contain long hair.
•
Use safety glasses - always use face or dust
mask if the area in which you are working is
dusty. The purpose of the safety rules is to
attract your attention to possible dangers.
The safety symbols and the explanations
with them, require your careful attention and
understanding. The safety warnings do not
by themselves eliminate any danger. The
instruction or warnings they give are not
substitutes for proper accident prevention
measures.
•
Use right appliance - do not use appliance for
any job except that for which it is intended.
•
Do not force appliance - it will do the job
better and with less likelihood of a risk of
injury at the rate for which it was designed.
•
Do not overreach - keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
•
Stay alert. Use common sense. Do not
operate appliance when you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication.
•
When not in use, appliances should be stored
indoors in dry places out of reach of children.

after use.
Pole pruners safety warnings
1) Keep all parts of the body away from the saw
chain. Do not remove cut material or hold
material to be cut when blades are moving.
Make sure the switch is off when clearing
jammed material. Saw chain continues to
move after the switch is turned off . A moment
of inattention while operating the extended-
reach pruner may result in serious personal
injury.
2) Carry the extended-reach pruner by the
handle with the saw chain stopped. When
transporting or storing the extended-reach
pruner, always fi t the saw chain device cover.
Proper handling of the extended-reach pruner
will reduce possible personal injury from the
saw chain.
3) Hold the extended-reach pruner by insulated
gripping surfaces only, because the saw
chain may contact hidden wiring or its
own cord. A saw chain contacting a ″live″
wire may make exposed metal parts of the
extended-reach pruner ″live″ and could give
the operator an electric shock.
Exception: “or its own cord“ maybe omitted for
battery-operated appliances.
4) Do not use the extended-reach pruner in bad
weather conditions, especially when there is
a risk of lightning. This decreases the risk of
being struck by lightning.
5) To reduce the risk of electrocution, never use
near any electrical power lines. Contact with
or use near power lines may cause serious
injury or electric shock resulting in death.
6) Always use two hands when operating the
extended-reach pruner. Hold the extended-
reach pruner with both hands to avoid loss of
control.
7) Always use head protection when operating
the extended-reach pruner overhead. Falling
debris can result in serious personal injury.

have been actuated. Always wear protective
gloves when working on the equipment to protect
yourself against injury. Carefully unpack all parts
and check that they are complete (Fig. 1).
5.1 General information on assembly
a) Fig. 2-3: Push the tube (6) onto the handle
housing (18) as far as the mark and screw it
tight with the assembly nut (5).
b) Fig. 4: Hook the carabiner (19) of the shoulder
strap (7) into the strap attachment (20).
c) Fig. 5: The additional handle (8) consists
of the hexagon screw (21) and lock (22). It
is fi tted to the handle attachment (23) as
illustrated. Push the hexagon screw (21) into
the additional handle and screw it tight to the
lock (22).
5.2 Fitting the chain saw mounting kit (for
use as a pole-operated pruner)
5.2.a Assembly of the cutter rail and the saw
chain
•
Undo the fastening screw (27) of the chain
wheel cover (Fig. 6).
•
Take off the chain wheel cover.
•
Lay the chain as shown in the groove which
runs around the cutter rail (Fig. 7).
•
Insert the cutter rail and chain as shown in
the mounting in the chainsaw (Fig. 8). At
the same time guide the chain around the
sprocket wheel (Fig. 8/ Item 28).
•
Attach the chain wheel cover and fasten it
hand-tight with the fastening screw (Fig. 9/
Item 27).
Do not fully tighten the fastening screw until after
you have adjusted the chain tension (see section
5.2.b.).
5.2.b Tensioning the saw chain
Caution! Always remove the battery from the
device before inspection and adjustment. Always
wear protective gloves when working on the
chainsaw to protect yourself against injury.
•
Undo the fastening screw (27) of the chain
wheel cover a few turns (Fig. 6).
•
Adjust the chain tension with the chain
tensioning screw (Fig. 10/Item 28). Turning
the screw clockwise increases the chain
tension, turning it counter-clockwise
decreases the chain tension. The saw chain
is correctly tensioned if it can be lifted approx.
0.08 in. (2 mm) in the middle of the cutter rail
(Fig. 11).
•
Tighten the fastening screw (27) of the chain
wheel cover (Fig. 9).
Important! All the chain links must lie properly in
the guide groove of the cutter rail.
Notes on tensioning the chain:
The chain must be properly tensioned to ensure
safe operation. When the saw chain can be
raised by around 0.08 in. (2 mm) in the middle
of the cutter rail, you know that the chain tension
is ideal. During cutting, the temperature of the
chain rises and its length changes. It is important
therefore to check the chain tension at least every
10 minutes and to adjust it again as required. This
applies in particular to new saw chains. When you
have fi nished working, slacken the chain again as
it will shorten when it cools down. This will help to
prevent damage to the chain.

