Causes and Avoidance of Setbacks

Kickbacks can occur if the tip of the bar hits an object or if the wood bends and jams the saw chain in the cut. Contact with the tip of the bar can in some cases result in an unexpected rearward-facing reaction, flapping the saw bar up and toward the operator.

The jamming of the saw chain on the upper edge of the saw bar can quickly push the bar back in the direction of the operator. Any of these reactions can cause you to lose control of the saw and potentially cause serious injury. Do not rely solely on the safety devices built into the chainsaw. As a chain saw user, you should take various measures to ensure that you can work without accidents or injuries.

Kickback is the result of incorrect or incorrect use of the power tool. It can be prevented by taking suitable precautionary measures, as described below:

• Hold the pole saw firmly with both hands, with your thumb and fingers gripping the pole saw handles. Bring your body and arms in a position where you can withstand the kickback forces. If appropriate measures are taken, the operator can control the kickback forces. Never let go of the pole saw.
• Avoid abnormal postures. This prevents accidental contact with the tip of the bar and enables better control of the chainsaw in unexpected situations.
• Always use replacement bars and saw chains specified by the manufacturer. Incorrect replacement bars and chains can cause the chain to break and / or kickback.
• Follow the manufacturer's instructions for sharpening and maintaining the saw chain. Depth gauges that are too low increase the tendency to kickback.

After Each Work

• Turn off the device, remove the battery, and then put the device in a safe place.
• Do not store the device within the reach of children.
• Make sure that the ventilation slots on the device are free from dirt.
• Spare parts must meet the requirements specified by the manufacturer. Only use original spare parts or the spare parts approved by the manufacturer. When replacing, please observe the installation instructions provided and remove the battery beforehand.
• Have repairs carried out exclusively by a qualified specialist or a specialist workshop.

Operation

Switch ON/OFF

Insert the battery in the rail provided. Then press the safety button (Figure 6, point 1) in from the side, only then can you operate the ON/OFF switch (Figure 6, point 2). The device will now start. When you release the ON/OFF switch, the device stops working. NOTE: The cutting tool can still run a little.

Operating the Pole Saw

1. Search the work area and remove interfering objects.
2. Before starting work, check the safety of the device.
3. Take the device in both hands.
4. Switch on the pole saw before you start cutting.
5. Apply even pressure on the device, but not with excessive force.

CAUTION RISK OF INJURY! ONLY USE THE POLE SAW UP TO A MAXIMUM ANGLE OF 60°. NEVER SAW OFF A BRANCH DIRECTLY ABOVE YOUR HEAD!

1. Start at the bottom of the trunk and work upwards.
2. For a clean cut, thick branches should be sawn in 2 steps:

a. Saw the branch from bottom to top to 1/3 of the branch diameter (see above figure to the right, point 1). b. Saw the branch a little further outside from top to bottom (see above figure to the right, point 2).

1. Cut off longer branches piece by piece.
2. When delimbing lying trunks, always first saw off the branches that protrude freely into the air. Only cut off supporting branches when the trunk has been sawn into manageable lengths.

ATTENTION RISK OF INJURY! BRANCHES THAT ARE RESTING OR UNDER TENSION CAN WEDGE THE SAW CHAIN IN THE WOOD.

Maintenance

CAUTION: REMOVE THE BATTERY FROM THE DEVICE BEFORE STARTING ANY WORK ON THE POWER TOOL. SHARP CUTTING TEETH; ALWAYS WEAR PROTECTIVE GLOVES! DO NOT USE OR LIQUID DETERGENTS.

• Clean the pole saw after each use with a dry cloth or, if it is heavily soiled, with a brush.
  • Never spray the device with water.
• Keep the contacts of the battery and the device clean and free of dust.
• Remove the chain cover and then use a soft brush to remove any debris from the guide bar, saw chain, sprocket and chain cover.
• The saw chain must not sag, but it should be able to be pulled 2-3 millimeters off the saw bar in the middle of the saw bar.

