Instruccions de funcionament

The FELCO 611 is a pull-stroke saw, meaning it cuts on the pull stroke, not the push stroke. This design provides greater control and efficiency.

1. Identify the Branch: Select the branch to be cut. Ensure it is stable and will not fall unexpectedly.
2. Posicionament: Place the blade on the underside of the branch first, making a small undercut if the branch is large, to prevent tearing bark when the main cut is made. Then, position the blade on the top side of the branch where the main cut will be.
3. Initiate the Cut: Apply light pressure and begin with short, controlled pull strokes to create a groove.
4. Execute the Cut: Once a groove is established, use longer, steady pull strokes. Allow the saw's sharp teeth to do the work; avoid excessive force on the push stroke.
5. Mantenir el control: Keep a firm grip on the handle and maintain control of the saw throughout the cutting process.
6. Neteja els residus: Periodically clear sawdust and debris from the cutting area to maintain visibility and prevent clogging.

Manteniment

Proper maintenance will extend the life and performance of your FELCO 611 Pruning Saw.

• Assecat: Ensure the blade is completely dry before storing to prevent rust.
• Lubricació: Apply a thin coat of light oil to the blade to protect it from corrosion, especially if storing for extended periods.
• Afilat: The impulse-hardened teeth of the FELCO 611 blade are designed for long-lasting sharpness and are generally not intended for user sharpening. If the blade becomes dull, replacement blades are available.
• Emmagatzematge: Always store the saw in its protective sheath in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and moisture.
