6.4.2 Work techniques
6.4.2.a Delimbing a tree
DANGER
Make sure there is nothing or nobody in the area
where the branches will fall.
1. Stand opposite the branch you want to cut.
2. Start cutting lower branches
followed by the higher ones.
3. Make first cut from the bottom towards the
top (Fig. 17.A). Complete delimbing by cutting
from top to bottom, as shown in (Fig. 17.B).
6.4.2.b Limbing tree branches
Limbing means removing the branches from a
felled tree.
DANGER
Be careful of where the branches are lying on the
ground, the risk of them being under tension, the
direction the branch may go during cutting and the
risk of the tree being unstable after the branch has
been cut.
When limbing, it is necessary to leave the lower,
larger branches to support the trunk on the ground.
Remove the small branches with a single cut (Fig.
18.A).
It is recommended to cut the tensioned branches
working from the bottom upwards to prevent the
chainsaw from bending (Fig. 18.B).

6.5 ADVICE FOR OPERATION

ATTENTION
Stop the machine (par. 6.6) when moving between
work areas.
If the machine should get stuck during pruning
high up, the operator must:
1. stop the machine immediately;
2. pull the pruner out from the cut, lifting the
branch where necessary;
3. if necessary, use a handsaw or second
chainsaw to free the trapped pruner, cutting at
a minimum distance of 30 cm from the trapped
pruner. Cutting operations to free the pruner
must always be performed towards the end of
the branch, (i.e. between the trapped pruner
and the end of the branch and not between
the trunk and the trapped pruner). This will
prevent the pruner from being dragged by
the part of the branch that is cut away, which
would complicate the situation even further.

6.6 STOP

To stop the machine release the throttle trigger
lever (Fig. 12.A).
ATTENTION
After releasing the throttle trigger lever it takes a
few seconds for the toothed chain to stop.
ATTENTION
Always stop the machine when moving between
work areas.
DANGER
Do not keep your finger on the throttle lock button
when moving the machine to avoid accidentally
enabling the machine.

6.7 AFTER USE

1. Move the battery backpack selector (Fig. 4.B)
to "OFF".
2. Disconnect the machine from the battery
backpack (Fig. 13).
3. Remove the battery backpack.
4. Remove the battery from its housing and
recharge it (para. 7.2.2).
5. Mount the protection bar cover (Fig. 1.K)
6. Allow the motor to cool before storing in an
enclosed space;
7. Loosen the rod fastening nut to reduce chain
tension.
8. Carefully remove any dust and debris and
remove all traces of sawdust or oil deposits
from the chain (par. 7.4.2);
9. Check there are no loose or damaged
components. If
damaged components and tighten any screws
and loose bolts.
DANGER
Always remove the battery (par. 7.2.2) and fit the
blade guard whenever the machine is unused or
left unattended.
