The saw chain must always throw off a 
small amount of oil.
: Always check chain lubrication and 
the oil level in the tank before 
starting work.
Never operate your pruner without 
chain lubrication. If the chain is run 
dry, the whole cutting attachment 
will be irretrievably damaged within 
a very short time.
Inadequate lubrication can be caused by 
a dirty oil strainer: Have the oil strainer 
cleaned or replaced by your servicing 
dealer.
Every new chain has to be broken in 
for about 2 to 3 minutes.
After breaking in the chain, check 
chain tension and adjust if 
necessary – see chapter
"Checking Chain Tension".
Always shut off the engine and fit the 
chain guard

Shoulder strap*

spring hook (2), with the unit 
attached, is at about the same 
height as your right hip.
