Precautions for Saw procedure
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. In general, it is recommended to set the pruning saw at an angle of 60 ° to the road.
Keep both hands well with the device during the cutting process and pay you up to an equilibrium
position and a good level.
• Never try to use your tool with one hand. The loss of control of your tool can cause serious injury
or death. Never work on a ladder, a tree branch or other unstable surfaces.
• Never cut with the upper edge or the tip of the cutter bar.
• Make sure that the chain tension is always correctly adjusted.
• Practice for guiding the device slight pressure, but you do not overload the motor.
Clear the work area before cutting interfering branches and undergrowth. Then you create a re-
treat area, far from the spot where the cut branches fall on, and remove any obstacles there.
Keep the work area clean, remove the cut branches immediately. Pay attention to your point, wind
direction and the possible direction of fall of the branches. Be prepared that fallen branches can
strike back. Place all other tools and equipment at a safe distance from the branches to be cut, but
not in the retreat area.
Always observe the condition of the tree.
Look for rot and decay in the roots and branches. If they are rotten inside, they can break off and fall
down unexpectedly during cutting.
You could also attend by fractured and dead branches out, which is solved by the shake and fall on
you. For very thick or heavy branches you first make a small incision below the branch before you
work from the top down to avoid chipping.
Basic cutting technique
Heavy branches break off easily when sawing. They tear long strips of bark away from the trunk,
which damages the tree sustainably. The following section technique can significantly reduce this
risk:
• Saw the first branch about 10 cm from the trunk.
• Put in about 15 cm from the base of the top of a further section.
• Saw until the branch breaks. The risk of injury on the trunk is no.
• Finally, remove with a clean cut from the top of the trunk along the remaining.
• Thus, the damage to the tree are kept as low as possible, we recommend the interface additionally
to seal with grafting wax.
Hazards by reactive forces
Reactive forces occur during operation of the saw chain. The forces which are applied to the wood
are against the operator. They occur when the moving chain comes into contact with a fixed object
such as a branch or is pinched. These forces can lead to a loss of control and injury.
Understanding the origin of these forces can help you to avoid the scare and the loss of control.
This saw is designed to make the return effects are not as noticeable as with traditional chain saws.
