WARNINg: Do not use any attachments or accessories not recom- mended by the manufacturer of this product. The use of attachments or accessories not recommended can result in serious personal injury. WARNINg: To avoid kickback, binding of the saw bar, and possible injury, never cut limbs that the pruner does not reach when supported by the shoulder strap. APPLICATIONS You may use this product for the purposes listed below: • Limbing • Pruning PREPARATION FOR CUTTINg See Figures 5 - 6. • Wear non-slip gloves for maximum grip and protection. . • Maintain a proper grip on the unit whenever the engine is running. Use your right hand to firmly grip the rear handle while your left hand has a firm grip on the front handle. . • Hold unit firmly with both hands. Always keep your left hand on the front handle and your right hand on the rear handle, so your body is to the left of the chain line. Never use a left-handed (cross-handed) grip, or any stance that places your body or arm across the chain line. . • Never stand directly under the limb you are cutting. . • Always wear shoulder strap for increased safety and to support the pruner. • Be certain the knob is fully tightened before operating equipment; check it periodically for tightness during use to avoid serious injury. BASIC CUTTINg PROCEDURE Follow the steps below to prevent damage to tree or shrub bark. Do not use a back-and-forth sawing motion. • Accelerate the engine to full throttle just before entering the cut by squeezing the throttle trigger. Keep the engine at full throttle the entire time you are cutting. • Make a shallow first cut (1/4 of limb diameter) on the underside of the limb close to the main limb or trunk. • Make a second cut from the top side of the limb outboard from the first cut. • Make a final cut close to trunk. fINAL CUT SECOND CUT fIRST CUT 1/4 DIAMETER LOAD Fig. 5 11 12 operation Fig. 7 Cutting Guide Fig. 6 .NOTE: For second and final cuts (from top of limb or branch), hold front cutting guide against the limb being cut. This will help steady the limb and make it easier to cut. Allow chain to cut for you; exert only light downward pressure. If you force the cut, damage to the bar, chain, or engine can result. n Release the trigger as soon as the cut is completed, allowing the engine to idle. If you run the pruner at full throttle without a cutting load, unnecessary wear or damage can occur to the chain, bar, and engine. Failure to follow proper cutting procedures will result in the bar and chain binding and becoming pinched or trapped in the limb. If this should happen: n Stop the engine. n Loosen the knob on the coupler. n Depress the button on the shaft; twist and pull the shafts to separate the pruner from the power head. n If the limb can be reached from the ground, lift the limb while holding the attachment. This should release the “pinch” and free the pruner. n If the pruner is still trapped, call a professional for assistance. Limbing and Pruning See Figures 7 - 8. This unit is designed for trimming small branches and limbs up to 6 in. in diameter. For best results, observe the following precautions. n Plan the cut carefully. Be aware of the direction in which the branch will fall. n Branches may fall in unexpected directions. Do not stand directly under the branch being cut. n The most typical cutting application is to position the unit at an angle of 60° or less, depending on the specific situation, as shown. As the angle of the pruner shaft to ground increases, the difficulty of making the first cut (from the underside of limb) increases. .n Remove long branches in several stages. .n Cut lower branches first to allow the top branches more room to fall. n Work slowly, keeping both hands on the saw with a firm grip. Maintain secure footing and balance. n Keep the tree between you and the chain while limbing. Cut from side of tree opposite branch you are cutting. .n Do not cut from a ladder; this is extremely dangerous. Leave this operation for professionals. .n Do not make the flush cut next to the main limb or trunk until you have cut off the limb further out to reduce the weight. Following proper cutting procedures will prevent stripping the bark from the main member. .n Do not use the pruner for felling or bucking. .n To prevent electrocution, do not operate within 50 ft. of overhead electrical lines. .n Keep bystanders at least 50 ft. away. Fig. 8 60° Maximum 13 OPERATION Fig. 12 Position for Startin g See Figure 9. Lay the pruner on the ground and ensure that no objects or obstructions are in the immediate vicinity. Make sure nothing can come in contact with the bar and chain. Fig. 10 Fig. 9 STARTING AND STOPPING See Figures 10 - 12. To start a cold engine: DO NOT squeeze the throttle trigger until the engine starts and runs. .n Lay the trimmer on a flat, bare surface. .n PRIME - Press the primer bulb 7 times. .n SET the start lever to the START position. .n PULL the rope until the engine starts. .n Allow the engine to ru...
