Chain Tension
The chain should not be too loose, but you should be able to lift it off the
guide bar by a few millimetres. Use the chain tensioner to tension the
chain.
Always take off the battery pack before undertaking any maintenance
work. The Allen head screw of the chain tensioner is at the front of the
pole saw next to the guide bar.
Turning it clockwise tightens the chain, turning it anticlockwise slackens
the chain. Beware of the sharp edges of the saw chain.
Cutting Tips for Chainsaw
Do not work with an angle higher than 60 degrees. The pole saw will
work under higher degrees, but there is a danger of being injured by
branches falling without warning.
Keep an eye on the ground while working to avoid tripping over fallen
branches.
Never use the pole saw without oil, use bio-degradable chainsaw oil.
To operate the pruner, push forward the safety switch and then pull the
switch. The pruner is equipped with a low-kickback chain however,
some kickback cannot be avoided when cutting with the upper tip of the
blade. Be prepared when using this area of the blade or hitting another
branch with this area. Always hold the unit firmly in both hands.
Thin branches can be cut off with one single cut. To prevent the branch
from slivering and buckling, it should be cut off in several pieces.
