
with another battery pack.
◾Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
◾When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can
make a connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause
burns or a fire.

CORDLESS TOP HANDLE CHAIN SAW — CSX3000 11
EN
◾Do not operate a chain saw in a tree, on a ladder,
from a rooftop, or any unstable support. Operation
of a chain saw in this manner could result in serious
personal injury.
◾Always keep proper footing and operate the chain
saw only when standing on fixed, secure and level
surface. Slippery or unstable surfaces such as ladders
may cause a loss of balance or control of the chain saw.
◾When cutting a limb that is under tension be alert
for spring back. When the tension in the wood fibers
is released the spring loaded limb may strike the
operator and/or throw the chain saw out of control.
◾Use extreme caution when cutting brush and saplings.
The slender material may catch the saw chain and be
whipped toward you or pull you off balance.
◾Carry the chain saw by the front handle with the
chain saw switched off and away from your body.
When transporting or storing the chain saw always
fit the guide bar cover. Proper handling of the chain
saw will reduce the likelihood of accidental contact
with the moving saw chain.
◾Follow instructions for lubricating, chain
tensioning and changing accessories. Improperly
tensioned or lubricated chain may either break or
increase the chance for kickback.
◾Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and
grease. Greasy, oily handles are slippery causing loss
of control.
◾Cut wood only. Do not use chain saw for purposes
not intended. For example: do not use chain saw
for cutting plastic, masonry or non-wood building
materials. Use of the chain saw for operations different
than intended could result in a hazardous situation.
◾Do not attempt to fell a tree until you have an
understanding of the risks and how to avoid
them. Serious injury could occur to the operator or
bystanders while felling a tree.
CAUSES AND OPERATOR PREVENTION OF
KICKBACK
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide bar
touches an object, or when the wood closes in and pinches
the saw chain in the cut (Fig. A).
Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden reverse
reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back towards the
operator (Fig. B).
Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may
push the guide bar rapidly back towards the operator (Fig. C).
Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control of the
saw which could result in serious personal injury. Do not rely
exclusively upon the safety devices built into your saw.
As a chain saw user, you should take several steps to keep
your cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect
operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by
taking proper precautions as given below:
◾Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers
encircling the chain saw handles, with both hands
on the saw and position your body and arm to allow
you to resist kickback forces (Fig. D). Kickback forces
can be controlled by the operator, if proper precautions
are taken. Do not let go of the chain saw.
◾Do not overreach and do not cut above shoulder
height. This helps prevent unintended tip contact and
enables better control of the chain saw in unexpected
situations.
◾Only use replacement bars and chains specified
by the manufacturer. Incorrect replacement bars and
chains may cause chain breakage and/or kickback.
◾Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and
maintenance instructions for the saw chain.
Decreasing the depth gauge height can lead to
increased kickback.
◾Make sure that the area in which you are cutting
is free from obstructions. Do not let the nose of the
guide bar contact a log, branch, fence, or any other
obstruction that could be hit while you are operating
the saw.
◾Always cut with the unit running at full speed. Fully
squeeze the switch trigger and maintain cutting speed.
◾With a basic understanding of kickback, you can
reduce or eliminate the element of surprise. Sudden
surprise contributes to accidents.
◾Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
◾Push and Pull – The reaction force is always opposite
to the direction the chain is moving where wood
contact is made. Thus, the operator must be ready to
control the PULL when cutting on the bottom edge of
the bar, and the PUSH when cutting along the top edge
(Fig. E).
KICKBACK SAFETY DEVICES ON THIS CHAIN SAW
CHAIN BRAKE
The chain saw comes equipped with a chain brake, which
stops both the motor and the motion of the chain when
kickback occurs. The chain brake can be activated by the
for-ward motion of the chain kickback brake handle as
the saw rotates backward during kickback; it can also
be activated by the inertial forces generated during rapid
pushback.

