Warning! When pruning trees:
Guard Against Kickback which can result in severe injury
u
or death. See "KICKBACK", section to avoid the risk of
kickback.
Do not overreach. Make sure your footing is firm. Keep
u
feet apart. Divide your weight evenly on both feet.
Use both hands to grip Pole Saw as shown in figure A25.
u
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,
u
on a ladder or any other unstable surface. You may lose
control of the Pole Saw causing severe injury.
Trimming a tree (fig. A26)
Make sure Pole Saw is running at full speed before
u
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.
Make the first cut 150mm away from tree trunk on
u
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 A26. 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.
Remove Pole Saw from cut while it is running at full
u
speed. Stop Pole Saw by releasing ON/OFF switch. Make
sure chain has stopped before setting Pole Saw down.
Chain and bar
After every few hours of use, remove the sprocket cover,
guide bar and chain and clean thoroughly using a soft bristle
brush. Ensure oiling hole on bar is clear of debris. When
replacing dull chains with sharp chains it is good practice to
flip the chain bar from bottom to top.
Saw Chain Sharpening
Note: The cutters will dull immediately if they touch the ground
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. Follow these helpful tips for proper saw chain
sharpening:

(Original instructions)
For best results use a 4.5 mm file and a file holder or filing
u
guide to sharpen your chain. This will ensure you always
get the correct sharpening angles.
Place the file holder flat on the top plate and depth gauge
u
of the cutter.
Figure A27- Keep the correct top plate (11a) filing angle
u
line of 30° on your file guide parallel with your chain (file at
60° from chain viewed from the side).
Sharpen cutters on one side of the chain first. File from
u
the inside of each cutter to the outside. Then turn your
saw around and repeat the processes for cutters on the
other side of the chain.
Note: Use a flat file to file the tops of the rakers (portion of
chain link in front of the cutter) so they are about 0.635 mm
below the tips of the cutters as shown in figure A28.
Figure A29 - Keep all cutter lengths equal.
u
If damage is present on the chrome surface of the
u
top plates or side plates, file back until such damage
is removed.
Note: After filing, the cutter will be sharp, use extra caution
during this process.
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
Using the hedge trimmer attachment
Warning! Before assembly, make sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery is removed.
Installing and removing hedge trimmer attach-
ments. (fig B1)
To fit an attachment or the extension pole to the base unit
u
(1), align the attachment/pole base with the power head
as shown in figure B1.
Firmly push the attachment or extension pole onto the
u
base unit until it snaps into place and an audible
click is heard.
Note: Attachments fit onto the extension pole in the same
manner as the base unit.
Ensure attachment is securely attached to the base unit or
u
extension pole by gently pulling it away. The attachment or
the extension pole should remain in place.
To remove an attachment or extension pole, depress
u
the release button (14) or (19) located on the side of
the attachment or extension pole and pull attachment or
extension pole away from the base unit or extension pole.
Note: Only use attachments that are specifically designed for
and are compatible with the power head.
Correct hand position (fig. B2, B3)
Base mode, proper hand position requires the left hand on the
bail handle (3), with the right hand on the main handle (2).
