Warning: The vibration emission

value may differ during actual use

of the power tool from the stated

value depending on the manner in

which the power tool is used.

Safety precautions aimed at pro-

tecting the user should be based on

estimated exposure under actual

usage conditions (all parts of the

operating cycle are to be consid-

ered, including, for example, times

during which the power tool is

turned off and times when the tool

is turned on but is running idle).

General Safety Directions for

Power Tools

Before you do any work with the

electric pruner, make yourself famil-

iar with all operating parts. Practise

using the saw (sawing logs on a

sawhorse) and get an experienced

user or a specialist to explain to

you the function of the saw, the

way of working, the techniques of

sawing and the personal protection

equipment.

RESIDUAL RISKS

Even if properly operating and handling this

electric tool, some residual risks will remain.

Due to its construction and build, this elec-

tric tool may present the following hazards:

a) Cuts

b) Ear damage if working without ear pro-

tection.

c) Damage to your health caused by

swinging your hands and arms when

operating the appliance for longer pe-

riods of time or if the unit is not held or

maintained properly.

WARNING! Read all safety di-

rections and instructions. Omis-

sions in the compliance with safety

directions and instructions can cause

electrical shock, re and/or severe

injuries.

Retain all safety directions and in-

structions for future use.

The term „power tool“ in the warnings re-

fers to your mains-operated (corded) power

tool or battery-operated (cordless) power

tool.

Work area safety

• Keep work area clean and well

lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite acci-

dents.

• Do not operate power tools in

explosive atmospheres, such as

in the presence of ammable

Iiquids, gases or dust. Power tools

create sparks which may ignite the dust

or fumes.

• Keep children and bystanders

away while operating a power

tool. Distractions can cause you to lose

control.

GB

9

Electrical safety

• Power tool plugs must match

the outlet. Never modify the

plug in any way. Do not use

any adapter plugs with earthed

(grounded) power tools. Unmod-

ied plugs and matching outlets will

reduce risk of electric shock

• Avoid body contact with

earthed or grounded surfaces,

such as pipes, radiators, rang-

es and refrigerators. There is an

increased risk of electric shock if your

body is earthed or grounded.

• Do not expose power tools to

rain or wet conditions. Water

entering a power tool will increase the

risk of electric shock.

• Do not abuse the cord. Never

use the cord for carrying, pulling

or unplugging the power tool.

Keep cord away from heat, oil,

sharp edges or moving parts.

Damaged or entangled cords increase

the risk of electric shock.

• When operating a power tool

outdoors, use an extension cord

suitable for outdoor use. Use of a

cord suitable for outdoor use reduces

the risk of electric shock.

• If operating a power tool in a

damp location is unavoidable,

use a residual current device

(RCD) protected supply. Use of an

RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

• Connect the appliance to a power

socket with a residual current circuit

breaker of rated residual current no

more than 30 mA.

• If the replacement of the supply cord is

necessary, this has to be done by the

manufacturer or his agent in order to

avoid a safety hazard.

Personal safety

• Stay alert, watch what you are

doing and use common sense

when operating a power tool.

Do not use a power tool while

you are tired or under the inu-

ence of drugs, alcohol or medi-

cation. A moment of inattention while

operating power tools may result in

serious personal injury.

• Use personal protective equip-

ment. Always wear eye pro-

tection. Protective equipment such

as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,

hard hat, or hearing protection used

for appropriate conditions will reduce

personal injuries.

• Prevent unintentional start-

ing. Ensure the switch is in the

off-position before connecting

to power source and/or battery

pack, picking up or carrying the

tool. Carrying power tools with your

nger on the switch or energising pow-

er tools that have the switch on invites

accidents.

• Remove any adjusting key or

wrench before turning the pow-

er tool on. A wrench or a key left at-

tached to a rotating part of the power

tool may result in personal injury.

• Do not overreach. Keep proper

footing and balance at all times.

This enables better control of the pow-

er tool in unexpected situations.

• Dress properly. Do not wear

loose clothing or jewellery.

Keep your hair, clothing and

gloves away from moving

parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long

hair can be caught in moving parts.

• If devices are provided for the

connection of dust extraction

GB

10

and collection facilities, ensure

these are connected and prop-

erly used. Use of dust collection can

reduce dust-related hazards.

Power tool use and care

• Do not force the power tool. Use

the correct power tool for your

application. The correct power tool

will do the job better and safer at the

rate for which it was designed.

