Operation
Chain Tension
ƒ The chain should not be too loose, but you should be able to lift it off the
guide bar a few millimetres. Use the chain tensioner to tension the chain.
ƒ Always pull the power plug before undertaking any maintenance work.
ƒ The allen head screw of the chain tensioner is at the front of the pole
saw’s hear next to the guide bar. Turning it clockwise tightens the chain,
turning it counter-clockwise slackens the chain. Beware of the sharp
edges of the saw chain.
Working with the Electric Pole Saw
ƒ The pole can be continuously extended after the red wing nuts have been
loosened. Do not work with an angle higher than 60°. The pole saw will
work under higher degrees, but there is the danger of being injured by
branches falling without warning. Keep an eye at the ground while working
to avoid tripping over fallen branches.
ƒ
Never use the pole saw without oil, use bio-degradable chainsaw oil.
Please keep in mind that the pole saw, like all chainsaws, flings oil from
the chain during operation. Protect yourself from falling oil drops with
suitable protective clothing.
ƒ
To operate the Westfalia electric pole saw push forward the safety switch
(10) and then pull the switch (11).
ƒ The Westfalia electric pole saw is equipped with a low-kickback chain and
it was also done everything from an engineering point of view to keep
kickback low. Nevertheless, some kickback can not be avoided when
cutting with the upper tip of the blade. Be prepared for some kickback
when using this area of the blade or hitting another branch with this area.
Always hold the unit firmly in both hands.
