13
60°max.
Adjusting the chain tension
The chain must not have too much clearance, but it
must be possible to lift the chain a few millimeters from
the guide rail.
Loosen the fixing screw (1).
Slightly lift the end of the chain guide
Check the cutting chain for ease of operation by
turning it manually.
Adjust the tension of the chain by means of the screw for adjusting the tension of the
chain (4) so that the chain can be lifted a few millimeters from the center of the guide rail.
Secure the safety screw (1).
Use of the pole pruner
Never use the tool at an angle of more than 60 °. The correct operation of the pruner is not
impaired at angles greater than 60 °, but the risk of injury increases due to sudden drops of
branches. Pay attention to the floor in front of you when using the appliance. This allows you
to avoid tripping over branches on the ground. Never use the saw without oil. Use a
biodegradable chain oil. The pruning machine uses a low rebound chain. In addition, special
attention has been paid to the construction of the device to prevent the smallest possible
rebounds given the technical conditions given. Nevertheless, a slight rebound can not be
ruled out by using the upper cutting blade. Expect a rebound when using this side of the blade
or when the top of the blade comes into contact with another branch. The device should
always be used with both hands. The thin branches can be cut at once. To prevent a branch
from splitting or bending, it is advisable to slice it end to end. When slitting longer branches,
the branch should be cut from the bottom. First
cut the branch from below at a point away from
where you want to saw the branch. The notch
must have a depth between one third and one
half the thickness of the branch. This prevents
the branch from breaking when you cut it from
the top a little further away from the trunk. To
finish, saw the stump by making a straight cut.
If you wish, you can seal the cut using a
suitable product.
Installation of the harness
The shoulder strap is equipped with an
emergency release mechanism. To detach the
machine from the shoulder strap in emergency
situations, follow the instructions described below.
WARNING
Check the emergency release mechanism BEFORE operating the machine.
Be sure to hold the machine when operating the emergency release mechanism.

engines with an air cooling system (JASO FC or ISOEGC).
Do not use BIA or TCW OIL (suitable for 2-stroke engines equipped with a water cooling
system).
SUGGESTED PROPORTIONS: GASOLINE 40: OIL1
Exhaust emissions are regulated by the basic technical characteristics of the engine and its
components (carburation, adjustment of spark plugs, control of exhaust opening and closing
times) in the absence of accessories or a catalyst during combustion.
- These motors are designed for use with unleaded gasoline.
- Always use gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 90RON.
- Using gasoline with a lower octane rating may cause an increase in engine
temperature, causing problems with the engine, including seizure.
- Using unleaded gasoline prevents unnecessary pollution in the interests of your
health and the protection of the environment.
- Using gasoline or oil of lesser quality can damage seal rings, ducts or fuel tank.
-Prepare the mixture
IMPORTANT
MIX THE MIXTURE CAREFULLY.
a. Measure the fuel and oil needed for the fuel mixture.
b. Pour a little gasoline into a clean container provided for this purpose.
c. Add all the oil before stirring the can.
d. Add remaining gasoline and shake the can for at least 1 minute. Certain oils mix with
difficulty because of the substances they contain. Sufficient agitation of the mixture is
essential to ensure proper operation over the life and power of the engine. If your fuel

15
mixture is not stirred sufficiently, the poor and inadequate mixture may increase the risk
of seizure.
e. Identify the can by locating it with a distinctive emblem in order to always know what is
there.
f. Indicate the substances contained and the proportions of the mixture.
-Filling the tank
a. Unscrew the tank cap. Place the tank cap in a clean, dust-free place.
b. Fill the tank to 80% of its capacity.
c. Screw the fuel cap back on. Clean the fuel tank cap and the area around after filling
the fuel tank. Eliminate overfill of fuel mixture by rubbing.
NOTE
When filling, avoid:
-OIL-FREE FUEL (PURE FUEL) - This can quickly cause serious damage to the
interior of the engine components.
-GASOHOL - may cause deformation of rubber or plastic parts and cause engine
lubrication to stop.
-OIL FOR 4-TIME ENGINES - causes clogging of the spark plug, clogs the exhaust
channel or leads to seizure.
Fuel mixtures stored for more than one month may, if used, clog the carburetor and cause the
engine to malfunction.
If the unit is to be stored for an extended period of time, the tank must be cleaned after being
emptied. Leave the engine running to remove the remaining fuel from the carburetor.
Observe local regulations when disposing of used containers.

