The specifi ed vibration value was established in
accordance with a standardized testing method. It
may change according to how the electric equip-
ment is used and may exceed the specifi ed value
in exceptional circumstances.
The specifi ed vibration value can be used to
compare the equipment with other electric power
tools.
The specifi ed vibration value can be used for initi-
al assessment of a harmful eff ect.
Keep the noise emissions and vibrations to a
minimum.
•
Only use appliances which are in perfect wor-
king order.
•
Service and clean the appliance regularly.
•
Adapt your working style to suit the appliance.
•
Do not overload the appliance.
•
Have the appliance serviced whenever ne-
cessary.
•
Switch the appliance off when it is not in use.
•
Wear protective gloves.
5. Before starting the equipment
Caution! Do not fi t the battery until the equipment
has been fully assembled and all the settings
have been actuated. Always wear protective
gloves when working on the equipment to protect
yourself against injury. Carefully unpack all parts
and check that they are complete (Fig. 1).
5.1 General information on assembly
a) Fig. 2-3: Push the tube (7) onto the handle
housing (2a) as far as the bead (7a) and
screw it tight with the assembly nut (6).
b) Fig. 4: Hook the carabiner (A) of the shoulder
strap (8) into the strap attachment (B).
c) Fig. 4a: The additional handle consists of the
handle (N), the hexagon screw (P) and the
lock (F). It is fi tted to the handle attachment
(U) as illustrated. Push the hexagon screw (P)
into the handle (N) and screw it tight to the
lock (F).
5.2 Fitting the chain saw mounting kit (for
use as a pole-operated pruner)
5.2.a Assembly of the cutter rail and the saw
chain
•
Undo the fixing screw (C) of the chain wheel
cover (Fig. 5).
•
Take off the chain wheel cover.
•
Lay the chain as shown in the groove which
runs around the cutter rail (Fig. 6/Item E).
•
Insert the cutter rail and chain as shown in
the mounting in the chainsaw (Fig. 7). At the
same time guide the chain around the chain
wheel (Fig. 7/Item K).
•
Attach the chain wheel cover (Fig. 8/Item C)
and fasten it hand-tight with the fastening
screw.
Important! Do not fully tighten the fastening screw
until after you have adjusted the chain tension
(see section 5.2.b).
5.2.b Tensioning the saw chain
Caution! Always remove the battery from the
device before inspection and adjustment. Always
wear protective gloves when working on the
chainsaw to protect yourself against injury.
•
Undo the fixing screw (C) of the chain wheel
cover a few turns (Fig. 5).
•
Adjust the chain tension with the chain tensi-
oning screw (Fig. 9/Item D). Turning the screw
clockwise increases the chain tension, tur-
ning it counter-clockwise decreases the chain
tension. The saw chain is correctly tensioned
if it can be lifted approx. 2 mm in the middle of
the cutter rail (Fig. 10).
•
Secure the fixing screw (C) of the chain wheel
cover (Fig. 8).
Notice! All the chain links must lie properly in the
guide groove of the cutter bar.
Notes on tensioning the chain:
The saw chain must be properly tensioned to
ensure safe operation. You can tell that the chain
tension is perfect if the saw chain can be lifted by
around 2 mm in the middle of the cutter rail. As
the saw chain heats up during cutting and thus
changes in length, check the chain tension no
less than every 10 minutes and adjust it again
as required. This applies in particular to new saw
chains. When you have fi nished working slacken
the chain again, as the chain will shorten when it
cools down. This will prevent the chain from being
damaged.
