Switching on and off
Warning! Never attempt to lock or fix a switch actuator in the
on position.
For your safety, this tool is equipped with a double switching
system. This system prevents starting the tool inadvertently.
Switching on (fig. F)
Ensure a firm grip on the handles and then squeeze
both switch actuators (5) to switch the unit on.
Switching off (fig.F)
Release either of the switch actuators (5).
Note: Both switch actuators must be activated for the
product to be used.
Do not force the tool, allow it to do the work. It will do a better
and safer job at the speed for which it is designed. Excessive
force will stretch the chain.
If the saw chain or chain guide bar (3) becomes jammed:
Switch the tool off.
Disconnect the tool from the mains supply.
Open the cut with wedges to relieve the strain on the
chain guide bar (3). Do not try to wrench the saw free.
Start a fresh cut.
Trimming branches (fig. G)
Ensure that there are no local by-laws or regulations that
would prohibit or control the trimming of the tree limbs.
Make sure the tool is running at full speed before making
a cut.
Hold the tool firmly in place to avoid possible bouncing
or sideways movement of the tool.
Guide the tool using light pressure.
Always cut down from the top. This way you will avoid
pinching the saw chain.
Remove branches as shown in fig G, starting from the
branch tip, reduce the branch in logical steps cutting off
small sections.
Remove the tool from the cut while it is running at full
speed.