FUEL
WARNING
Gasoline is highly flammable. Do not smoke and be careful to avoid sparks or open flames
near fuel. Turn the engine off and allow it to cool before refueling. Filling must be done
externally, ideally on the bare ground. Leave at least 3 meters from where you filled the tank
to start the engine.
The engine needs oil specially adapted for two-stroke engines with an air cooling system. Use
quality oil enriched with corrosion-inhibiting products explicitly provided for two-stroke engines
with an air cooling system (JASO FC or ISOEGC).
Do not use BIA or TCW OIL (suitable for 2-stroke engines equipped with a water cooling
system)
SUGGESTED PROPORTIONS: GASOLINE 40: OIL1
-Exhaust emissions are regulated by the basic technical characteristics of the engine and
its components (carburization, spark plug adjustment, exhaust opening and closing
control) in the absence of accessories or A catalyst during combustion
-These motors are designed to operate with unleaded gasoline.
-Always use petrol with a minimum octane rating of 90RON.
-Using gasoline with a lower octane rating may result in an increase in engine temperature,

causing problems with the engine, including seizure.
-Using unleaded gasoline prevents unnecessary pollution in the interests of your health
and the protection of the environment.
-Using gasoline or oil of lesser quality can damage seal rings, ducts or fuel tank.
HOW TO PREPARE YOUR OIL-FUEL MIXTURE
IMPORTANT
SHAKE CAREFULLY THE PREPARED MIXTURE
1. Measure the fuel and oil required for the fuel mixture
2. Pour a little gasoline into a clean container provided for this purpose.
3. Add all the oil before stirring the can.
4. Add remaining gasoline and shake the can for at least 1 minute. Certain oils mix only with
difficulty because of the substances they contain. Stirring the mixture sufficiently is
essential to ensure proper operation over the life and power of the engine. If your fuel
mixture is not stirred sufficiently, the poor and inadequate mixture may increase the risk
of seizure.
5. Identify the can by locating it with a distinctive emblem to always know what is in it
6. Indicate the substances contained and the proportions of the mixture.
FILLING THE DISCONNECT TANK
1. Unscrew the tank cap. Place the fuel cap in a clean, dust-free place.
2. Fill the tank to 80% of its capacity.
3. Screw the fuel cap back on. Clean the fuel tank cap and area around after filling the fuel
tank. Eliminate overfill of fuel mixture by rubbing.
WARNING
1. Fill the tank on the floor.
2. The engine must be started at a distance of at least 3 meters from where the fuel tank has
been filled.
3. Switch off the engine before adding fuel. Shake the mixture thoroughly before filling the
tank.
Warning: Gasoline is highly flammable. Therefore, it is imperative to take the following
precautions:
1) Store gasoline in tanks specially designed for this purpose.
2) Fill the fuel tank of your appliance outdoors and avoid smoking during work.
3) Fill the tank before starting the engine. Never open the fuel tank cap or fill fuel while the
engine is running or the engine is still hot.
Avoid spilling gasoline: When gasoline is spilled, it is important not to start the machine and
move it away from the place where the gasoline has spilled to avoid possible sources of fire.
Screw all caps and tank cover carefully
IN THE INTEREST OF YOUR ENGINE, AVOID:
1. OIL-FREE FUEL (PURE FUEL) - This can quickly cause serious damage to the interior of
the engine components.
2. GASOHOL - may cause deformation of rubber or plastic parts and cause engine lubrication
to stop.
3. OIL FOR 4-TIME ENGINES - causes clogging of the spark plug, clogs the exhaust channel
or leads to seizure.
4. Fuel mixtures stored for more than one month may, if used, clog the carburetor and cause
the engine to malfunction.
5. If the unit is to be stored for a long period of time, the tank must be cleaned after being
emptied. Leave the engine running to remove the remaining fuel from the carburetor.
6. Observe local regulations when disposing of used containers.