5.2.c Saw chain lubrication
Caution! Always remove the battery from the
device before inspection and adjustment. Always
wear protective gloves when working on the
chainsaw to protect yourself against injury.
Important! 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 viewing window will result in damage to the
chainsaw!
Important! 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. 12):
•
Place the chainsaw on a flat surface.
•
Clean the area around the oil tank cap (Fig.
12/Item 31) and then open the oil tank cap.
•
Fill the tank (Fig. 12/Item 30) 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 cap (Fig. 12/Item 31).
After the chain saw mounting kit has been fi tted
and when the equipment is not being used, slip
the cutter rail guard (Fig. 1/Item 17) over the
mounted cutter rail with saw chain in order to
prevent injuries.
5.3 Adjusting the additional handle (Fig. 13-
14)
a) Setting the tilt of the additional handle
Open the lock (22). Set the desired tilt of the
additional handle (8). Close the lock.
b) Shifting the additional handle
Open the lock and slide the additional handle (8)
into the required position. Close the lock.
5.4 Using the shoulder strap
Warning! Always use the shoulder strap when
working with the equipment. Switch off the
equipment before you take off the shoulder strap
(Otherwise there is a risk of injury.)
1. Hook the carabiner (Fig. 4/Item A) into the
strap attachment (20).
2. Slip the shoulder strap (Fig. 15/Item 7) over
your shoulder.
3. Adjust the length of the shoulder strap so that
the strap attachment is at waist level (Fig. 15).
4. The shoulder strap is equipped with a buckle.
Press the hooks together (Fig. 16) if you need
to put down the equipment quickly.
5. To change the strap position on the
equipment, press together the two metal
loops on the strap attachment (Fig. 4/Item 20)
and adjust the strap attachment on the tube.
5.5. Adjusting the angle of the handle
(Fig. 17)
Press the two safety lock-off s (24) and adjust
the angle of the handle (1) to any of 4 latching
positions.
5.6. Adjusting the angle of the motor housing
(Fig. 18)
Press the two safety lock-off s (24) and adjust the

7. Working with the chainsaw
mounting kit
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.
Oil container
Level of oil in the oil container: Both before and
during your work make sure that there is always
suffi cient oil 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 20
minutes depending on the number of pauses in
cutting and the loads involved.

- 16 -
Saw chain
Tension of the chain, condition of the cutting
elements: The sharper the chain, the easier and
more controllable it is to operate the chainsaw.
The same also applies to the chain tension. For
greater safety you must check the chain tension
before your work and at least every 10 minutes
during your work. New chains in particular tend to
expand more.
Safety clothing
Always wear appropriate tight-fi tting safety
clothing such as 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 recoiling branches.
Safe working
•
To ensure that you can work in safety you
must use the equipment at a working angle of
max. 60°.
•
Never stand under the branch you want to
saw.
•
Use special caution when working with
branches under tension and splintering 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 33 ft (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
want 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. 28).
•
Start with the bottom branches on the tree.
This will make it easier for the cut branches to
drop.
•
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. 26):
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 large and long branches (Fig. 27):
Carry out a relief cut when working on large
branches.
Start by sawing through 1/3 of the branch
diameter from the top to the bottom with the top
side of the cutter rail (Fig. 27/Point 1). Then saw
towards the fi rst cut from the top to the bottom
with the bottom side of the cutter rail (Fig. 27/
Point 2).
Saw off long branches in several steps to keep
control over the impact location.
Kickback
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 by 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.
Danger!
•
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
Special care is required when cutting wood which
is under tension. Cutting wood which is under
tension can release the tension, causing the
wood to react out of control. In the worst case this
can result in severe and even fatal injuries. This
type of work must be performed only by specially
trained persons.
8. Cleaning, maintenance and
ordering spare parts
HAZARD!
Remove the battery pack before doing any
cleaning and maintenance work.
8.1 Cleaning
•
Regularly clean the tensioning mechanism by
blowing it out with compressed air or cleaning
it with a brush. Do not use any tools for
cleaning.
•
Keep the handles free of oil so that you can
maintain a firm grip.
•
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.
•
Never immerse the equipment in water or
other liquids in order to clean it.
•
Use a brush to remove deposits from the
safety guards.
•
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the
motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean
cloth or blow it down with compressed air at
low pressure.
•
We recommend cleaning the equipment
immediately each time after use.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a damp
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these may
be aggressive to the plastic parts in the
equipment. Ensure that no water can get into
the interior of the equipment. The ingress of
water into an electric power tool increases the
risk of an electric shock.
8.2 Maintenance
8.2.1 Chainsaw mounting kit
Replacing the 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
damage this can cause to the cutter rail and
the chain. Point the tip of the cutter rail at a
smooth surface (a board or a cut tree face) and
allow the chainsaw to run. If you see a growing
oil stain on the smooth surface, 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, 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 of approx. 7.9 in. (20 cm).
Sharpening the chain
Working eff ectively with the chainsaw is only
possible if the chain is in good condition and
sharp. This also reduces the risk of kickback. The
chain can be re-sharpened by any dealer. Do not
attempt to sharpen the chain yourself unless you
have the necessary special tools and experience.