• Do not use the power tool if the

switch does not turn it on and

off. Any power tool that cannot be

controlled with the switch is dangerous

and must be repaired.

• Disconnect the plug from the

power source and/or the bat-

tery pack from the power tool

before making any adjust

-ments, changing accessories, or

storing power tools. Such preven-

tive safety measures reduce the risk of

starting the power tool accidentaIly.

• Store idle power tools out of the

reach of children and do not al-

low persons unfamiliar with the

power tool or these instructions

to operate the power tool. Power

tools are dangerous in the hands of

untrained users.

• Maintain power tools. Check

for misalignment or binding

of moving parts, breakage of

parts and any other condition

that may affect the power tool’s

operation. If damaged, have

the power tool repaired before

use. Many accidents are caused by

poorly maintained power tools.

• Keep cutting tools sharp and

clean. Properly maintained cutting

tools with sharp cutting edges are less

Iikely to bind and are easier to control.

• Use the power tool, accessories

and tool bits etc. in accordance

with these instructions, taking

into account the working con-

ditions and the work to be per-

formed. Use of the power tool for op-

erations different from those intended

could result in a hazardous situation.

• Carefully inspect the area to be cut

and remove all wires or other foreign

bodies.

Service

• Have your power tool serviced

by a qualied repair person us-

ing only identical replacement

parts. This will ensure that the safety

of the power tool is maintained.

Chain saw safety warnings

• Keep all parts of the body

away from the saw chain when

the chain saw is operating. Be-

fore you start the chain saw,

make sure the saw chain is not

contacting anything. A moment of

inattention while operating chain saws

may cause entanglement of your cloth-

ing or body with the saw chain.

• Always hold the chain saw with

your right hand on the rear

handle and your left hand on

the front handle. Holding the chain

saw with a reversed hand congura-

tion increases the risk of personal inju-

ry and should never be done.

• Wear safety glasses and ear

protection. Other protective

equipment for the head, hands,

legs and feet is compulsory. Ad-

equate protective clothing will reduce

GB

11

personal injury by ying debris or acci-

dentaI contact with the saw chain.

• Do not operate a chain saw in a

tree. Operation of a chain saw while

up in a tree may result in personal in

jury.

• Always keep proper footing

and operate the chain saw only

when standing on xed, secure

and level surface. Slippery or un-

stable surfaces such as ladders may

cause a loss of balance or control of

the chain saw.

• When cutting a branch that

is under tension be alert for

spring back. When the tension in

the wood bres is released the spring

loaded Iimb may strike the operator

and/or throw the chain saw out of

control.

• Use extreme caution when cut-

ting brush and saplings. The slen-

der material may catch the saw chain

and be whipped toward you or pull

you off balance.

• Carry the chain saw by the

front handle with the chain saw

switched off and away from

your body. When transporting

or storing the chain saw always

t the guide bar cover. Proper

handling of the chain saw will reduce

the Iikelihood of accidentaI contact

with the moving saw chain.

• Follow instructions for lubri-

cating, chain tensioning and

changing accessories. Improperly

tensioned or lubricated chain may

either break or increase the chance for

kickback.

• Keep handles dry, clean, and

free from oil and grease. Greasy,

oily handles are slippery causing loss

of control.

• Cut wood only. Do not use chain

saw for purposes not intended.

For example: do not use chain

saw for cutting plastic, masonry

or non-wood building materials.

Use of the chain saw for operations

different than intended could result in a

hazardous situation

• Hold the power tool only on

the insulated handle surfaces,

as the saw chain can come into

contact with concealed power

lines or the mains cable to the

equipment. Contact between the

saw chain and a live wire can make

metal parts of the equipment live and

cause an electric shock.

Causes and operator preven-

tion of kickback

Beware of kickback! Be careful of

kickback of the machine during

work. There is danger of injury

here. You can avoid kickbacks by

exercising caution and using a cor-

rect sawing technique.

b

a

Bild 1

• Kickback may occur when the nose or

tip of the guide bar touches an object,

or when the wood closes in and pinch-

es the saw chain in the cut

(cf. g. b).

• Tip contact in some cases may cause

a sudden reverse reaction, kicking the

guide bar up and back towards the

GB

12

operator (cf. g. a).

• Pinching the saw chain along the top

of the guide bar may push the guide

bar rapidly back towards the operator.

