Saw Chain Tension - Black+Decker PP610 Manual De Instrucciones

WARNING:
Let the tool work at its own pace. Do not overload.
WARNING:
When pruning trees:
• Guard Against Kickback which can result in severe injury or
death. See "KICKBACK", section to avoid the risk of kickback.
• Do not overreach. Make sure your footing is firm. Keep feet apart.
Divide your weight evenly on both feet.
• Use both hands to grip pole Saw as shown
in figure K. Use a firm grip. Thumbs and
fingers must wrap around Pole Saw handle
and pole.
• Never operate while in a tree, in any
awkward position, on a ladder or any other
unstable surface. You may lose control of
the Pole Saw causing severe injury.
Follow directions below to trim a tree.
1. Make sure Pole Saw is running at full speed before making a
cut. When starting a cut, place moving chain against limb. Hold
Pole Saw firmly in place to avoid possible bouncing or skating
(sideways movement) of the Pole Saw.
2. Make the first cut six inches away from tree trunk on underside of a
limb or branch. Use the top
of the guide bar to make this
cut. Guide the Pole Saw using
light pressure to make a cut
that is 1/3 of the diameter of
limb. Then make the finishing
cut from the top as shown in
figure L. Do not force Pole
Saw. The motor will overload
and can burn out. It will do the
job better and safer at the rate
for which it was intended.
NOTE: If you try to cut off thick branches from the bottom, the branch
will close in and pinch the saw chain in the cut. If you try to cut off
thick branches from the top, without a shallow undercut, the branch
will splinter and pull bark from the tree.

3. Remove Pole Saw from cut while it is running at full speed. Stop
Pole Saw by releasing trigger. Make sure chain has stopped
before setting Pole Saw down.
Saw chain sharpness
CAUTION: Sharp chain. Always wear protective gloves when
handling the chain. The chain is sharp and can cut you when it is
not running.
ImpORTANT: The chain cutters will dull immediately if they touch the
ground, stones, masonry or a nail while cutting.
To get the best possible performance from your chain saw it is
important to keep the teeth of the chain sharp. Chain sharpening
services are available from your nearest Black+Decker service
center.
NOTE: Each time the chain is sharpened, it loses some of the
low kickback qualities and extra caution should be used. It is
recommended that a chain be sharpened no more than four times.

pOLE SAW mAINTENANCE SECTION
Regular maintenance ensures a long effective life for the tool.
After every 10 minutes of use be sure to unplug the extension cord
and (be aware the chain and bar can be hot!) check the bar and chain
for correct tension and lubricate per pole saw instruction manual.
• Turn the bar over every time you sharpen the chain and every time
you replace the chain this helps avoid one-sided wear, especially at
the nose and underside of the bar.
• Keep cutting edge sharp and clean for best performance and to
reduce the risk of injury.
