Packing and transport

The unit is packaged by the Manufacturer and sent to the dealer in a carton box.
WARNING!
The handling of loads must be carried out in compliance with the current workplace safety rules.

Tool starting

Before operating the tool, always wear protective clothing, as it is shown in the picture, and check that all safety devices
are well assembled and can work properly.
•
Hold the handle with one hand. With the other one press the ON/OFF button (5).
•
The tool is ready for use.
WARNING!
•
Use the tool only for the purposes described in par. "Product description". Any other use could cause injuries.
•
Operate the tool only when it is inserted among the branches. Any improper use causes greater tool wear and
battery consumption.
5.1.1

Precautions for the use

•
Do not cut either branches with a diameter over 32 mm (STARK M model) or 37 mm (STARL L model), or metals,
stones or any object which is not a plant. When the blades get worn or damaged, replace them.
•
Rinse the shear by means of a clean and dry cloth.
•
To rinse the shear, do not use abrasive degreasers or containing solvents to rinse the shear.
•
For a proper shear operation follow the instructions. In case of damage do not use the shear, the battery and its charger.
•
Do not use the shear when it does not work properly.
•
It is dangerous to use a shear which does not work properly.
•
Always remove the battery before any operation of adjustment or parts replacement or before storing it at the end of
the work session. This allows to reduce the residual risks due to an involuntary tool activation.
•
The blades must be closed when the shear does not work.
•
The shear must be operated following the instructions and the way of use indicated in this manual, taking into consid-
eration the environment and the kind of work to carry out. It is recommended not to use the pruning shears in case of
poor skill or in situations which are different from the indicated ones, as it could be very dangerous.
•
After each use remove the residues from the blades and put lubricant. These operations guarantee that the blades are
kept in good conditions, reduce wear and extend the lifespan of the shear as well as of the blades.

Stopping the shear

The shear must be switched off at the end of each work session, therefore:
•
Close the blades
• Put the ON/OFF button (5) in "off" position
•
Remove the battery
•
Carefully put the shear into its packaging.
