• Exert regular pressure on the device and do not apply excessive force.
• If possible, apply the device to the branch you wish to saw with the claw stop.
ATTENTION! If the cutting device touches a foreign body, or the operation noise intensifies, or the
device vibrates unusually heavily, switch off the motor and allow the device to come to a halt.
Remove the battery and implement the following measures:
• check for damage
• check for loose parts and fasten all parts
• replace damaged parts with equivalent parts or have them repaired.
AFTER USE
Risk of injury!
Always switch off the device before setting the device down. The saw chain will run on for a short time
after stop the motor, wait until all moving parts have come to a complete standstill, remove battery,place
the protective sheath on the cutting unit,apply chain brake,leave the device to cool down.
NOTE: After use, the battery temperature might be high, and the battery would be over-temperature
protected, allow the battery cool down for half an hour and it would recovery function.
BASIC WORKING TECHNIQUE
Risk of injury! This section examines the basic working technique for using the device. The information
provided here does not replace the many years of training and experience of a specialist. Avoid any
work that you are not adequately qualified for! Careless use of the device can lead to serious injuries
and even death!
SAWING TECHNIQUE: PULL SAWING
With this technique, sawing takes place with the underside of the guide
bar from top to bottom.
The saw chain pulls the device forwards and away from the user. With
this action, the front edge of the device forms a support, which absorbs
the forces that arise on the tree trunk during sawing. With pull sawing,
the user has significantly greater control over the device and is able
to better avoid kickbacks. This sawing technique should therefore be
used if possible.
PUSH SAWING
With this technology, sawing takes place with the top side of the guide
bar from bottom to top. The saw chain pushes the device backwards,
towards the user.

WARNING!
If the guide bar tilts, the device may be jerked towards the user with great force. If the user does not
balance the backward force of the saw chain with their body strength, there is a risk that only the tip
of the guide bar will remain in contact with the wood and kickback will occur.
Risk of death or serious injuries!
Felling a tree
Risk of injury!
Felling and branch removal work may only be performed by trained personnel! There is a risk of life
threatening injuries!
Before starting felling work, make sure that:
• no bystanders or animals are in the felling area (A).
• a clear evacuation route, free of obstacles, is available to all participants. Withdrawal (B) takes
place at an oblique angle to the felling direction.
• the area around the trunk is clear of obstacles (risk of tripping!).
• the nearest workplace is at least 2½ trunk lengths away. Before felling, check the felling direction
of the tree and make sure that no obstacles, persons or animals are within a distance of 2½ tree
lengths.
Tree felling takes place in two steps:
• Saw a felling sink in the trunk of around one third of its diameter, on the side of the felling direction
(1).
