￭ Proper tension of the chain is extremely important to
maximize cutting performance and reduce the risk of
personal injury from chain breakage, derailment or
reactive forces:
– Never cut with a loose chain. If the chain becomes
loose while cutting, switch off the motor and remove
the battery from the pole pruner before tightening the
chain. Never attempt to adjust the chain while the
battery is inserted.
– Read and follow the chain tensioning instructions,
@ 14.4.
– Always make sure the chain sprocket cover is
tightened securely after tensioning the chain in order
to secure the bar. Never start the pole pruner with a
loose or missing chain sprocket cover.
– Check chain tension once more after tightening the
chain sprocket cover.
– Check chain tension periodically thereafter at
regular intervals (only after removing the battery).
￭ Using a pole pruner that is modified, damaged, improperly
adjusted or maintained, or not completely and securely
assembled can lead to a malfunction and increase the risk
of serious personal injury or death.
– Never operate a pole pruner that is modified,
damaged, improperly maintained or not completely
and securely assembled.
– Always check your pole pruner for proper condition
and operation before starting work, particularly the
retaining latch, Ergo-Lever, trigger switch and
cutting attachment.
– Ensure that the retaining latch, Ergo-Lever and
trigger switch move freely and spring back into place
when released. The trigger switch must not engage
until the retaining latch is unlocked.
– Never attempt to modify or override the controls or
safety devices in any way.
– If your pole pruner or any part is damaged or does
not function properly, take it to your authorized
STIHL servicing dealer. Do not use the pole pruner
until the problem has been corrected.
