Operation; Servicing Instructions - Makita EY2650H Manuel D'instructions

OPERATION

Standing position
• Stand on stable surface. Make the angle of the pole saw become 60° against
the horizontal ground.
• Cut lower branches first so that the branches fall easier.
• Always keep escape route in case a cut branch falls towards the operator.
Method
• Start the engine, and pull the throttle until the saw chain reaches its full
speed.
• Press the saw chain onto the branch lightly. Do not force the equipment,
otherwise it may damage the equipment.
• Never use the tip of the bar for cutting. Otherwise dangerous kickback may
occur, and it may result in personal injury.
Tips for cutting thick branch
When you cut a thick branch, use the following method.
1. Make a small notch on the under side of the branch where is a bit distance
from you intend to cut.
2. Cut the branch from the upper side of where you notched.
3. Make another small notch on the under side of the branch where you
intend to cut.
4. Cut where you intend to cut from the upper side.

SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: Before doing any work on the equipment, always stop the engine and pull the plug cap off the spark plug (see "checking the spark
plug").
Always wear protective gloves!
When inspecting or maintaining the equipment, always put it down. Assembling or adjusting the equipment in an upright position
may result in serious injury.
Always put the guide bar cover when servicing.
To ensure a long service life and to avoid any damage to the equipment, the following servicing operations should be performed at regular
intervals.
Daily checkup and maintenance
- Before operation, check the machine for loose screws or missing parts. Pay particular attention to a specified attachment for mounting in
place securely.
- Before operation, always check for clogging of the cooling air passage and the cylinder fins.
Clean them if necessary.
- Perform the following work daily after use:
• Clean the equipment externally and inspect for damage.
• Clean the air filter. When working under extremely dusty conditions, clean the filter several times a day.
• Check that there is sufficient difference between idling and engagement speed to ensure that the attachment is at a standstill while the
engine is idling (if necessary reduce idling speed).
If under idling conditions the tool should still continue to run, consult your nearest Authorized Service Agent.
- Check the functioning of the I-O switch, the lock-off lever and the control lever.
