• Devices with defective switches must be repaired
immediately to avoid damage and injury.
• Danger! Never use the machine in the vicinity of
overhead high-voltage power lines.
5.4.3 Safety of personnel
• Never use the device while standing on a ladder.
• Do not lean too far forwards when using the device.
Always make sure you have a firm footing and keep
your balance at all times. Use the carrying strap in
the scope of delivery to distribute the weight evenly
across the body.
• Do not stand under the branches you wish to cut off
to avoid injury from fallen branches. Also watch out
for branches springing back to avoid injury. Work at
an angle of approx. 60°.
• Be aware that the device may kick back.
• Keep an eye not only on branches to be worked on,
but also on fallen material to avoid tripping.
• Cover the guide rail and chain with the cover during
transport and storage.
• Avoid starting up the device unintentionally.
• Store the device out of the reach of children. Only
persons familiar with the operating instructions and
the device may operate it.
• Check whether the set of blade and saw chain
stops turning when the engine is idling.
• Check the machine for loosened fastening ele-
ments and damaged parts (e.g. cracks in the set of
blade and saw chain).
• National regulations may restrict the use of the
pole-mounted pruner.
• It is necessary to perform daily inspections before
use and after dropping or other impacts to detect
significant damage or defects.
• Use non-slip foot protection and close-fitting cloth-
ing.
• Warning! Never use the machine if the user is tired,
ill or under the influence of alcohol or other drugs.
• Warning! Danger of injury for third parties. It is nec-
essary to keep it at a safe distance from the ma-
chine during work.
• Keep a firm footing and keep your balance during
operation. Use the carrying strap supplied.
• Keep the machine, the set of blade and saw chain
and the cutting set guard in good working order.
• It is necessary to rest regularly and change the
working positions.
• Remove branches in sections. Warning! Be careful
of dangerous working positions and the danger of
being hit by falling branches or by branches kicking
back when they have fallen to the floor.
5.4.4 Use and handling
• Never start the device before the guide bar, saw
chain and chain cover are correctly fitted.
• Do not cut wood that is lying on the ground or try
to cut roots that are sticking out of the ground.
In any case, make sure the saw chain does not
come into contact with the soil, otherwise the saw
chain will dull immediately.
• If you accidentally touch a solid object with the de-
vice, switch off the engine immediately and inspect
the device for any damage.
• Take a break of at least one hour after 30 minutes
of work. Change working position regularly.
• If the pole-mounted pruner is shut down for main-
tenance, inspection or storage, turn off the engine,
disconnect the spark plug connector from the
spark plug and ensure that all rotating parts have
stopped. Allow the machine to cool down before
checking, adjusting, etc.
• Maintain the device carefully. Check for misalign-
ment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the device's
operation. Have damaged parts repaired before
using the device. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained devices.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
• Have the device serviced by qualified personnel.
Only use manufacturer's recommended original
spare parts. Other cutting tools not recommend-
ed by the manufacturer may damage the device or
cause injury. Recommended cutting tools:
Guide rail type AL10-39-507P/Kangxin
Saw chain type 3/8.050-39/Kangxin
5.4.4.1 Precautionary measures against kick-
back
m Attention: Kick-back!
• Watch out for kick-back when working with the de-
vice. There is a danger of injury. Avoid kick-backs
through caution and correct sawing technique.
Touching with the rail tip can sometimes lead to an
unexpected backward reaction, whereby the guide
rail whips up and in the direction of the operator.
Sawing in the marked area of the guide bar should be
avoided to prevent kick-back.
Kick-back can arise if the tip of the guide rail touch-
es an object or if the wood bends and the saw chain
jams in the cut.
If the saw chain jams on the top edge of the guide
rail, the rail can jerk back violently in the direction of
the operator.
Each of these reactions can lead to you losing control
of the saw and possibly suffering a serious injury.
