Before starting the equipment

Before you connect the equipment to the mains supply make sure that the data on the rating plate are identical to the mains data.

Warning!
Always pull the power plug before making adjustments to the equipment.

Warning! Do not connect the chainsaw to the power supply until it has been fully assembled and the chain tension has been adjusted. Always wear protective gloves when working on the chainsaw to protect yourself against injury. Carefully unpack all parts and check that they are complete (Fig. 1).

Fitting the steady grip (Fig. 3a – 3c)

Remove the fastening screw (Fig. 3a/Item A) from the steady grip and open the fastening clip (Fig. 3b/Item B). Now mount the steady grip on the tube of the motor unit (Fig. 3b/Item 11a) as shown in Fig. 3b. Then close the fastening clip and secure with the fastening screw.

Mounting the extension pole and saw unit (Fig. 4a – 4c)

Depending on the height you need to reach, you can use the electric pole pruner with or without the extension pole (Fig. 2/Item 9). To use it, loosen the fastening screw on the motor unit (Fig. 4a/Item C). Remove the protective cap (Fig. 2/Item 14) from the extension pole and insert the extension pole into the mounting on the motor unit. When inserting the extension pole, ensure that the snap button latches in the hole in the mounting (Fig. 4b/ Item D). Then fasten the extension pole using the fastening screw. To mount the saw unit, loosen the fastening screw (Fig. 4c/Item C). Remove the protective cap (Fig. 2/Item 14) from the saw unit and insert the saw unit into the mounting on the extension pole. Once again, ensure that the snap button latches in the hole in the mounting (see Fig. 4b/Item D). Then fasten the saw unit using the fastening screw.

Assembly of the cutter bar and chain

• Undo the fixing screw (C) for the chain wheel cover (Fig. 5) using the hexagonal wrench (16).
  

• Take off the chain wheel cover (K) (Fig. 5).

• Lay the chain as shown in the groove which runs around the cutter bar (Fig. 6/Item A).
  

• Insert the cutter bar and chain as shown in the mounting on the chainsaw (Fig. 7), placing the chain around the chain wheel (Fig. 7 / Item B). The chain tensioning screw bolt (H) must be located in the cutter bar bolt opening.
  

• Attach the chain wheel cover (Fig. 8/Item C) and hand tighten the fastening nut (Fig. 8 / Item.K).

Important! Do not fully tighten the fi xing screw until after adjusting the chain tension (refer to point 5.3).

Tensioning the saw chain

Warning! Always disconnect the mains plug before performing any checks or adjustments. Always wear protective gloves when working on the chainsaw to protect yourself against injury.

• Loosen the fastening nut (C) of the chain wheel cover a few turns (Fig. 8).
  

• Adjust the chain tension with the chain tensioning screw (Fig. 9/Item D) using the Hex wrench (17). Turning the screw clockwise increases the chain tension, turning it anticlockwise decreases the chain tension. The chain tension is correct when the chain can be lifted by about 2 mm at the center of the cutter bar (Fig. 10).
  
  

• Tighten the fastening nut (C) of the chain wheel cover (Fig. 8).

Important! All of the chain links must lie properly in the guide groove of the cutter rail.

Notes on tensioning the chain:
The saw chain must be properly tensioned to ensure safe operation. You can tell that the chain tension is perfect if the saw chain can be lifted by around 2 mm in the middle of the cutter rail. As the saw chain heats up during cutting and thus changes in length, check the chain tension no less than every 10 minutes and adjust it again as required. This applies in particular to new saw chains. When you have fi nished working slacken the chain again, as the chain will shorten when it cools down. This will prevent the chain from being damaged.

Saw chain lubrication

Warning! Always disconnect the mains plug before performing any checks or adjustments. Always wear protective gloves when working on the chainsaw to protect yourself against injury.

Notice! Never operate the chain if it is not lubricated with saw chain oil. Use of the chainsaw without saw chain oil or if the oil level is below the “min” mark will damage the chainsaw.

Notice! Be aware of the temperature conditions: diff erent lubricants with completely diff erent viscosities are required at diff erent ambient temperatures. At lower temperatures you will need low viscosity oils in order to achieve a suffi cient lubricating fi lm. However, if the same low viscosity oil is used during the summer it will become even thinner due to the ambient temperatures alone, and as a result the lubricating fi lm could break down, causing the chain to overheat and become damaged. In addition, the chain oil would burn and produce unnecessary pollutants.

Filling the oil tank (Fig. 10a):

Warning! Fill in the oil outdoors and do not smoke while fi lling.

• Place the chainsaw on a flat surface.
• Clean the area around the oil tank cover (Item 21) and then open the oil tank cover.
• Fill the tank (Item 20) with saw chain oil. In the process, make sure that no dirt enters the tank, as this could cause the oil nozzle to become blocked.
• Close the oil tank cover (Item 21).

