REMOVING PACKAGING
1. Remove the items from the box carefully. Check
whether the listed items are completely present in
the box.
2. Check the device carefully for transportation damage.
3. Do not throw any packaging materials away until

the pole whenever you are operating this tool.
INSTALLING THE REAR HANDLE (Fig. 1)
1. Insert the handle into the telescopic pipe until it reach-
es the stop (use the guidance groove) and tighten
using the coupling ring.
INSTALLING AND ADJUSTING THE FRONT HANDLE
(Fig. 2)
1. Insert the handle into the holder and tighten using the
star-shaped knob.
2. Move the handle into the desired position. Press the
locking lever down to lock the handle in place.

INSTALLING THE CHAIN AND GUIDE PLATE (Fig. 4 - 6)
(for Pole pruner ITKS 800)
1. Place the chain in the guidance groove of the guide
plate. Ensure the cutting direction is correct. There
are arrows on the chain; these must match the arrows
on the housing to ensure that the chain is mounted
correctly.
2. Secure the chain and guide plate. Place the chain
around the drive wheel and place the guide plate on
the device. Ensure that the chain adjuster locates in
the hole of the guide plate.
3. Now place the cover back on and pull the chain tight.
4. Do not yet tighten the fastening screw completely.
5. Tension the chain so that a maximum of 2 mm can be
lifted in the middle (see the tensioning chapter) and
tighten the fastening screw.

it must be replaced. The guide plate can be ordered from
the manufacturer.
TENSIONING THE CHAIN (Fig. 8)
The chain must not be too loose. It must be able to be
lifted approx. 2-3 millimetres off the guide plate. Use the
chain adjuster to tension the chain. Always remove the
plug from the socket immediately before you carry out
maintenance tasks on the device. The Allen key screw of
the chain adjuster is on the front of the saw attachment,
next to the guide plate. Turning in a clockwise direction
tightens the chain, turning in an anticlockwise direction
loosens the chain. Pay attention to the sharp cutting teeth
of the saw chain.
