WORKING TECHNIQUES

•Never cut through the swelling at the root of the branch as this will slow down healing and increase the risk of fungal attack!

•Use the stop at the base of the cutting head to provide support during cutting. This will help prevent the cutting attachment from ”jumping” on the branch.

•Make an initial cut on the underside of the branch before cutting through the branch. This will prevent tearing of the bark, which could lead to slow healing and cause permanent damage to the tree. The cut should not be deeper than 1/3 of the branch thickness to prevent jamming. Keep the chain running while you withdraw the cutting attachment from the branch to prevent it jamming.

•Use the harness to support the weight of the machine and make it easier to handle.

•Make sure you have a ﬁrm footing and that you can work without being hampered by branches, stones and trees.

WARNING! Never activate the throttle
