INTENDED USE

The pruner attachment is approved for use only with the AEG 58V battery-
driven power heads of ALT58B and ALT58BT and the 18V battery-driven 
power heads of ALT18B.
The product is designed for cutting and pruning of small limbs and branches 
(with a diameter that is less than or equal to the bar length) located high in 
the tree. While cutting and pruning, the operator maintains a steady footing 
on the ground.
The product is designed to be extended to a maximum length of 2.5 (including 
the extension shaft). Do not exceed this working length.
The product is not intended to be used while climbing or as a conventional 
chainsaw for close quarter limbing and pruning of material at ground level.
Do not use the product for any other purpose.

 

WARNING! 

When using the product, the safety rules must be followed. 

For your own safety and that of bystanders, please read these instructions 
before operating the product. Please keep the instructions safe for later use.

 

WARNING! 

The attachment is not suitable for use with power heads 

equipped with bike handle.

GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS

FOR ASSEMBLING WITH PETROL-DRIVEN POWER HEAD

 

For safe operation, read and understand all instructions before using 
the product. Follow all safety instructions. Failure to follow all safety 
instructions listed below can result in serious personal injury.

 

Never start or run the engine in a closed or poorly ventilated area. 
Breathing exhaust fumes can kill.

 

Do not touch the area around the silencer or cylinder of the product, as 
these parts get hot from operation.

 

Always turn off the engine and allow it to cool down before making any 
adjustments.

 

Do not smoke when mixing fuel or filling the fuel tank.

 

Mix and store fuel in a container that is approved for fuel.

 

Mix fuel outdoors where there are no sparks or flames. Wipe up any 
fuel spillage. Move 9 m away from the refuelling site before starting the 
engine.

 

Turn off the engine and allow it to cool down before refuelling or storing 
the product.

 

Allow the engine to cool, empty the fuel tank and oil tank (if applicable), 
and secure the product from moving before transporting the product in 
a vehicle.

 

WARNING! 

When the throttle trigger is released and the engine is 

running at idle speed, the blade must not move. If the blade continues to move, 
there is a risk of severe injury to the operator. Do not use the product. Return 
the product to an authorised service centre for professional adjustment.

WARNING!

The declared vibration value has been measured with a standard test method and may be used to compare one tool with another.
The declared vibration value may be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
The vibration emission during actual use of power tool can differ from the declared total value depending on the ways in which the tool is used.
Identify safety measures to protect yourself based on an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use, taking account of all parts of the operating cycle 
such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time.