• Either of these reactions may cause

you to lose control of the saw which

could result in serious personal injury.

Do not rely exclusively upon the safety

devices built into your saw. As a chain

saw user, you should take several steps

to keep your cutting jobs free from ac-

cident or injury.

Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/

or incorrect operating procedures or condi-

tions and can be avoided by taking proper

precautions as given below:

• Maintain a rm grip, with

thumbs and ngers encircling

the chain saw handles, with

both hands on the saw and po-

sition your body and arm to al-

low you to resist kickback forc-

es. Kickback forces can be controlled

by the operator, if proper precautions

are taken. Do not let go of the chain

saw.

• Do not overreach and do not cut

above shoulder height. This helps

prevent unintended tip contact and en-

ables better control of the chain saw in

unexpected situations.

• Only use replacement bars and

chains specied by the manu-

facturer. Incorrect replacement bars

and chains may cause chain breakage

and/or kickback.

• Follow the manufacturer´s

sharpening and maintenance

instructions for the saw chain.

Decreasing the depth gauge height

can lead to increased kickback.

• Do not saw with the point of the

blade (cf. g. b) or above shoul-

der height. Do not lean over too far

during the sawing operation.

• Ensure that there are no objects

lying around on the ground that

you can trip over.

Further safety directions

• This appliance is not intended for use

by persons (including children) with

reduced physical, sensory or mental

capabilities, or lack of experience and

knowledge, unless they have been giv-

en supervision or instruction concerning

use of the appliance by a person re-

sponsible for their safety.

• Children should be supervised to ensure

that they do not play with the appli-

ance.

• Damaged cables, coupling and plugs

or connecting leads, not corresponding

to the specications, must be not be em-

ployed. Remove the plug immediately

from the plug socket in case of damage

or cutting through of the mains cable.

• Keep the equipment, cutting attachments

and protective blade cover in good con-

dition in order to prevent injury.

• Ensure during any location change that

the saw chain is secured with the chain

brake and the chainsaw is switched off

and the nger does not contact the On/

Off switch. Carry the electric pruner

with the chain and chain bar pointing

to the rear. Attach the chain guard

for transporting the electric pruner. If

dropped, check the equipment for sig-

nicant damage or defects.

• Never start the electric pruner before

the chain bar, saw chain and sprocket

chain wheel covering are correctly as-

sembled.

GB

13

• The electric pruner is designed for

two-handed operation. Never work

with one hand or above shoulder

height.

• Ensure you have a secure stance dur-

ing sawing. Do not work on a ladder,

in the tree or on unstable locations. Be

very cautious carrying out work on a

slope.

• Basically the mains cable is dragged

behind the operator. The cable must

always lead away from the electric

pruner towards the rear.

• Keep your working area tidy. Only

start work if your working area is free

from obstruction and you have planned

a safe path of escape when felling tim-

ber.

• Place the claw stop securely with every

cut and do not begin with the sawing

before this.

• Be extremely careful during sawing

small bushes and branches. The thin

branch thicket can snag in the saw

and whip in your direction or make

you unbalanced.

• Do not cut wood that is lying on the

ground.

• Pay attention to a possible spring-back

during the sawing of a branch which

is under stress, if the stress force of the

wood is suddenly released. Danger of

injury exists.

• Check the safety status of the electric

pruner, in particular the chain bar,

chain brake and the chain, before use.

• In the event that the cutting attach-

ment becomes jammed or stuck in the

branches, do not attempt to free the

equipment with the use of force. Switch

off the equipment immediately and re-

start it only after clearing the blockage.

There is a risk of injury!

Fitting

• Pull out the power plug before doing

any work on the electric pruner itself

-– injury hazard!

• Alwayas wear cut-protection gloves

• Undertake only work with which you

are condent.

• In case of uncertainty, contact a spe-

cialist or contact our service directly.

Before using the electric pruner, you

must:

- assebling the round handle

- attaching and setting the shoulder strap

- tting the blade

- tting the saw chain

- tensioning the saw chain

Attaching/setting the

shoulder Strap

1. Attach the carabiner hook of the

shoulder belt (14) to the carrying

eye (15) on the telescoping rod

of the device.

2. Set the belt length in a way that

the carrying eye (15) is at hip

height (see small picture).

3. You can also adjust the height of

the carrying eye (15) on the tel-

escoping rod after loosening the

hex socket head screw (15a).

