OPERATION
ADJUSTING THE TELESCOPING HANDLE
1.
Unlock the telescope release lever so that the pole can
freely extend outwards and inwards.
2.
Extend it to the desired length and lock the telescope
release lever to hold it in place.
TURNING THE POLE SAW ON AND OFF
To turn ON, hold the pole saw firmly with both hands. Press
and hold the safety switch located on the left-hand side of
the rear handle above the main power trigger.
Press down the trigger to turn it ON. The safety switch can
now be released.
To turn OFF, release the ON/OFF trigger switch.
PREPARATION
Before each use, check the following items to ensure safe
working conditions.
POLE SAW:
Before beginning work, inspect the pole saw
for damage to the housing, the extension cable, the saw
chain and the guide bar. Never use an obviously damaged
machine.
OIL TANK:
check the fill level of the oil tank. Also check
whether there is sufficient oil available while working. Never
operate the saw if there is no oil or the oil level has dropped
below the minimum oil level mark in order to prevent
damage to the pole saw. On average, an oil filling is
sufficient for approximately 10 minutes of cutting operation
(depending on the duration of pauses and the density of the
workpiece).
SAW CHAIN:
check the tension of the saw and the
condition of the blades. The sharper the saw chain is,
the easier and more manageable operations will be. The
same applies to chain tension. Check the tension every 10
minutes of operation to maximize safety. New saw chains in
particular are subject to changes due to the heat created by
operation.
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING:
make absolutely sure to wear
the appropriate close-fitting protective clothing such as
chainsaw-protective pants, gloves and safety shoes. Wear
a safety helmet with integrated hearing protection and a
face guard to provide protection against falling and recoiling
branches.
HEAD ADJUSTMENT
The angle of the saw’s head can be adjusted anywhere
from 0 to 30 degrees by pushing down on the
Angle Adjustment Button
. If you would like to change the
angle of the saw’s head, first remove the battery and then
adjust to the desired angle.
SAFETY WARNINGS
• In order to ensure safe work, do not operate the saw at
an angle of over 60°.
• Never stand below a branch that is being sawed.
• Exercise caution when sawing both branches under
tension or branches that are splintering.
• Make sure to safe guard against the risk of injury from
falling branches and flying wood projectiles.
• If the machine is in operation, keep persons and animals
away from the danger area.
• The machine is not protected against electric shock
when coming into contact with high-voltage lines.
Maintain a minimum clearance of 30 feet from current-
carrying power lines to avoid life-threatening
electric shock.
• Do not expose the unit to rain.
• When working on an incline, always stand above or to
the side of the branch being sawed. Hold the machine
as close as possible to your body. By doing so, you
maximize your balance.
