indicating the maximum oil level or the upper edge of the oil level indicator, then firmly and tightly screw tank cap. If oil spills you
should carefully rub the remains of it before switching the pole pruner to its supply.
Adjustment operations The pole pruner allows you to set the angle of the cutting head and the length of the tool.
Setting the angle of cutting head is possible when you press the lock button (V), and then you set the angle of the head under one
of the angles at which it is possible to block the head position.
Setting the length of the tool is possible after pulling the lock lever (VI) and then adjustment of length of the guard and tightening
the lock lever. It is possible to steplessly adjust the length of guard in the area between movement delimiters.
Behind the front handle is a clamp, that allows you to attach the sling. The belt latch must be secured to the clamp (VII) to the lock

between the other branches. Prepare emergency escape in the case of falling branches danger. Escape route should be free from
obstacles also in the course of work. If, in the course of work on the escape road, the obstacles appear, they must be removed
before further work.
Connecting the pole pruner to power (IX)

Work with the pole pruner
Persons, who are going to work with the pole pruner for the first time, should seek advice, before starting their work,
on the work and safety from a qualified 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.