CORDLESS TOP HANDLE CHAIN SAW — CSX300012
EN WARNING: Never modify or attempt to disable the
chain brake.
Make sure that the chain brake is working properly before
using the chain saw. The chain kickback brake handle
should move back and forth easily.
◾To test the operation of the chain brake, perform the
following steps (Fig. F):
◾Place the chain saw on a flat bare surface and make
sure no objects or obstructions that could come in
contact with the bar and chain are in the immediate
vicinity.
◾Disengage the chain brake by pulling the chain
kickback brake handle towards the front handle.
◾Start the chain saw.
◾Push the chain kickback brake handle towards the front
of the saw. A properly functioning hand brake will stop the
movement of the chain immediately. If the chain brake is
not working properly, do not use the chain saw until it has
been repaired by a qualified service technician.
WARNING: Confirm that the chain brake works
properly before each use.
WARNING: If the chain brake is clogged with wood
chips, the function of the chain brake may deteriorate.
Always keep the device clean.
LOW KICKBACK SAW CHAIN
The rakers (depth gauges) ahead of each cutter can
minimize the force of a kickback reaction by preventing
the cutters from digging in too deeply at the kickback
zone. Only use a replacement chain that is equivalent to
the original chain or has been certified one.
CAUTION: As saw chains are sharpened during their
useful life, they lose some of the low kickback qualities
and extra caution should be used.
ADDITIONAL WARNINGS
◾A chain saw is intended for two-handed use.
Serious injury to the operator, helpers, and/or
bystanders can result from one-handed operation.
◾Avoid unintentional contact with the stationary
saw chain or guide bar rails. These can be very
sharp. Always wear gloves and long pants or chaps
when handling the chain saw, saw chain, or guide bar.
◾Never operate a chain saw that is damaged or
improperly adjusted or that is not completely and
securely assembled. Be sure that the saw chain
stops moving when the trigger switch is released.
◾Inspect the work piece for nails, wire, or other
foreign objects prior to cutting.
◾When bucking, secure the work piece prior to
cutting. When felling or pruning, identify and
secure hazardous branches.
◾Aggressive or abusive cutting or misuse of the chain
saw can cause premature bar, chain, and/or sprocket
wear, as well as broken chain or bar, leading to
kickback, chain throw or the ejection of material.
◾Never use the guide bar as a lever. A bent guide bar
can cause premature bar, chain, and/or sprocket wear,
as well as a broken chain or bar, leading to kickback,
chain throw or the ejection of material.
◾Cut only one work piece at a time.
◾Use only with the battery packs and chargers listed
below:
BATTERY CHARGER
BA1400, BA2800, BA4200,
BA1400T, BA2800T, BA4200T, BA5600T
CH5500E,
CH2100E
◾Do not charge the battery pack in rain or in wet
locations.
◾Plan the work, ensuring an obstacle-free work area
and, in the case of felling, at least one escape path
from the falling tree.
◾When felling, keep bystanders at least two tree
lengths away.
◾If situations occur which are not covered in this
manual, use care and good judgment. Contact EGO
Customer Service for assistance.
GUIDE BAR
This saw comes equipped with a guide bar that has a
small radius nose. Small radius noses generally have less
potential for kickback. When replacing the guide bar, be

MAINTENANCE
CLEANING
◾After each use, clean debris from the chain and guide
bar with a soft brush. Wipe the chain saw surface with
a clean cloth moistened with a mild soap solution.
◾For deep clearing, remove the side cover assembly, take
down the guide bar and saw chain and then use a soft
brush to thoroughly remove debris from the guide bar, saw
chain, and the drive sprocket on the chain saw power head.
◾Always clean out wood chips, saw dust, and dirt from
the guide bar groove when replacing the saw chain.
REMOVE DUST
1. Disconnect the power plug, allow the chain saw to
cool and tighten the oil-tank cap.
2. Engage the saw brake
3. Use combi-wrench (provided) to loosen the screw of
dust removal cover to open it (Fig. U1).
4. Clean up the sawdust and chips accumulated in the
cooling fin by using compressed dry air, blow it from
the opposite side air inlet (Fig. U2).
GUIDE BAR MAINTENANCE
When the guide bar shows signs of wear, disassemble
it from the chain saw power head and reverse it for
reassembly (Fig.V1), in which case it will distribute the
wear for maximum bar life.
The bar should be cleaned (including bar rails and
lubricating hole every day of use and checked for wear
and damage (Fig. V2). Feathering or burring of the bar
rails is a normal process of bar wear. Such faults should
be smoothed with a file as soon as they occur. A bar with
any of the following faults should be replaced.
Wear inside the bar rails which permits the chain to lay
over sideways.
◾Bent guide bar.
◾Cracked or broken rails.
◾Spread rails.
The guide bar has a sprocket at its tip. The sprocket must be
lubricated weekly with a grease syringe to extend the guide
bar life (Fig. V3 & V4). Turn the nose sprocket while pumping
the translucent yellow, translucent red or translucent
grease into the lubricating hole until the entire sprocket has
new grease. Do not push dirt into the hole.
CHAIN MAINTENANCE
Use only low-kickback chains on this saw. This fast
cutting chain will provide kickback reduction when
properly maintained.

EN
A properly sharpened saw chain cuts through wood
effortlessly, even with very little pressure. Never use a
dull or damaged saw chain. A dull saw chain cutter leads
to increased physical strain, increased vibration load,
unsatisfactory cutting results, and increased wear.
For smooth and fast cutting, the chain needs to be
maintained properly. The chain requires sharpening when
the wood chips are small and powdery, the chain must be
forced through the wood during cutting, or the chain cuts
to one side. During maintenance of your chain, consider
the following:
◾Improper filing angle of the side plate can increase the
risk of a severe kickback.
◾Depth gauge clearance. Too low increases the potential
for kickback. Not low enough decreases cutting ability.
◾If cutter teeth have hit hard objects, such as nails and
stones, or have been abraded by mud or sand on the
wood, have the chain sharpened by a qualified service
technician.
NOTICE: it is recommended to have sharpening and
maintenance of the saw chain performed by authorized
service centers.
TRANSPORTING AND STORING
◾Do not store or transport the chain saw when it is
running. Always disconnect the power plug before
storing or transporting.
◾Always place the guide bar sheath on the guide bar
and chain before storing or transporting the chain saw.
Use caution to avoid the sharp teeth of the chain.
◾Clean the chain saw thoroughly before storing. Store
the chain saw indoors, in a dry place that is locked
and/or inaccessible to children.
◾Keep away from corrosive agents such as garden
chemicals and de-icing salts.
Protecting the environment
Do not dispose of electrical equipment,
used battery and charger into household
