Eto ati Apejọ

1. Fifi sori batiri

The Murray IQ18PSH requires an 18V Li-Ion battery (not included). Ensure the battery is fully charged before use. Slide the battery pack into the base of the main handle until it clicks securely into place.

This image shows the connection point for the 18V battery at the base of the tool's handle.

2. Attaching the Attachments (Pole Saw / Hedge Trimmer)

Select either the pole saw or hedge trimmer attachment. Align the attachment head with the telescopic shaft and push it firmly until it locks into position. Ensure the connection is secure before operation.

This image illustrates the process of attaching the hedge trimmer head to the telescopic shaft.

3. Adjusting the Telescopic Shaft

The telescopic shaft allows for extended reach. To adjust, loosen the locking mechanism, extend the shaft to your desired length (up to 290cm for hedge trimmer, 260cm for pole saw), and then securely tighten the locking mechanism. Ensure the shaft is fully locked before use.

This image shows how to adjust the length of the telescopic shaft for extended reach.

4. Adjusting the Auxiliary Handle

Position the auxiliary handle along the telescopic shaft for comfortable and secure grip. Loosen the knob, slide the handle to the desired position, and then tighten the knob firmly to fix it in place.

This image demonstrates the adjustment of the auxiliary handle on the telescopic pole.

5. Pole Saw Chain Tensioning

The pole saw attachment features a tool-less chain tensioning system. To adjust chain tension, rotate the green knob on the side of the saw head. Ensure the chain is snug but can still be pulled freely around the bar by hand. Refer to the diagram on the tool for correct tensioning.

This image highlights the chain tensioning mechanism on the pole saw attachment.

6. Pole Saw Chain Lubrication

The chainsaw attachment is equipped with an automatic lubrication system. Before each use, ensure the oil reservoir is filled with appropriate chain oil. Check the oil level indicator (MAX/MIN) to ensure sufficient lubrication for the chain and bar.

1. Gbogbogbo isẹ

Before starting, ensure the battery is fully charged and securely installed. Always maintain a firm grip with both hands on the tool and ensure stable footing. Keep bystanders, especially children and pets, at a safe distance from the work area. Avoid operating the tool in wet conditions or near power lines.

2. Using the Pole Saw

The 20cm Oregon bar and 3/8" low profile saw chain are designed for efficient cutting of branches up to 15cm thick. Position the saw carefully on the branch, allowing the chain to do the work. Avoid forcing the saw, as this can lead to kickback or damage. For larger branches, make an undercut first to prevent bark stripping.

3. Using the Hedge Trimmer

The 41cm blade with a 16mm cutting capacity is suitable for trimming most hedges and thicker twigs. The pivoting trimmer head can be adjusted to 7 different positions. To adjust, press the release button and rotate the head to the desired angle, then ensure it locks securely. Use a sweeping motion to trim hedges, working from bottom to top for best results.
