Swivelling the drive head (Fig. 5)
Warning! Always remove the rechargeable bat-
tery before inspection and adjustment work.
The telescopic pruner is equipped with a swivelling drive
head. The drive head can be clicked into 4 different
positions within a 67.5° arc by means of a spring button.
Make sure that the drive head is clicked into the correct
position before connecting the telescopic pruner to the
power supply. Try to turn the drive head in both direc-
tions to verify this. The drive head should be engaged
in its position and should not rotate. Heed the following
instructions to swivel the drive head.
1. Press the round button (10) on the side of the swivel
safeguard. The button is spring-loaded so that resist-
ance can be felt when it is pressed.
2. Hold onto the motor housing of the drive head and turn
the drive head into one of the 4 positions.
3. Release the round button (10).
It should jump back to its closed position. If not, carefully
turn the drive head forwards and backwards until the
button jumps back to its closed position. The drive head
is now locked in its position and ready for use.
Trimming (Figs. 7, 8 and 9)
Safe work
• In order to ensure safe work, a maximum working
angle of 60° is prescribed.
• Never stand below the branch to be sawed.
• Exercise caution when sawing branches under tension
or splintering wood.
• Potential risk of injury from falling branches and flying
wood projectiles!
• If the machine is in operation, keep persons and ani-
mals away from the danger area.
• The machine is not protected against electric shock
when coming into contact with high-voltage lines.
Maintain a minimum clearance of 10 m from current-
carrying lines. Life-threatening danger from electric
shock!
• When working on an incline, always stand above or to
the side of the branch to be sawed.
• Hold the machine as close as possible to your body.
By doing so, you maximise your balance.
Sawing techniques
• When removing branches, hold the machine at an an-
gle ranging from a maximum 60° to horizontal in order
to avoid being struck by a falling branch.

cut. Applying light pressure, guide the saw through the
branch from top to bottom.

Cleaning, maintenance and storage

Always remove the rechargeable battery from the
pruner before working on the machine.
Your device has been designed operation over a long
period with little maintenance. Permanent satisfactory
operation depends on diligent care and regular cleaning
of the device.
Your charger does not require any maintenance apart
from regular cleaning.
Sharpening the saw chain
Effective work with the chainsaw is only possible if the
saw chain is in good condition and sharp. This also
reduces the danger of a kickback. The saw chain can
be resharpened by a specialty dealer. Do not attempt
to sharpen the saw chain yourself if you do not have a
suitable tool and the necessary experience.
After use and prior to storage
- Clean the ventilation slots regularly with a clean, dry
