GENERAL SAFETY RULES

4 — English
Kickback is a dangerous reaction that can lead to serious
injury. Kickback may occur when the moving chain con-
tacts an object at the upper portion of the tip of the guide
bar or when the wood closes in and pinches the chain
in the cut. Contact at the upper portion of the tip of the
guide bar can cause the chain to dig into the object and
stop the chain for an instant. The result is a lightning fast,
reverse reaction which kicks the guide bar up and back
toward the operator. If the chain is pinched along the top
of the guide bar, the guide bar can be driven rapidly back
toward the operator. Either of these reactions can cause
loss of tool control which can result in serious injury. Do
not rely exclusively upon the safety devices built into the
tool. As a pruner user, you should take several steps to
keep your cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
With a basic understanding of kickback, you can reduce
or eliminate the element of surprise. Sudden surprise
contributes to accidents.
Make sure that the area in which you are cutting is free
from obstructions. Do not let the nose of the guide bar
contact a log, branch, fence, or any other obstruction
while you are operating the unit.
Always cut with the engine running at full speed. Fully
squeeze the trigger and maintain a steady cutting speed.
Follow the sharpening and maintenance instructions for
the chain.
Use only the replacement guide bars and low kickback
chains specified for this unit.
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your applica-
tion. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at
the rate for which it is designed.
Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable foot-
ing on a solid surface enables better control of the tool
in unexpected situations.
Never let anyone use the tool who has not received
adequate instructions in its proper use. This applies to
rentals as well as privately owned units and also to the
power head it is attached to.
To protect yourself from electrocution, do not operate
within 50 ft. of overhead electrical lines.
To protect yourself from falling branches, do not stand
directly under the branch or limb being cut. This unit
should not be held at an angle over 60° from ground level.
Keep the handles dry, clean, and free of oil or fuel mixture.
Before you start the engine, make sure the chain is not
contacting any object.
Shut off the engine and make sure the cutting attachment
has stopped before setting the unit down.
DANGER! Serious injury or death from electrocution if
power lines are contacted. Never use near any electrical
source, wires, or powerlines.
Wear face shield and hard hat to protect against falling
debris. Always have a clear work area and retreat path.
Be aware of limb/branch location to avoid falling limbs
and debris. Keep bystanders 50 feet away when operat-
ing saw.
Store Idle Appliance Indoors — When not in use, product
should be stored indoors in a dry and high or locked up
place—out of the reach of children.
Save these instructions.Refer to them frequently and
use them to instruct others who may use this tool.
If you loan someone this tool, loan them these in-
structions also to prevent misuse of the product and
possible injury.

ASSEMBLY
OPERATION

8 — English
Be certain the knob is fully tightened before operating
equipment; check it periodically for tightness during use
to avoid serious injury.
BASIC CUTTING PROCEDURE
See Figures 5 - 6.
Follow these steps to prevent damage to tree or shrub bark.
Do not use a back-and-forth sawing motion.
Fully squeeze the trigger and allow the engine to come to
full speed just before entering the cut. Keep the engine
at full speed the entire time you are cutting.
Make a shallow first cut (1/4 of limb diameter) on the
underside of the limb close to the main limb or trunk.
Make a second cut from the top side of the limb outboard
from the first cut.
Make a final cut close to trunk.
�NOTE: For second and final cuts (from top of limb or
branch), hold front cutting guide against the limb being
cut. This will help steady the limb and make it easier to
cut. Allow chain to cut for you; exert only light downward
pressure. If you force the cut, damage to the bar, chain,
or engine can result.
Release the trigger as soon as the cut is completed, allow-
ing the engine to stop. If you run the pruner at full speed
without a cutting load, unnecessary wear or damage can
occur to the chain, bar, and engine.
Failure to follow proper cutting procedures will result in the
bar and chain binding and becoming pinched or trapped in
the limb. If this should happen:
Stop the engine.
Remove the spark plug wire.
Loosen the knob on the coupler.
Depress the button on the shaft; twist and pull the shafts
to separate the pruner from the power head.
If the limb can be reached from the ground, lift the limb
while holding the attachment. This should release the
“pinch” and free the pruner.
If the pruner is still trapped, call a professional for as-
sistance.
Check the chain tension frequently when operating the
unit. Refer to Chain Tension in the Maintenance section
of this manual.
LIMBING AND PRUNING
See Figures 7 - 8.
This unit is designed for trimming small branches and limbs
up to 6 in. in diameter. For best results, observe the follow-
ing precautions:
Plan the cut carefully. Be aware of the direction in which
the branch will fall.
Branches may fall in unexpected directions. Do not stand
directly under the branch being cut.
The most typical cutting application is to position the unit
at an angle of 60° or less, depending on the specific situa-
tion. As the angle of the pruner shaft to ground increases,
the difficulty of making the first cut (from the underside
of limb) increases.
Remove long branches in several stages.
Cut lower branches first to allow the top branches more
room to fall.
Work slowly, keeping both hands on the tool with a firm
grip. Maintain secure footing and balance.
Keep the tree between you and the chain while limbing.
Cut from side of tree opposite branch you are cutting.
Do not cut from a ladder, rooftop, or other unstable sup-
port; this is extremely dangerous. Hire a professional for
complex cutting situations.
Do not make the flush cut next to the main limb or trunk
until you have cut off the limb further out to reduce the
weight. Following proper cutting procedures will prevent
stripping the bark from the main member.
Do not use the pruner for felling or bucking.
To prevent electrocution, do not operate within 50 ft. of
overhead electrical lines.
Keep bystanders at least 50 ft. away.
POSITION FOR STARTING
See Figure 9.
Lay the pruner on the ground and ensure that no objects or
obstructions are in the immediate vicinity. Make sure noth-
ing can come in contact with the bar and chain, including
dirt on the ground.

