2. Sawing on a sawhorse:
Hold the electric chainsaw steady with both
hands, keeping the saw in front of you while
sawing. Once the saw is through the wood, guide
the machine passed you on the right (1). Hold
your left arm as straight as you can (2). Watch out
for the falling trunk. Position yourself to prevent
any danger from the separated trunk. Watch your
feet. The trunk may cause injuries when falling.
Keep your balance (3).
Limbing
Limbing is the designation for the sawing off of
branches and boughs from a felled tree.
Many accidents occur during the removal of
branches. Never cut tree limbs when you are
standing on the log. Keep the spring-back area in
mind if branches are under tension.
• Do not remove support branches until after the
sawing off.
• Branches under tension must be sawed from
below to above, in order to prevent jamming of
the chainsaw.
When working on thicker branches, use the same
technique as when you are sawing up a felled trunk.
• Work to the left of the log and as near as
possible to the electric chainsaw. As far as
possible, the weight of the saw should rest on
the log.
• Change position to saw off branches on the
other side of the trunk.
• Branches sticking out are cut off separately.
5. MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning and maintenance, always
switch off the machine and remove the
battery pack from the machine.
Only use original spare parts. Allow the device to
cool off before undertaking any maintenance or
cleaning work. There is a danger of burns!
Use cut-protection gloves when handling
the chain or the chain bar. Risk of cuts!

Cleaning
• Clean the machine thoroughly after every use.
In this way, you extend the life of the machine
and avoid accidents.
• Keep the gripping handles free of petrol, oil
or grease. Clean the gripping handles, where
appropriate, with a moist cloth soaked in soap.
Use no solvents or petrol for cleaning!
• Clean the saw chain after every use. Use a
paint brush or wipe for that. Do not use any
liquids to clean the chain. After cleaning, oil the
chain lightly with chain oil.
• Clean the ventilation slots and the surfaces of
the machine with a paint brush, whisk or dry
cloth. Do not use any liquids for cleaning.
Saw chain oiling
Clean and oil the chain regularly. This keeps the
chain sharp and achieves optimum machine
performance. Damage due to insufficient
maintenance of the saw chain will invalidate the
warranty.
Remove the battery and use cut-
resistant gloves when working with the
chain or with the blade bar.
The blade bar and chain must never be
operated without oil. If the cordless
pruner saw is used with too little oil, the
cutting performance and lifespan of the
saw chain will decrease as the chain will
become blunt more quickly. You can
identify when there is too little oil if
smoke develops or the blade bar
changes colour.
Switch off the device and remove the
battery before carrying out any
maintenance work.
• Oil the chain after cleaning, after 10 hours of
use or at least once a week, whichever comes
first.
• Before oiling, the blade bar, especially the
teeth of the blade bar, must be thoroughly
cleaned. Use a hand brush and a dry cloth for
this purpose.
• Oil the individual chain links using an oil
syringe with a needle tip (available from
specialist dealers). Apply individual drops of