Installing the sawing chain

and blade

Always disconnect the plug from

the mains socket before working.

Danger of electric shock.

1. Spread out the sawing chain (1)

in a loop in a way that the an-

gled cutting edges of the chain

links are aligned clockwise.

2. Place the sawing chain (1) into

the blade groove.

3. To install, hold the blade (2)

tilted at an angle of approx.

45degrees upward, and guide

the sawing chain (1) around the

chain wheel (23).

4. Place the blade (2) with the

longitudinal milling above the

centre blade guide (21).

5. To facilitate assembly, position

7. Tighten the blade attachment

screw (4) with light hand force

only because the sawing chain

(1) must still be tightened.

Ensure that chain tensioning pin

(26) is positioned in hole (25) on

the blade (2). The pin must be com-

pletely inserted into the hole.

Tensioning the saw chain

Always disconnect the plug from

the mains socket before working.

Danger of electric shock.

The tension of saw chain (1) is important

both for your safety and for the function of

the electric pruner. A correctly tensioned

saw chain will increase the lifetime of your

equipment.

• Saw chain (1) is correctly tensioned

if it can be pulled around blade 2 by

hand (wearing gloves) without sag-

ging.

• When the saw chain is tensioned with

9 N (approx. 1 kg), the gap between

the saw chain and the guide rail may

not be more than 2 mm.

Where saw chain (1) has been newly

tensioned, readjust the chain tension

after a short period in operation.

Check the chain tension before

each use of the electric pruner.

Chain lubrication

Always switch off the device

and allow the motor to cool

before lling with chain oil.

There is a risk of re if chain

oil overows.

Blade ( 2) and saw chain ( 1)

must always be oiled. Non-obser-

vance of this will result in increased

wear on the blade and saw chain.

A full tank will last for approx.

10minutes of continuous operation.

Check the oil level in good time.

The electric pruner is equipped with an oil

automatic system. As soon as the motor is

speeded up, the oil also ows faster to the

chain bar (

2). Before starting work,

check the oil level in the oil automation sys-

tem (see “Operation startup”).

Filling up with chain oil:

• Check the oil ll level in the oil level

inspection window (27) and regularly

top up with chain oil.

• Use Grizzly bio-oil; this product con-

tains additives that reduce wear and

tear and does not damage the pump

system. bio-oil is available from our

Service-Center (see P. 23 for the ad-

dress).

• If you have no Grizzly bio-oil availa-

ble, use chain lubrication oil with low

adhesive additive content.

1. Unscrew the oil ll cap (28) and ll up

with chain oil.

2. Wipe off any spilled chain oil and

close the cap again.

Note that the saw can re-oil.

Operation startup

Observe the country-specic and

municipal regulations.

Do not work with the electric pruner

during general ordinary or pre-

scribed quiet periods.

Before starting, check

• Check the tension of saw chain

(

1).

• Check the chain oil level.

• Check all nuts and screws are sitting

rmly.

• Only remove blade cover (

18) at

the last minute.

• Set the working length of the telescopic

arm before switching on the equip-

ment.

• Check the shoulder belt (

14) for

comfortable positioning which facili-

tates holding the device.

• Ensure that you are wearing protective

clothing.

• Check that you are standing safely.

• Check your working surroundings.

Switching On and Off

1. Put on the shoulder belt (

14) (see “Attaching/Setting the

Shoulder Belt”).

2. Connect the power cable (12)

with the extension cable.

3. Make a loop in the end of the

extension cable and suspend this

in the cable strain relief element

(11) on the handle (9).

4. Connect the equipment to a pow-

er supply with the supply voltage

specied on the rating plate.

5. Hold the equipment rmly in a

relaxed and safe manner (see

).

6. Operate starting lock (13) and

switch on the pruning saw at

on/off switch (10).

For safety reasons, a lockable

continuous operation setting is

not possible.

7. The equipment will switch off

again when you release on/off

switch (10).

Checking the oil automation

Before starting work, check the oil level in

the oil automation system

1. Switch the device on and hold it above

clear ground. The device should not

touch the ground.

2. If a trace of oil appears, the device is

working awlessly.

3. If no trace of oil appears, clean the oil

outlet channel (

22) or have the de-

vice repaired by our customer service

department.

4. To clean, wipe the residues from the oil

outlet channel (

22) using a brush

or a rag.

