releasing the switch.
Switching off the tool is carried out by releasing the pressure on the switch.
When you stop the chain of tool you must disconnect it from mains and perform maintenance.
Work with the pole pruner
Persons, who are going to work with the pole pruner for the fi rst time, should seek advice, before starting their work,
on the work and safety from a qualifi ed operator of a pole pruner.
When working you should observe basic occupational safety rules.. You should also take into account the possibility
of the pole pruner rebound towards the operator. The pole pruner can bounce in the direction of the operator in the case, when
the cutting chain hits a resistance.
To minimize this risk you should:
Pay attention to the location of the peak of guide when cutting. It is forbidden to cut with upper quarter of the top guide (XI).
You should cut only with the chain, which moves across the bottom part of the guide. For the cut wood you should apply only the
pole pruner, which is already running. Do not start the pole pruner after the it is applied to the processed wood.
Do not stand in the cutting plane. This will reduce the risk of injury when the pole pruner rebounds (XII)
Always, during working, you should hold the pole pruner with both hands.
Make sure, the chain is always sharpened and properly tight.
When cutting branches and boughs you should not cut them close to the trunk, but fi rst at a distance of about 15 cm from the trunk.
You should make two incisions on the depth equal to 1/3 the branch diameter about 8 cm apart. One incision from the bottom, the
second from the top. Then cut a branch right next to the trunk to a depth equal to 1/3 the diameter of the branch. Finish cutting by
cutting the branch next to the trunk from the top. It is forbidden to cut branches by cutting them upwards (XIII).
In the case when the pole pruner is wedged during cutting the trunk, you should never left it with running engine in this position.
You should switch off the tool motor, disconnect it from its power supply and remove the pole pruner from the trunk by using
wedges.
It is forbidden to use of the pole pruner to hedge forming or cutting of shrubs.
Do not touch ground by the cutting head, chain and guide, do not allow for contamination of the tool by soil.
Safety recommendations for battery loading
Attention! Before loading may start make sure the body of the charger, the cable and the plug are not broken or damaged. It
is prohibited to use a damaged loading dock and charger! For the purpose of loading batteries only the charging dock and the
charger provided may be used. Using another charger may be a cause of fi re or damage the tool. Batteries may be charged only
in a dry room, protected from unauthorised persons, particularly children. Do not use the charging dock and the charger without
permanent supervision of an adult! If it is necessary to leave the room where loading is taking place, it is required to disconnect the
charger from the mains, removing the charger from the mains socket. In case when smoke comes out of the charger, or a strange
smell is emitted, etc., it is required to immediately remove the plug of the charger from the mains socket!
The drill and automatic return screwdriver is provided with an unloaded battery, so before work may commence, it is required
to charge it following the procedure below, using the charger and charging dock provided. Li-ION batteries do not show the so
called "memory eff ect", so it is allowed to charge them at any moment. However, it is recommended to discharge them during
normal work, and then load them to their full capacity. If due to the nature of the task it is not possible to do so each time, then it
is required to do it at least from time to time. Under no circumstances is it allowed to discharge the batteries short-circuiting the
electrodes, since this would cause irreversible damage! It is also prohibited to check the load of the batteries, short-circuiting the
electrodes for sparking.
Storage of the battery
In order to prolong the life of the battery, it is required to provide adequate storage conditions. The batteries can go through ap-
proximately 500 „loading - discharging" cycles. The battery must be stored between 0 and 30°C, at the relative humidity of 50%. In
order to store the battery for a prolonged period, it is required to charge it to approximately 70% of its capacity. In case of prolonged
storage, it is required to recharge the battery once a year. Do not permit excessive discharging of the battery, since this would
reduce its life and may cause irreversible damage.
During storage, the battery will be gradually unloading due to leakage conductance. The process of automatic unloading depends
on the temperature of storage, since the higher the temperature, the fastest the process. In case of incorrect storage of batteries,
there is a danger of electrolyte leakage. In case of leakage, it is required protect the leakage with neutralizing agent. In case of
contact of electrolyte with the eyes, it is required to rinse the eyes abundantly, and then immediately seek medical assistance. It
is prohibited to use a tool with a damaged battery.
In case the battery is completely worn out, it is required to deposit it at a special point dedicated to disposal of such waste.
Transport of the batteries
Lithium-ion batteries are in accordance with legal regulations treated as dangerous waste. The user of the tool may transport the
tool with the battery or only batteries by land. Then no additional conditions must be complied with. In transport is realised by third
parties (for example dispatch through courier service), then it is required to proceed in accordance with regulations for transport
of dangerous materials. Before shipment, contact an authorised person.
