To use the product
• Hold the product as close to your body as possible to
get the best balance. Use the harness to support the
weight of the machine and make it easier to handle.
• Make sure that the tip does not touch the ground.
• Do not rush the work, but work steadily until all the
branches have been cut back cleanly.
• Always slow the engine to idle speed after each
working operation. Long periods at full throttle
without any load on the engine can lead to serious
engine damage.

make the cut at right angles to the branch.

you (like a fishing rod) as this increases the apparent
weight of the cutting attachment.