POWER HEAD IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT
If the chain turns at idle, the idle speed screw needs adjusting
on your gas power head engine. Turn the idle speed screw
counterclockwise to reduce the idle RPM and stop the chain
movement. Refer to your power head Operator’s Manual for
more details. If the chain still moves at idle speed, contact
a service dealer for adjustment and discontinue use until
the repair is made.
MAINTENANCE

10 — English
WARNING:
The chain should never turn at idle. Turn the idle speed
screw “T” counterclockwise to reduce the idle RPM and
stop the chain, or contact a service dealer for adjustment
and discontinue use until the repair is made. Serious
personal injury can result from the chain turning at idle.
WARNING:
The chain will move around the guide bar when adjust-
ing the idle speed. Wear all protective clothing and keep
all bystanders, children, and pets at least 50 ft. away.
Make adjustments with the unit supported on a stable
surface so that the chain/guide bar does not contact the
ground or any object. Keep all parts of your body away
from the chain/guide bar and muffler. Failure to follow
these instructions could result in serious personal injury.
CHAIN TENSION
See Figures 16 - 17.
Stop the engine and remove the spark plug wire before
setting the chain tension. Make sure the guide bar nut
is loose to finger tight, turn the chain tensioning screw
clockwise to tension the chain. Refer to Replacing the
Bar and Chain for additional information.
A cold chain is correctly tensioned when there is no slack
on the underside of the guide bar and the chain is snug,
but can be turned by hand without binding.
The chain must be re-tensioned whenever the flats on
the drive links hang out of the bar groove.
During normal operation, the temperature of the chain will
increase. The drive links of a correctly tensioned warm
chain will hang approximately .050 in. (1.25 mm) out of
the bar groove.
NOTE: New chains tend to stretch; check chain tension
frequently and tension as required.
CAUTION:
A chain tensioned while warm may be too tight upon
cooling. Check the “cold tension” before next use.
CHAIN OILER
See Figure 18.
Use Premium Bar and Chain Lubricant. It is designed for
chains and chain oilers and is formulated to perform over
a wide temperature range with no dilution required.
Remove the cap and carefully pour approximately 8 oz.
of the bar and chain lubricant into the chain oiler tank.
Replace the cap and tighten securely.
Check and refill the chain oiler tank every hour or every
time the engine is fueled.
NOTE: Do not use dirty, used, or otherwise contaminated
lubricants. Damage may occur to the oil pump, bar, or
chain.
CHAIN MAINTENANCE
See Figure 19.
WARNING:
The chain is very sharp; always wear protective gloves
when performing maintenance to the chain.
Use only the replacement low kickback chain specified for
this unit.
For smooth and fast cutting, the chain needs to be main-
tained properly. The chain requires sharpening when the
wood chips are small and powdery, the chain must be
forced through the wood during cutting, or the chain cuts
to one side. During maintenance of the chain, consider the
following:
Improper filing angle of the side plate can increase the
risk of a severe kickback.
Depth gauge (or raker clearance) setting determines the
height the cutter enters the wood and the size of the wood
chip that is removed. Too much clearance increases the
potential for kickback. Too little clearance decreases the
size of the wood chip thus decreasing the chain’s cutting
ability.
If cutter teeth have hit hard objects such as nails and
stones, or have been abraded by mud or sand on the
wood, have service dealer sharpen chain.
HOW TO SHARPEN THE CUTTERS
See Figures 20 - 23.
WARNING:
Improper chain sharpening increases the potential of
kickback. Failure to replace or repair damaged chain can
cause serious injury.
Be careful to file all cutters to the specified angles and to
the same length, as fast cutting can be obtained only when
all cutters are uniform.
Tighten the chain tension enough that the chain does not
wobble. Do all of your filing at the mid-point of the bar.
Wear gloves for protection.
Use a 5/32 in. diameter round file and holder.
Keep the file level with the top plate of the tooth. Do not
let the file dip or rock.
Using light but firm pressure, stroke towards the front
corner of the tooth. Lift file away from the steel on each
return stroke.
MAINTENANCE

