WARNING: Recommend that first‑time users should
practice cutting on a pruner horse.
Cutting a felled tree or log into lengths. How you should
cut depends on how the log is supported. Use a saw horse
whenever possible as shown below.
1. Always start a cut with the pruner chain running at
full speed.
2. Place the ribbed bumper
area of the initial cut as shown below.
3. Turn the pruner on then rotate the pruner chain and bar
down into the tree, using the ribbed bumper as a hinge.
4. Once the pruner gets to a 45 ° angle, level the pruner
again and repeat steps until you cut fully through.
5. When the tree is supported along its entire length, make
a cut from the top (overbuck), but avoid cutting the earth
as this will dull your pruner quickly.

When supported at one end first, cut 1/3 the diameter
from the underside (underbuck). Then make the finishing
cut by overbucking to meet the first cut as shown below.

the lower 2/3 to meet the first cut as shown below.

•
When on a slope always stand on the uphill side of the
log. When "cutting through," to maintain complete
control reduce the cutting pressure near the end of the
cut without relaxing your grip on the pruner handles.
Don't let the chain contact the ground. After completing
the cut, wait for the pruner chain to stop before you
move the pruner. Always stop the motor before moving
from cut to cut.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and remove the battery pack
before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. An
accidental start‑up can cause injury.

WALT power tool has been designed to operate
e
over a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance.
Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool
care and regular cleaning.
Saw Chain Sharpening (Fig. O–Q)
CAUTION: Sharp chain. Always wear protective gloves
when handling the chain. The chain is sharp and can
cut you when it is not running.
WARNING: Sharp moving chain. To prevent accidental
operation, ensure that battery is removed from the tool
before performing the following operations. Failure to
do this could result in serious personal injury.
WARNING: Do not over file chain rakers, this will
increase the risk of kickback. If the chain has been
sharpened more than four times, replace it.
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 saw chain be sharpened no more
than four times.
NoTE: The cutters will dull immediately if they touch the
ground/dirt or a nail while cutting.
To get the best possible performance from your pruner it is
important to keep the teeth of the saw chain sharp. Follow
these helpful tips for proper saw chain sharpening:
1. For best results use a 5/32" (4.0 mm) file and a file holder
or filing guide to sharpen your saw chain. This will ensure
you always get the correct sharpening angles.
2. Place the file holder flat on the top plate and depth
gauge of the cutter.
3. Keep the correct top plate
your file guide parallel with your chain (file at 60 ° from
chain viewed from the side) as shown in Fig. O.