Adjusting the tilt angle (Fig. 10a – 10c)

Important: Disconnect the power plug before you adjust the tilt angle.
The saw head can be tilted to make the work as easy as possible. Pull the safety lever (Fig. 10a/ Item 22) towards the rear. Then grasp the rod (Fig. 10b/Item E). Press the locking lever (Fig. 10b/Item 23) using your index fi nger and release it again when the tilt angle is set to the position that you want. Make sure that the lever latches in place correctly. Then push the safety lever (Fig. 10c/ 22)
forwards again.

Important: When you have fi nished, make sure that the safety lever and the locking lever are latched correctly.

Important: The gear unit can become hot during operation.

Fitting the shoulder strap
Important: Always use the shoulder strap when working with the hedge trimmer. Switch off the equipment before you take off the shoulder strap. There is a risk of injury

1. Hook the carabiner into the strap holder as shown in Fig. 11/Item G.
2. Slip the shoulder strap over your shoulder.
3. Adjust the length of the shoulder strap so that the strap attachment is at waist level and you can work without fatigue.

Note:
The shoulder strap is equipped with a safety release (Fig. 11 / Item F) which you can use to quickly detach the shoulder strap from the hedge trimmer in case of danger. To operate the safety release, pull it downwards.

Adjusting the handle
Important: Disconnect the power plug before you adjust the handle.
Press the lock release (Fig. 11 / Item 15) to move the handle to the desired position (-90°/- 45°/0°/45°/90°). Make sure that the lock release latches in place correctly!

Operation

Please note that the statutory regulations governing noise abatement may diff er from one location to another.

Connecting to the power supply (Fig. 12)

• Connect the power cable (Item 5) to an extension cable (Item B) suitable for outdoor areas.
  Make sure that the extension cable is designed for the power rating of the chainsaw.

• Secure the extension cable with the stressrelief clip (Item 4) as shown in Fig. 12 to protect it against pulling forces and accidental disconnection.

• Connect the extension cable to a professionally installed safety mains outlet with ground contact. We recommend using a cable with a bright and highly visible color, e.g. red or yellow. This will reduce the risk of accidentally damaging it with the chainsaw.

On/Off switch

Switching on

• Hold the chainsaw by the handles with both hands (thumbs under the additional handle).
• Press and hold the safety lock-off (Fig. 11/ Item 8).
• To switch on the chainsaw, activate the ON/ OFF switch (Fig. 11/Item 7). You can then release the safety lock-off.

Switching off
Release the ON/OFF switch (Fig. 11/Item 7). Always disconnect the mains plug when you stop working, even if it is only for a short time.

Please watch out for the chain as it slows down to a standstill.

Working with the chainsaw

Preparations
To ensure that you can work safely, check the following points before every use and in the event of any damage:

Condition of the chainsaw
Inspect the chainsaw before the start of work for damage to the housing, the power cable, the saw chain and the cutter rail. Never use a chainsaw which is obviously damaged. – Danger of accident!

Danger! The protective devices must not be removed or modifi ed. – Danger of accident!
Never use the saw if the safety equipment is not working properly. Never try to repair safety related protection systems yourself – always have any work done by our service department or by a similarly qualifi ed workshop.
Use only the accessories and spare parts approved by the manufacturer, otherwise there is a risk of accidents or damage to the equipment.

Oil container
Fill level of the oil container. Even while working, keep checking that suffi cient oil is in the system. To avoid damaging the chainsaw, never run the saw if there is no oil in the system or if the oil drops below the “min” mark. On average, a single fi lling will last around 10 minutes depending on the number of pauses in cutting and the loads involved.

Saw chain
Tension of the saw chain, condition of the cutting elements. The sharper the chainsaw, the easier and more controllable it is to operate the chainsaw. The same also applies to the chain tension. Also while working you should check the chain tension no less than every 10 minutes in order to increase your safety. New saw chains in particular often tend to expand more.

Do not touch the saw chain while the device is switched on. If the saw chain is blocked by an object, switch the device off at once – then remove the object – Danger of injury!

Safety clothing
Always wear appropriate tight-fi tting safety clothing like special trousers which protect against cuts, protective gloves and safety shoes.

Hearing protection and protective goggles.
Wear a protective helmet with integral face and hearing protection. This will off er protection against falling branches and any branches if they spring back.

Safe working

• To ensure that you can work in safety you must use the equipment at a working angle of max. 60°.
• Neever stand under the branch you want to saw.
• Use special caution when working with branches under tension and splintered wood.
• Possible risk of injury caused by falling branches and catapulting pieces of wood.
• When the equipment is in operation keep other persons and animals away from the danger zone.
• The equipment is not protected from electric shock through contact with high-voltage cables. Keep a minimum distance of 10 m from live cables. Electric shock can cause fatal injury.
• When working on slopes always stand to the upper or left or right side of the branch you wish to cut.
• Hold the equipment as close as possible to your body. This will help you to keep your balance.

