PRUNER
WARNING
The Pruner is supplied with a low KICKBACK chain, however sometimes kick back can occur, so
always hold the unit firmly in two hands. The Kickback danger zone on your Pruner is the upper
part of the nose of the guide bar. Never saw using this part of the guide bar, which poses a
significant risk for kickback.
Position the hook located on the bottom of the head against the branch, to reduce the risk of
the pruner jerking forward.
Ensure the chain is running in the correct direction.
Thin branches can be removed with a single cut, but if the branch is long, it is preferable to cut it
in several pieces, moving towards the main trunk of the tree.
Always check for any damage before each use and replace a damaged chain immediately, with
an approved replacement part.
Before every use, check the level of the chain oil in the reservoir.
During use, check the tension of the chain. (See Maintenance Section For Instruction)
Always fit the supplied blade guard when the Pruner Attachment is not in use.
For larger branches, the 3-point method should be used to prevent breakage.
Do not work at an angle, higher than 60 degree’s, there is a danger of being injured by branches
falling without warning. Also be careful not to trip over grounded branches.
