•
The electric pruner is designed for
two-handed operation. Never work
with one hand or above shoulder
height.
•
Ensure you have a secure stance dur-
ing sawing. Do not work on a ladder,
in the tree or on unstable locations. Be
very cautious carrying out work on a
slope.
•
Basically the mains cable is dragged
behind the operator. The cable must
always lead away from the electric
pruner towards the rear.
•
Keep your working area tidy. Only
start work if your working area is free
from obstruction and you have planned
a safe path of escape when felling tim-
ber.
•
Place the claw stop securely with every
cut and do not begin with the sawing
before this.
•
Be extremely careful during sawing
small bushes and branches. The thin
branch thicket can snag in the saw
and whip in your direction or make
you unbalanced.
•
Do not cut wood that is lying on the
ground.
•
Pay attention to a possible spring-back
during the sawing of a branch which
is under stress, if the stress force of the
wood is suddenly released. Danger of
injury exists.
•
Check the safety status of the electric
pruner, in particular the chain bar,
chain brake and the chain, before use.
•
In the event that the cutting attach-
ment becomes jammed or stuck in the
branches, do not attempt to free the
equipment with the use of force. Switch
off the equipment immediately and re-
start it only after clearing the blockage.
There is a risk of injury!
