2). Mains leads on pruner are particularly susceptible to
insulation damage. The causes of this include the following:
- Cut the cable by passing over it with the pruner.
- Damage through crushing if the mains lead is routed
under doors or windows.
- Cracks caused by ageing of the insulation sheath.
- Kinks caused by incorrect fastening or routing of the
mains lead.
3). Such damaged mains leads should not be used under
any circumstances as they may cause fatal injuries due to
their damaged insulation sheath.
4). Always check the plug and cable and make sure they are
in good condition before operation.
3. CABLE ROUTING
Always route the electric main cable away from the work
area to prevent it from coming into contact with the blade.
Plan your route before starting work. Start your work at the
nearest point to the electrical outlet, and work away from it.
This will keep the cable away from the pruner and avoid it
being accidentally cut. Keep the cable over your shoulder
for added safety.
For tension relief of the cable, form a loop of the end of the
extension cable and bring this through the opening at the
handle and insert it into the cable hook. (See Fig.9)
The cutting length of the pruner can be adjusted
continuously according to required cutting height.
1). Unscrew the locking sleeve in clockwise-direction and
extend the pole bar forward.
2). After adjusting required length, tighten the locking sleeve.
