In order to lubricate the saw chain sufficiently, there must be enough saw chain oil in the tank at
all times. The oil level can be checked in the viewing glass. The oil level may not be below or
above MIN or MAX.
Saw chain lubrication
Clean to avoid premature wear of the tool, the chain and the guide bar must be lubricated
homogeneously throughout the operation.
The lubrication is automatic.
Never use the chainsaw if the chain is not lubricated. If the chain is dry, the entire cutting device
may become damaged.
It is therefore essential to check both the lubrication of the chain and the oil level before each use.
Never use the chainsaw when the oil level is below MIN.

Use of the hedge trimmer
The tool can be used to cut small brushes or trim small bushes.
The trimming cut with and angle of 5◦, between the hedge and the blade, is kept during the
operation (ill 2 below).
Both sides of the cutting blades allow to trim both ways; from right to left to left to right (ill. 3).
To achieve a regular trim, we recommend you to limit the side of the hedge with a wire or line.
Only the branches higher the top of the wire or line should be cut (ill. 4).
The sides of a hedge should be trimmed from the bottom to top (ill. 5).
Important
Large branches should be cut with shears
In case the blades get blocked, stop and unplug the hedge trimmer. Then, remove the
blockage.
d.
Use of the brushcutter/grass trimmer
Cutting with a metal blade
The 3 tooth metal blade provided with the machine is intended for cutting brushes and weeds. Do
not use saw blade with this machine.
Warning:
o
Do not use brushcutter for cutting trees.
o
Do not cut with dull, cracked or damaged metal blade.
o
Before cutting, inspect the working area for obstruction (such as boulders, metal stakes or
strands of wire from broken fences) and remove then. If an obstruction cannot be removed,
mark its location so that you can avoid it with the blade. Rocks and metal will dull or damage
the blade. Wires can catch on the blade head and flap around or be thrown into the air.
o
Use the shoulder harness at all times! Harness the unit on the right side of your body. Adjust
the harness that the unit hangs a few inches above ground level.
