Initial Operation

Do not use the equipment wi-
thout the hand guard. Wear
suitable clothing and work
gloves when working with
the equipment.
Ensure that the equipment is
functional before each use.
The On/Off switch and the
safety switch must not be
held closed. They must switch
off the motor when on is
released. Should a switch
be damaged, stop working
with the equipment. Ensure
that the mains voltage va-
lue matches the label on the
equipment.
Note noise protection and local
specifications. The use of the equip-
ment on certain days (e.g. Sundays
and national holidays), at certain
times of day (lunch times, night time
quiet periods) or in special areas
(e.g. health resorts, clinics etc.) is
restricted or forbidden.

Chain lubrication

The blade bar and saw chain must
never be operated without oil. If the
pole-mounted pruner is used with
too little oil, the cutting performance
and lifespan of the saw chain will
decrease as the saw chain will be-
come blunt more quickly. You can
identify when there is too little oil
if smoke develops or the blade bar
changes colour.
The oil flows to the blade bar as soon as
the motor starts working.

Filling with chain oil:
• Check the oil level indicator on the oil
tank ( 39) regularly and top-up the
oil if the minimum mark „MIN" (
is reached on the oil level indicator. The
oil tank holds about 120 ml of oil.
• Use bio-oil containing additives to redu-
ce friction and wear. You can order this
from our service centre.
Alternatively, use chain lubricating oil
with a low proportion of adhesion addi-
tives.
• Empty the oil tank if it will not be used for
a prolonged period of time (6-8 weeks).
1. Unscrew the oil tank cap (41) and pour
the chain oil into the tank.
2. Wipe away any spilt oil and close the
oil tank cap (41).
3. You can regulate the oil flow with the
adjusting screw (42).
Always turn off the device
and let the motor cool down
before filling with chain oil.
Overflowing oil can cause a
fire.
Swivelling Out the
Blade Beam
The blade bar must be checked
regularly for wear and reground. A
blunt blade bar causes the device
to overload. Any damage that re-
sults is not covered by the warranty.
1. Hold the safety blade beam on the
handle to adjust the blade beam (43).
2. Unlock the safety lever (44) and keep
it pressed.
3. By simultaneously exerting pressure on
the lock lever (45), you will loosen the
fixation of the cutter bar.
