MC-PS(Multi-Cutter with Pruner Attachment)
Before using the Multi-Cutter with Pruner Attachment, check the following:
1. Make sure the chain oil tank on the pruner head is full.
IMPORTANT: When filling an empty oil tank, wait approximately 60-90 seconds before starting
the Pruner. This will give the oil time to flow from the tank to the pump. Otherwise, an air lock
can occur which will prevent oil from moving through the pump. This will result in damage to
the chain and guide bar.
IMPORTANT: Never run the chain dry.
2. The unit may be on the operator’s right side. The operator’s right hand should be holding the shaft grip,
with his or her fingers on the throttle trigger. The right arm should be slightly bent.
3. The left hand should be holding the loop handle with the fingers and thumb fully enclosed around the
grip. The left arm should be extended. Reposition the loop handle up or down the driveshaft if
necessary for a comfortable position.
4. The Pruner weight should be evenly distributed between the arms.
5. Always release the throttle trigger and allow the engine to return to idle speed when not cutting.
6. Stop the engine when moving between work sites.
・
If the Pruner chain becomes jammed, stop the engine immediately.
・
Make certain all moving parts have stopped and disconnect the spark plug before inspecting the
equipment for damage.
・
Never use a unit that has a damaged chain or guide bar.
