- Only use this machine to cut grass. Do not let
the disc touch materials that can not cut as stones,
metals, hard wood, wire mesh, etc.
- Keep the blade sharp. A bad sharpened disc cause
a higher cutting force on the machine as well as
increased risk of rebound or projection materials.
- Keep the area to be cut clean with no traces of
chopped vegetables or other materials.
7.1.3. CUT WITH THE PRUNER
Always keep the body on the left side of the pole.
Keep the pole at a maximum angle of 60 ° from the
ground and maintain an appropriate safety distance
from the branch you are cutting.
60º max.
Keep a safe distance from the branch to be cut. Think
about where the branch you are cutting will fall and
make sure it is not located in that area. The safety
distance must be at least twice the length of the
branch to be cut.
8.1.3. CHAIN SHARPENING
The chainsaw chain is dull as cuts are made. If you
observe any of the following symptoms it is time to
sharpen the chain:
• More effort is needed to make the cut.
• The cutting path is not straight.
• Increase vibrations.
• When cutting, sawdust is produced instead of chips.
To sharpen the chain follow the instructions in section
7.1.2. "Sharpening the chain cutting teeth".
8.1.4. CUT WITH THE PRUNER
We recommend that you train with small branches
in an easy position to gain experience before
undertaking more complicated cuts.
Always follow the safety rules indicated in this manual.
Use this machine exclusively for cutting wood. It is
forbidden to cut any other type of material.
Do not use this machine to move objects.
While cutting, use the machine gently. Only lightly
press down while keeping the machine at full power.
The machine's own weight will be sufficient to make
the cut. If the chain is locked, do not attempt to pull
the machine while it is running. Stop the mower and
use a wedge to release the mower.
CUTTING A BRANCH OF A TREE
To cut a branch of a tree that
does not touch the ground
always start with a cut of ¼
of the diameter of the branch
from below (1) and then cut
the rest from above (2).
In this way you will facilitate the opening of the cut
and that the branch is broken by damaging the tree.
Cut the long branches into several pieces starting
from the outside of the branch (part furthest from the
center of the tree).