Adjusting the Telescopic

Handle

The telescopic handle can be innitely ad-

justed using quick release (17).

1. Push the lever (17a) forward

as shown in the illustration then

push and pull to adjust the han-

dle length.

2. Pull back the lever (17a) and so

x the desired working length of

the telescopic handle.

3. If the lever (17a) comes loose,

tighten the Allen screw (17b)

using the Allen key (20).

Adjusting the handle

The incline angle of the handle (9) can be

adjusted continuously.

1. Loosen pivotal centre (8) and

and xing the adjustable handle

(9) on position.

2. Replace the pivotal centre (8) to

xation.

Transport

• Put on blade cover ( 18).

• Ensure that you do not switch on the

equipment when carrying it.

Sawing Off Small Branches

Set your saw cut of smaller branches (Ø

0-8cm) from top to bottom, as illustrated.

Be aware of early breaking of the branch

if you have underestimated the size and

weight.

Be completely aware of the falling cut

material

Sawing Off Larger Branches

For controlled sawing of larger branches

(Ø 8-25cm), rst select a relief cut (see

cutting a).

This is made from below.

Saw a notch in the lower third of the

branch.

The actual length cut (see cutting b) is

again made from the top, as far as possi-

ble in line with the rst cut so that the two

cuts meet.

Sawing Off Parts

For large/long branches, sawing off in

parts is recommended (see cutting a, b, c).

This is the only way to safely ensure the

point of impact of the cut material.

Clear away from the area in which you

are standing any parts that have already

been cut and are lying on the ground.

Sawing techniques

Be thoroughly aware of the danger of rebounding branches.

Working Safely

• Keep the equipment, cutting attach-

ments and protective blade cover in

good condition in order to prevent inju-

ry.

• If dropped, check the equipment for

signicant damage or defects.

• Observe the specied working angle

60°±10°, in order to guarantee safe

working.

• Do not use the electric pruner when

standing on a ladder or in an unsafe

position.

• Do not be tempted to make unconsid-

ered cuts. Doing so may endanger

both yourself and others.

• Children must be supervised to ensure

that they do not play with the equip-

ment.

• Change your working position regu-

larly. Long use of the equipment can

result in vibration-related circulatory

disorders in the hands. However, the

length of use can be extended by us-

ing suitable gloves or taking regular

breaks. Note that a personal tendency

for poor circulation, low outdoor tem-

peratures, or high gripping forces dur-

ing work will reduce the length of use.

Cleaning/Maintenance/

Storage

Basically, carry out mainte-

nance and cleaning works

with switched-off motor and

power plug removed. Danger

of injury!

Leave any maintenance and

servicing work not covered

by this manual to our Ser-

vice-Center. Use only original

spare parts.

Cleaning

Do not use cleaning agents or sol-

vents. You may otherwise irrepara-

bly damage the appliance.

• Keep clean the ventilation slots, motor

housing and handles of the appliance.

Use a damp cloth or a brush.

• Saw chain (

1) is to be wiped only

with a dry cloth.

Resharpening of the saw

chain

Leave the resharpening of a saw chain

to an expert or proceed according to the

instructions of your saw chain sharpener.

Resharpening a saw chain takes some

practice. If in doubt, replacing the saw

chain is preferable.

Storage

• Clean the equipment before putting it

away.

• Put on blade cover (

18).

• Always empty the oil tank before paus-

es in operation lasting several weeks

because the biological chain oil can

become resinous and block the oil out-

let channel. Dispose of used oil in an

environmentally correct manner.

• Store the device in a dry, frost-free,

and dust-protected place and out of

reach of children.

Because there is a ventilation open-

ing in the oil tank lid, it cannot al-

ways be excluded that oil is emitted

in all device positions. It is therefore

advisable to empty the oil tank be-

fore each storage period.

Waste disposal and en-

vironmental protection

Dispose of used oil in an environmentally

correct manner - bring it to a waste dispos-

al center. Do not dispose of used oil in the

sewage system or drains.

Be environmentally friendly. Return the

tool, accessories and packaging to a recy-

cling centre when you have nished with

them.

Machines do not belong with do-

mestic waste.

Empty the oil tank carefully and

hand in your electric chainsaw at

a disposal center. The plastic and

metal parts employed can be sep-

arated out and thus recycled use

can be implemented. Ask our Ser-

vice-Center for details.
