 Never service damaged battery packs. Service of
battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
Pole pruner safety warnings
 Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain. Do
not remove cut material nor hold material to be cut
when saw chain is moving. Make sure the tool is
switched off and the battery is removed when clearing
jammed material. A moment of inattention while
operating the pole pruner may result in serious personal
injury.
 Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces
(main handle 15, front handle 9 or extended gripping
area 12) only, because the saw chain may contact
hidden wiring. Saw chains contacting a "live" wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and
could give the operator an electric shock.
 Maintain a firm grip, with both hands on the pole
pruner and position your body and arm to allow you to
resist any kickback forces. Kickback forces can be
controlled by the operator, if proper precautions are
taken. Do not let go of the pole pruner.
 When cutting a branch be alert for kickback. When the
branch is broached it can bend down and jam the saw
chain.
 Carry the pole pruner switched off, always with both
hands and the saw chain with bar cover fitted, away
from you. Proper handling of the pole pruner will reduce
the likelihood of accidental contact with the moving saw
chain.
 Do not operate a pole pruner in a tree. Operation of a
pole pruner while climbing or situated in a tree may result
in personal injury.
 Always keep proper footing and operate the pruner
only, when standing on fixed, secure and ground level
surface. Slippery or unstable surfaces such as ladders
may cause a loss of balance or control of the pruner.
 Follow instructions for oiling, chain tensioning and
changing accessories. Improperly tensioned or
lubricated chain may either break or increase the chance
for kickback.
 Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
Greasy, oily handles are slippery causing loss of control.
 Cut wood only. Don't use pole pruner for purposes not
intended. For example: do not use pole pruner for
cutting plastic, masonry or non-wood building
materials. Use of the pole pruner for operations different
than intended could result in a hazardous situation.
 Causes and operator prevention of kickback:
– Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide bar
touches an object, or when the wood closes in and pinches
the saw chain in the cut.
– Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden reverse
reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back towards the
operator.
– Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar
F 016 L81 582 | (28.2.18)
may push the guide bar rapidly back towards the operator.
– Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control of
the pole pruner which could result in serious personal
injury. As a pole pruner user, you should take several steps
to keep your cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect
operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by
taking proper precautions as given below:
 When cutting a branch be alert for kickback. When the
branch is broached it can bend down and jam the saw
chain.
 Only use replacement saw chains specified by the
manufacturer. Incorrect replacement of saw chains may
cause chain breakage and/or kickback.
 If the bar is damaged and in need of replacement, please
consult your Bosch Service Center.
 Do not sharpen the saw chain on its own. Please obtain the
replacement saw chain (F 016 800 489).
 Never allow children, persons with physical, sensory or
mental limitations or a lack of experience and/or
knowledge and/or people unfamiliar with these
instructions to use the machine. Local regulations may
restrict the age of the operator.
 Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the machine.
 When not in use store the pole pruner out of reach of
children.
 Before operation, check the work area and remove all
possible hazards.
 Always wait until the machine has come to a complete
stop, and remove the battery before placing it down.
The saw chain can jam or kickback and lead to loss of
control over the garden tool.
 Switch off the pole pruner when changing the working
position.
 A cut branch can lead to personal injury by falling on you or
springing back from the ground. Cut longer branches in
sections. (see figure N)
 Reduce the cutting force before the branch is completely
cut off. You can get injured, when losing balance and
control of the pole pruner.
Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the
Battery
 Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting
battery pack. Inserting the battery pack into machines
that have the switch on can cause accidents.
 Use only Bosch battery packs intended specifically for
the machine. Use of any other battery packs may create a
risk of injury and fire.
 Do not open the battery. Danger of short-circuiting.
Protect the battery against heat, e. g., against
continuous intense sunlight, fire, water, and
moisture. Danger of explosion.
