Safety Checklist
To help maintain your cordless pruning saw for optimum
performance and safety, we recommend you complete this
checklist prior to each work session.
m
WARNING!
Do not insert the battery until you have
completed all of the checks.
• Inspect for any visible damage to the chain, guide bar, or
motor housing.
• Check that all the screws on the machine and guide bar
are tightly fastened.
• Clean the guide bar and chain of any debris.
• Make sure any ventilation slots are free of sawdust or
debris.
• Check that the chain is tensioned correctly and sharp.
• Check that the trigger remains locked until the safety lock
is pressed.
Operation
m
CAUTION!
Repeatedly starting and stopping an electric
motor within a few seconds can generate a great deal of heat
and damage the motor. To protect the life of your cordless
pruning saw, always wait at least five seconds after stopping
before restarting the saw.
m
WARNING!
Be sure that the chain is not in contact with
any object when you start the motor.
m
WARNING!
Keep hands away from chain. Keep hand
on handle. Do not overreach.
m
WARNING!
Maintain a firm grip. Do not let go of the
saw while it is in operation.
m
WARNING!
Do not operate the cordless pruning saw in
a tree, on a ladder, or on scaffolding. Using the tool under such
circumstances is extremely dangerous.
m
CAUTION!
The chain will continue to run for several
seconds after turning off the tool.
m
CAUTION!
Do not use the pruning saw under wet
conditions. Use extreme caution when cutting small brush,
saplings, or branches under tension. Such material may spring
back towards you or get caught on the saw which may result
in throwing you off balance, or pushing the saw out of control.
m
WARNING!
Do not allow familiarity with this type of tool
to cause you to ignore necessary precautions. Remember that
a careless fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict serious
injury.
m
WARNING!
Do not cut branches near electrical wires.
Hand-held Pruning Saw Operation
1. Insert the battery as shown in (Fig. 4).
2. To turn on the tool, firmly grip the pruning saw handle
and press the safety lock to deactivate the safety. Then
squeeze the trigger to activate the saw (Fig. 17).
NOTE: Do not squeeze the trigger until you are ready to
make a cut.
Trigger
3. With the pruning saw running, butt the base plate up
against the branch you wish to cut and let the saw do all
the cutting (Fig. 18). Apply only light pressure on the saw.
NOTE: The base plate helps to stabilize the saw and
significantly reduce vibrations. It also acts as a fulcrum,
allowing you to pivot the saw while cutting for better
control.
