basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce
the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury, including
the following:
READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USE
KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
DANGER!
Do not operate near electrical power lines.
The unit has not been designed to provide protection from
electric shock in the event of contact with overhead electric
lines, Consult local regulations for safe distances from
overhead electric power lines and ensure that the operating
position is safe and secure before operating the tool.
POLE SAW SAFETY WARNINGS
◾
Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain
when the pole saw is operating. Before you start the
pole saw, make sure the saw chain is not contacting
anything. A moment of inattention while operating pole
saws may cause entanglement of your clothing or body
with the chain.

Avoid unintentional contact with the stationary saw
chain or guide bar rails. These can be very sharp.
Always wear gloves and long pants or chaps when
handling the pole saw, saw chain, or guide bar.
Always hold the pole saw with your one hand on
the rear handle and your other hand on the front
handle. Serious injury to the operator, helpers, and/or
bystanders can result from one-handed operation.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces
only, because the saw chain may contact hidden
wiring. Saw chains contacting a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could
give the operator an electric shock.
Wear safety glasses and hearing protection.
Further protective equipment for head, hands,
legs and feet is recommended. Adequate protective
clothing will reduce personal injury by flying debris or
accidental contact with the saw chain.
Do not operate a pole saw in a tree. Operation of
a pole saw while up in a tree may result in personal
injury.
Always keep proper footing and operate the pole
saw only when standing on fixed, secure and level
surface. Slippery or unstable surfaces such as ladders
may cause a loss of balance or control of the pole saw.
Never operate a pole saw that is damaged or
improperly adjusted or that is not completely and
securely assembled. Be sure that the saw chain stops
moving when the trigger switch is released.
Inspect the work piece for nails, wire, or other
foreign objects prior to cutting.
When cutting a limb that is under tension be alert
for spring back. When the tension in the wood fibers
is released the spring loaded limb may strike the
operator and/or throw the pole saw out of control.
Use extreme caution when cutting brush and
saplings. The slender material may catch the saw
chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off
balance.
Aggressive or abusive cutting or misuse of the
pole saw can cause premature bar, chain, and/
or sprocket wear, as well as broken chain or bar,
leading to kickback, chain throw or the ejection of
material.
Never use the guide bar as a lever. A bent guide bar
can cause premature bar, chain, and/or sprocket wear,
as well as a broken chain or bar, leading to kickback,
chain throw or the ejection of material.
