Bring the lower guide or tip guide (if equipped) into
contact with the branch to be cut before switching on.
Cutting without bringing the tip guide/lower guide into
contact with the branch may cause the guide bar to
wobble, resulting in injury to operator.
When cutting thick branches, first make a shallow
undercut and then make the finish cut from the top.

If you try to cut off thick branches from the bottom, the
branch may close in and pinch the saw chain in the cut.
If you try to cut off thick branches from the top without a
shallow undercut, the branch may splinter.
