Warning!
Breathing asbestos dust is dangerous
and can cause severe or fatal injury,
respiratory illness or cancer. The use
and disposal of asbestos-containing
products have been strictly regulated by
OSHA and the Environmental Protection
Agency. If you have any reason to
believe that you might be cutting
asbestos, immediately contact your
employer or a local OSHA
representative.

Warning
This power tool has a large range. In
order to reduce the risk of personal or
even fatal injury to bystanders from
falling objects or inadvertent contact with
the moving chain of your power tool
always keep bystanders at least 50 feet
(15m) away when the power tool is
running.
!
Warning!
Even though bystanders should be kept
away from the running saw, never work
alone. Keep within calling distance of
others in case help is needed.
Stop the engine immediately if you are
approached.

15m (50ft)
Danger!
Your power tool is not
insulated against electric
shock. To reduce the risk
of electrocution, never
operate this power tool in the vicinity of
any wires or cables (power, etc.) which
may be carrying electric current.
Electricity can jump from one point to
another by means of arcing. Higher
voltage increases the distance electricity
can arc. Electricity can also move
through branches, especially if they are
wet. Maintain a clearance of at least
50 feet (15 m) between the pole pruner
(including any branches it is contacting)
and any electrical line carrying live
current. Before working with less
clearance, contact your electric utility
and make sure the current is turned off.
Operating instructions
!
Warning!
Do not operate your power tool using the
starting throttle lock, as you do not have
control of the engine speed.
In the event of an emergency, switch off
the engine immediately – move the slide
control / stop switch to 0 or STOP.
!
Warning
To reduce the risk of cut injuries, keep
hands and feet away from the saw
chain. Never touch a moving chain with
your hand or any other part of your body.
The saw chain continues to move for a
short period after the throttle trigger is
released (inertia effect).
Accelerating the engine while the chain
is blocked increases the load and will
cause the clutch to slip continuously.
This may result in overheating and
damage to important components (e.g.
clutch, polymer housing components) –
which can then increase the risk of injury
from the chain moving while the engine
is idling.
!
Warning!
If the chain becomes clogged, always
turn off the engine and make sure the
chain has stopped before cleaning.
