Always hold the products firmly with both hands. Hold the pole with your left hand and the rear handle with your right hand. Fully grip both handles at all
times during operation. Never operate the product using only one hand. Ensure the power cord is located to the rear, away from the chain and the wood and
is positioned so that it cannot be caught on branches or similar objects during cutting.
Only use the product with a secure stance. Hold the product to the right-hand side of your body.
Use of the shoulder strap:
1. Wear the shoulder belt so that it lies over the right shoulder (Fig. I).
2. Fasten the carabiner hook on the shaft bracket on the shaft (Fig. J).
Never carry the belt diagonally across your shoulders and chest, but rather only on one shoulder, so that you can rapidly move away from the tool in case of
danger.
The Saw chain (2) must be running at full speed for a while before it makes contact with the wood. Use the spike bumper to secure the product onto the wood
before starting to cut and use it as a leverage point while cutting.
Safe work
• In order to ensure safe work, a maximum working angle of 60°is prescribed. (Fig. K)
• Never stand below the branch to be sawed.
• Exercise caution when sawing branches under tension or splintering wood.
• Potential risk of injury from falling branches and flying wood projectiles!
• If the machine is in operation, keep persons and animals away from the danger area.
• The machine is not protected against electric shock when coming into contact with high-voltage lines.
Maintain a minimum clearance of 10 m from current carrying lines. Life-threatening danger from electric shock!
• When working on an incline, always stand above or to the side of the branch to be sawed.
• Hold the machine as close as possible to your body.
By doing so, you maximize your balance.