1. First cut the sides of the hedge and then the top edge.

2. Cut the hedge from bottom to top.

3. Hold the hedge trimmer at an angle of 5–10° to the hedge to make a straight cut.

4. Cut the hedge in a trapezoidal shape. This prevents discoloration of the lower hedge area due to lack of light.

1. Trim the top edges of the hedge a little round.

2. Cut in multiple passes if heavy pruning is required.

3. If necessary, stretch a guideline if you want to cut the hedge evenly.

4. Trim the young hedge plants to the desired shape. The main shoot should not be damaged until the hedge has reached the desired height. All other shoots can be cut in half.

Ideal cutting times:

• Deciduous hedges: June and October
• Coniferous hedges: April and August

Fast growing hedges (e.g. conifers): from May approx. Every 6 weeks

WARNING! Watch out for birds nesting in the hedge. Only cut after the chicks have hatched or leave out this area of the hedge.

Lithium Battery Care and Maintenance

Top 3 Battery Care Requirements

1. Charge battery before first use. The battery may arrive with some charge, regardless of this the battery must be charged for one hour on the initial charge and one hour for each subsequent charge.
2. Charge battery immediately when it is depleted. Do not store a depleted battery. This will permanently impact the life of the battery. If the battery is going to be stored for a period of time, fully charge the battery before storing.
3. Disconnect battery when not in use. To prolong the life of a battery, disconnect it from the unit when not in use. Disconnect chargers from the battery once charged.

To ensure the battery maintains optimum performance, follow the guidelines outlined below.

• For best results, charge batteries in temperatures between 10°C and 30°C
- When battery is charged, disconnect the charger from the power supply and remove the battery from the charger.
- If a battery is stored or otherwise unused for an extended period, and the battery has no charge remaining when you check it, consider it to be damaged. Do not attempt to recharge it or to use it. Replace it with a new battery.
• Use only with the battery charger specified by the manufacturer.

- Ensure that the battery charger electrical cord is not subjected to damage or stress. Do not operate the battery charger if it has a damaged electrical cord or plug.

- Do not use the charger in wet areas or expose it to rain or water.

- The typical estimated life of a Lithium-Ion battery is about two to three years or 300 to 500 charge cycles, whichever occurs first. One charge cycle is a period of use from fully charged, to fully discharged, and fully recharged again

- Explosion hazard – protect the battery against heat; for example, direct sunlight and fire. Do not store batteries in vehicles or locations subject to heat.

- Batteries can explode in the presence of an ignition source, such as a pilot light. To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never use any cordless product in the presence of open flame. Exploding batteries can propel debris and chemicals.

- Do not open the battery – danger of short-circuiting and/or explosion.

- Do not attempt to destroy or disassemble the battery pack or remove any of its components.

- Do not touch the battery terminals with metal objects and/or body parts as short-circuit and/or personal injury may result.

- Explosion hazard – do not open and/or short-circuit the battery.

- Poison hazard – battery leakage (liquid ejection). Under extreme conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery – avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, immediately seek medical attention, and flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, immediately seek medical attention, flush with clean water for at least 10 minutes. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

- Dispose of non-serviceable batteries in an environmentally responsible manner and according to local regulations.

Failure to adhere to the requirements above may result in the battery becoming inoperative or battery life being reduced. In extreme cases or abuse, battery overheating or fire may result.

Maintenance

CAUTION! Remove the battery from the device before starting any work on the power tool. When maintaining sharp cutting blades, wear protective gloves! Do not use water or liquid detergents.

• Clean the hedge trimmer after each use with a dry cloth or with a brush if there is stubborn dirt.
  • Never spray the hedge trimmer with water.
• Keep the contacts of the battery and the device clean and free of dust.
• Clean the cutting blade after each use. Remove all dirt, leaves, etc.
• Lubricate the cutting blade with maintenance oil after each use to ensure a long service life for the hedge trimmer. Use environmentally friendly lubricants.
• Lay the hedge trimmer on its side for oiling and apply a thin film of oil to the cutting blade.
