Quick guide from the manual

This manual provides instructions for the Gardena TCS 20/18V P4A Battery Pole Pruner. Always read the safety instructions before use. The product is intended for delimbing trees, hedges, and bushes with limbs up to 8 cm in diameter.

Assembly

Telescopic handle

Slide the telescopic tube into the motor unit until it stops. Ensure the two markings (M) are opposite each other. Tighten the grey nut.

Shoulder strap

Widen the belt clip, clamp it around the tube, and tighten with the screw. Hook the carabiner onto the belt clip and adjust the length with the quick release fastener.

Operation

Charging the battery

Push the locking button and remove the battery. Connect the charger to a mains socket and slide it onto the battery. Flashing green indicates charging; permanent green indicates fully charged.

Filling chain oil

Unscrew the oil tank lid and fill with chain oil until the viewing window is full. Check the lubrication system by pointing the bar at a bright surface; oil traces should appear after one minute.

Maintenance

Tensioning the chain

Loosen the two screws. Lift the chain in the middle of the bar; the gap should be 2-3 mm. Turn the adjusting screw clockwise to increase tension or counter-clockwise to decrease it. Retighten the screws.

Troubleshooting

If the pole pruner does not start, check if the battery is empty, if the error LED is illuminated, or if the motor is blocked. Ensure the battery is fully inserted until it audibly engages.
