Pruning (fig. I)
Before attempting to prune a tree, ensure there are no by-laws
or regulations that would prohibit or control the felling of the
tree.
Be aware of the direction a branch may fall. Consider all
u
conditions that may affect the direction of fall, including:
the length and weight of the branch to be cut
u
the intended direction of fall
u
any unusual heavy limb structure or decay
u
the presence of surrounding trees and obstacles,
u
including overhead lines, the intertwinement with other
branches and the speed and direction of the wind.
Tree branches are liable to swing towards the tree trunk. In
addition to the user, any bystander, building or object below
the branch is at risk of being struck by the branch.
(Original instructions)
Consider access to the tree limb.
u
Make sure the tool is running at full speed before making
u
a cut.
Hold the tool firmly in place to avoid possible bouncing or
u
sideways movement of the tool.
Guide the tool through the branch using light pressure.
u
When cutting heavy branches, where a partial cut may
splinter and damage the tree, proceed as follows:
Make the first cut 15 cm from the tree trunk on the
u
underside of the limb. Use the top of the guide bar (9)
to make this cut.
Cut one third through the diameter of the limb. Then cut
u
down from the top.

Cleaning, maintenance and storage

Your BLACK+DECKER corded/cordless appliance/tool has
been designed to operate over a long period of time with a
minimum of maintenance.
Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool
care and regular cleaning.
Warning! Before performing any maintenance on corded/
cordless power tools:
Switch off and unplug the appliance/tool.
u
Or switch off and remove the battery from the appliance/
u
tool if the appliance/tool has a separate battery pack.
Or run the battery down completely if it is integral and then
u
switch off.
Regularly clean the ventilation slots in your appliance/tool/
charger using a soft brush or dry cloth.
Regularly clean the motor housing using a damp cloth. Do not
use any abrasive or solvent-based cleaner.
After use and before storage
Regularly clean the ventilation slots with a clean, dry paint
u
brush.
To clean the appliance/tool/charger, use only mild soap
u
and a damp cloth. Never let any liquid get inside and
never immerse any part into liquid.
Remove debris using a hard brush.
u
Lubricate the chain with oil.
u
Checking and adjusting the chain tension (fig. E)
Check the saw chain tension. The tension is correct when
u
the saw chain (10) snaps back after being pulled away 3
mm from the saw chain bar with light force from the middle
finger and thumb. There should be no 'sag' between the
guide bar (9) and the saw chain (10) on the underside.
To adjust the tension:
Loosen the Locking nut (8).
u
Turn the screw (16) clockwise.
u
Warning! Do not over-tension the chain as this will lead to
excessive wear and will reduce the life of the bar and chain.
