The chain should be tight enough that you can pull it slightly away from the bar, but not so loose that it sags. It should snap back into place when released. Always check the tension before each use.

How do I properly maintain the bar and chain of the CMCCS620B?

Regularly clean the bar groove and oil holes. Sharpen the chain when necessary and ensure it's properly lubricated during operation. Replace the chain when it shows signs of excessive wear.

What should I do if my chainsaw does not start?

Check the battery to ensure it's charged and properly inserted. Verify that the chain brake is disengaged and the safety switch is activated. If the problem persists, consult the user manual for additional troubleshooting steps.

How often should I clean the air filter on my CMCCS620B chainsaw?

It's recommended to check and clean the air filter after every 5 hours of use. Replace the filter if it appears damaged or excessively dirty.

Can I use the CMCCS620B in wet conditions?

The chainsaw is not designed for use in wet conditions. Operating it in rain or while wet can pose safety risks and may damage the tool. Always operate in dry conditions.

Clean the chainsaw thoroughly, remove the battery, and store it in a dry, well-ventilated area. Cover the bar and chain with a protective sheath to prevent accidental contact and damage.

What type of oil should I use for the chain lubrication?