Cutting techniques

• When removing branches, hold the equipment at an angle of max. 60° to the horizontal to avoid being hit by a falling branch (Fig. 15).
  

• Start with the bottom branches on the tree. This will make it easier for the cut branches to drop

CAUTION! Never stand underneath the branch you are sawing – always keep out of the range of falling branches! – Branches landing on the ground could bounce up again – Danger of injury

• After completing a cut, the weight of the saw will abruptly increase for the operator as the saw is no longer supported by the branch.
  This can result in you losing control over the saw.

• Remove the saw from the cut only with the saw chain still running. This will prevent the saw from getting jammed.

• Never cut with the tip of the saw.

• Never cut into the bulging branch collar. This will prevent the tree from healing.

Sawing off smaller branches (Fig. 13):

Place the contact surface of the saw onto the branch. This will prevent the saw from making jerky movements when you begin a cut. Exerting slight pressure, guide the saw from the top to the bottom through the branch.

Sawing off larger and longer branches (Fig. 14):

Carry out a relief cut when working on larger  branches.
Start by sawing through 1/3 of the branch diameter (a) from the bottom to the top with the top side
of the cutter rail. Then saw towards the fi rst cut (b) from the top to the bottom with the bottom side of the cutter rail.
Saw off longer branches in several steps to keep control over the impact location.

Kick-back!

The term “kickback” describes what happens when the running chainsaw suddenly kicks upward and backward. Usually, this is caused by contact between the tip of the cutter rail and the workpiece or the saw chain becoming trapped. In the event of kickback, large forces occur suddenly and violently. As a result, the chainsaw usually reacts uncontrollably. This can often result in very serious injuries to the worker or persons in the vicinity. The risk of kickback is at its greatest when the saw is positioned for a cut in the region of the tip of the cutter rail, as the leverage eff ect is greatest there. It is therefore safest to position the saw as fl at as possible.

Warning!

• Make sure that the chain tension is always correctly adjusted.
• Only use a chainsaw if it is in perfect working order.
• Only work with a saw chain that has been properly sharpened in accordance with the instructions.
• Never cut with the upper edge or the tip of the cutter rail.
• Always hold the chainsaw firmly with both hands.

Cutting wood which is under tension
Danger!
Special care is required when cutting wood which is under tension. Wood which is under tension from which it is released by cutting may in some cases react completely unpredictably and uncontrollably. In the worst case this could result in extremely severe or even fatal injuries. This type of work must only be performed by persons who have been specially trained.

Maintenance

Replacing the saw chain and cutter rail

The cutter rail needs to be replaced if the guide groove of the cutter rail is worn;
Proceed as described in the section “Assembly of the cutter rail and the saw chain”.

Checking the automatic chain lubrication

You should check the operation of the automatic chain lubrication system on a regular basis in order to guard against overheating and the associated damage to the cutter rail and the saw chain. To do this, point the tip of the cutter rail towards a smooth surface (board, section of a cut tree) and allow the chainsaw to run. If an increasing oil trace becomes evident during this process then the automatic chain lubrication system is working properly. If no clear oil trace is evident then please refer to the corresponding instructions in “Troubleshooting”. If the information contained there still fails to remedy the situation then please contact our service department or another similarly qualifi ed workshop. Important! Do not actually touch the surface with the tip of the cutter rail when performing this test. Keep a safe distance (approx. 20 cm).

Sharpening the saw chain

Eff ective working with the chainsaw is only possible if the saw chain is in good condition and sharp. This also reduces the risk of kickback. The saw chain can be re-sharpened by any dealer. Do not attempt to sharpen the saw chain yourself unless you have the necessary special tools and experience.

Replacing the power cable

Danger!
If the power cable for this equipment is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its after-sales service or similarly trained personnel to avoid danger.

Cleaning, storage and ordering of spare parts

Carry out the cleaning and maintenance work before putting into storage.
Danger!

• Always disconnect the mains plug before cleaning the chainsaw.
• Never immerse the unit in water or other liquids in order to clean it.

Cleaning

• Regularly clean the clamping mechanism by blowing it out with compressed air or cleaning
  it with a brush. Do not use tools for cleaning.

• Keep the handles free of grease so that you can maintain a firm grip.

• Clean the equipment as required with a damp cloth and, if necessary, mild washing up liquid. 10.2 Storage and transportation

• If you are not going to use the chainsaw for an extended period of time, remove the chain oil from the tank. Briefly immerse the saw chain and the cutter rail into an oil bath and then wrap them in oil paper.

• Store the equipment and its accessories out of the reach of children in a dark and dry place at above freezing temperature. The ideal storage temperature is between 5 and 30°C.