11 — English
Put a few firm strokes on every tooth. File all left hand
cutters in one direction. Then move to the other side and
file the right hand cutters in the opposite direction. Oc-
casionally remove filings from the file with a wire brush.
CAUTION:
Dull or improperly sharpened chain can cause excessive
engine speed during cutting, which may result in severe
engine damage.
ATTACHING THE STORAGE HANGER
See Figure 24.
There are two ways to hang the attachment for storage.
To use the hanger cap, push in the button and place the
hanger cap over the end of the attachment shaft. Slightly
rotate the cap from side to side until the button locks into
place.
The secondary hole in the attachment shaft can be used
for hanging purposes as well.
STORING THE ATTACHMENT
Clean the attachment thoroughly and lubricate before
storing.
Store the attachment indoors in a dry, well-ventilated
place that is inaccessible to children.
Keep away from corrosive agents such as garden chemi-
cals and de-icing salts.
Always place the scabbard on the cutting blade before
storing or when the attachment is not in use.

RÈGLES DE SÉCURITÉ GÉNÉRALES

4 — Français
Le rebond est une réaction dangereuse pouvant causer
des blessures graves. Le rebond se produit lorsque
la chaîne en rotation heurte un objet dans la partie
supérieure de l’extrémité du guide ou lorsque l’entaille
se referme et pince la chaîne dans le bois. Le contact
de la partie supérieure de l’extrémité du guide peut faire
plonger la chaîne dans le bois et la bloquer pendant un
instant. Il en résulte une réaction fulgurante, projetant le
guide vers le haut et l’arrière, en direction de l’utilisateur.
Le pincement de la chaîne sur le haut du guide peut
causer une projection violente de la lame en arrière,
en direction de l’utilisateur. Ces réactions peuvent faire
perdre le contrôle de l’outil et entraîner des blessures
graves. Ne pas compter exclusivement sur les dispositifs
de sécurité intégrés à l’outil. L’utilisateur doit prendre un
certain nombre de précautions pour éviter les accidents
et blessures.
Une compréhension élémentaire du rebond peut réduire
ou éliminer l’élément de surprise. Les surprises sont
favorables aux accidents.
S’assurer que l’endroit ou l’outil est utilisé est dépourvu
de tout obstacle. Ne pas laisser l’extrémité du guide entrer
en contact avec une bille, une branche, une palissade
ou tout autre obstacle risquant d’être heurté pendant le
travail.
Toujours couper avec le moteur tournant à sa vitesse
maximum. Serrer la gâchette à fond et maintenir une
vitesse de coupe constante.
Suivre les instructions d’affûtage et d’entretien fournies
par le fabricant de la chaîne.
Utiliser exclusivement les guides et chaînes à faible risque
de rebond spécifiées pour l’outil.
Ne pas forcer l’outil. Utiliser un outil approprié pour le
travail. Un outil approprié exécutera le travail mieux et de
façon moins dangereuse s’il fonctionne dans les limites
prévues.
Ne pas utiliser l’outil sur une échelle ou un support
instable. Une position stable sur une surface ferme permet
de mieux contrôler l’outil en cas de situation imprévue.
Ne jamais laisser quiconque n’ayant pas reçu des
instructions d’utilisation appropriées utiliser l’outil. Cette
règle s’applique aux outils de location aussi bien qu’à
ceux appartenant à des particuliers.
Pour éviter les risques d’électrocution, ne pas travailler à
moins de 15 m (50 pi) de lignes électriques.
Pour éviter les risques de blessures, ne pas se tenir
directement au-dessous des branches en train d’être
coupées. Cet outil ne doit pas être tenu à un angle de
plus de 60° par rapport au niveau du sol.
Garder les poignées sèches, propre et exemptes d’huile
ou de mélange de carburant.
Avant de lancer le moteur, s’assurer que la chaîne n’est
en contact avec aucun objet.
Arrêter le moteur s’assurer que l’accessoire de coupe est
immobilisé avant de poser l’outil.
DANGER! Un contact avec des lignes électriques
