Important Safety Information
Kickback
Kickback occurs when the tip of the guide rail touches an
object or when the saw chain becomes jammed in the cut. If the
rail tip touches an object, this may throw the guide rail upwards
and in the direction of the operator. If the saw chain jams on the
upper edge of the guide rail, the rail may quickly recoil in the
direction of the operator.
Kickback can be prevented by holding the saw rmly with both
hands, ensuring that your thumbs and ngers clasp the handles
on the pole saw. Move your body and arms into a position in
which you can withstand the kickback force. Avoid an abnormal
body posture and do not saw above shoulder height.

Operation
Switch the unit off and remove the battery if the unit is left
unattended; before checking, cleaning or performing other work
on the unit; or if the unit starts vibrating excessively.
Before initial operation
Unpack the pole saw and accessories and check that no parts are
missing or damaged.
NOTE: The batteries (optional; depending on delivery scope) are
not fully charged on delivery. Prior to initial operation, charge the
batteries fully. See user manual of the battery charger.
Lubricating the chain
The unit may be operated with adequate chain lubricating oil only.
Inadequate lubrication will reduce the service life of the power
tool. Check the amount of oil on the oil level indicator.
Topping up the chain oil
Fill the oil tank only with an environmentally compatible quality
chain and bar lubricant (according to RAL-UZ48).
• Do not use waste oil. Renewed contact with waste oil can cause
skin cancer.
• Waste oil is environmentally harmful.
• Waste oil does not have the necessary lubricating properties and
is unsuitable for chain lubrication.
• An oil other than the one recommended may damage the rail, the
chain and the lubricating system.
• Ensure that dirt does not get into the oil tank.
• Avoid spilling oil. Always wipe up any spilled oil.

Operation
• Open the oil tank cover A (see Figure 1). Before opening, clean if
required.
• Carefully pour in the chain lubricating oil until it reaches the upper
mark on the oil level indicator B.
• Close the oil tank cover A.
• Check the chain oil level even during operation and top up with
chain oil if required.
Checking the chain lubrication
• Start the unit (see section “Switching on/off the power tool”.
• Hold running saw chain for some time approx. 15 cm above a
suitable surface. If there is adequate chain lubrication, the oil
which is ejected by the saw chain will form a light trail.
Chain tension
Before performing any work on the pole saw, remove the battery.
The teeth on the saw chain are very sharp! Wear protective gloves
when performing any work on the chain.
NOTE: Check and re-adjust the tension of a new chain after
working for a few minutes. Switch the motor off, remove the battery
and actuate the chain brake.
Checking the chain tension
The saw chain must not sag, but it should be possible to pull it 1/16”
to 1/8”away from the saw rail in the middle of the rail (see Figure 2).
Tensioning the saw chain
• Unscrew the hand wheel anti-clockwise until the saw rail can be
moved by hand 1 (see Figure 3).
• Turn the chain tensioning wheel on anticlockwise to tension the
chain 2.
• Turn the saw chain by hand to check that it runs perfectly. It must
slide freely in the rail.
• Tighten the hand wheel to attach the rail and the cover 3.
