2. Using the 8-inch Mini Chainsaw
- Chain Lubrication: Before each use, ensure the chainsaw chain is adequately lubricated. The chainsaw features a manual pressure lubrication system. Apply chain oil as directed in the Maintenance section.
- Power On: Ensure the battery is installed. Hold the chainsaw firmly with both hands. Press the safety lock button and then squeeze the trigger to start the chain.
- Cutting: Allow the chain to reach full speed before contacting the branch. Apply steady, even pressure. Avoid cutting with the tip of the guide bar to prevent kickback.
- Power Off: Release the trigger to stop the chain.

3. Using the Telescopic Pole Attachments
- Secure Assembly: Ensure the desired tool (pruner or chainsaw) is securely attached to the telescopic pole and the pole is extended and locked at the appropriate length.
- Adjust Angle: The tool head can be adjusted from 30° to 150° to facilitate cutting at various angles for high branches. Loosen the angle adjustment knob, set the desired angle, and tighten the knob securely.
- Maintain Balance: When operating with the telescopic pole, always maintain a stable stance and a firm grip on the handle. Be aware of the tool's extended reach and potential for imbalance.
- Overhead Work: Exercise extreme caution when working overhead. Be aware of falling branches and debris.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Yofidra tool.
- Cleaning: After each use, remove the battery and clean the tool thoroughly. Use a dry cloth to wipe down the housing. Remove any sap, wood chips, or debris from the blades, chain, and ventilation openings.
- Chainsaw Chain Lubrication: Regularly apply chain oil to the chainsaw chain using the manual pressure lubrication system. Proper lubrication reduces friction, prevents overheating, and extends chain life.
- Blade Sharpening (Pruner): Keep the pruning shear blades sharp for clean cuts. Sharpen them with a suitable sharpening tool as needed.
- Chain Tension (Chainsaw): Periodically check and adjust the chainsaw chain tension. A properly tensioned chain should be snug but still allow for manual movement around the guide bar. Refer to the accessory kit for adjustment tools.
- Storage: Store the tool, batteries, and charger in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure batteries are partially charged for long-term storage.
