c. After striking a foreign object: inspect the cutting part for damage and make repairs before restarting and operating the unit. d. If machine starts to vibrate abnormally (check immediately). e. Whenever you leave the unit. 35. Securing the extension cord. Bend the extension cord about 40 cm from the plug end. Push that bend through the oblong opening, then loop the bend under the cord retaining clips as shown. This will prevent the extension cord from detaching from the hedge trimmer plug. Kickback With a basic understanding of kickback, you will reduce or eliminate the element of surprise that may contribute to an accident. Kickback may occur when the moving saw chain at the nose of the guide bar touches an object, or when the wood closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut. In some cases, this may cause fast reverse action, kicking the unit up and back or down and back towards the operator. The operator can lose control of the device, and that could result in serous personal injury. Keep a firm grip on the pruner handles at all time! Assembling the Pruner (installing the saw chain) WARNING DANGER CHAIN HAS A VERY SHARP EDGE, HANDLE WITH CARE. ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES; OTHERWISE SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY MAY RESULT!

Loosen mounting nut and adjust the chain tension by turning the tensioner screw WARNING DANGER IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO MAINTAIN THE PROPER CHAIN TENSION. RAPID WEAR OF THE GUIDE BAR OR THE CHAIN COMING OFF EASILY CAN BE CAUSED BY IMPROPER TENSION. 2. Hold unit vertically, and tighten mounting nut 3. Move saw chain backwards on guide bar by hand. Saw chain should move freely on guide bar if it is in proper mesh with the sprocket. If saw chain is difficult to rotate or binds on guide bar, it is too tight. Re-adjust if necessary. WARNING – DANGER BE SURE UNIT IS UNPLUGGED BEFORE MAKING ANY ADJUSTMENTS. Lubricating the guide bar and chain 1. Power pruning mechanism is equipped with the automatic oiling system that can be adjusted in the field. The saw chain bar, and chain are lubricated when chain rotates. The pump is set at the factory to a minimum flow rate. 2. Remove oil fill cap and fill reservoir with a quality, low viscosity guide bar and saw chain oil. Tighten the cap securely. WARNING DANGER TO PREVENT PLASTIC DETERIORATION, DO NOT USE SYNTHETIC OR SILICONE BASED OIL. 3. After starting the motor, run the chain at medium speed and check the saw chain. Very little visible oil on the saw chain will provide sufficient lubrication. 4. The oil tank will provide about 40 min. of cutting time (when set to a minimum flow rate). Refill the oil tank as needed. 5. A temporary increase in oil flow is recommended when cutting hardwood or wood showing a large amount of sap. This will sp...
