Pole pruner safety warnings - personal
safety
• Keep all parts of the body away
from the saw chain when using the
pole pruner. Before you start the pole
pruner, make sure the saw chain is
not contacting anything. A moment of
inattention while operating pole pruners
may cause entanglement of your clothing
or body with the saw chain.
• Always hold the pole pruner with your right
hand on the rear handle and your left hand
on the shaft. Holding the pole pruner with a
reversed hand configuration increases the
risk of personal injury and should never be
done.
• Wear eye protection. Further protective
equipment for hearing, head, hands, legs
and feet is recommended. Adequate
protective equipment will reduce personal
injury from flying debris or accidental
contact with the saw chain.
• Always keep proper footing and operate
the pole pruner only when standing on
fixed, secure and level surface. Slippery
or unstable surfaces may cause a loss of
balance or control of the pole pruner.
• When cutting a limb that is under tension,
be alert for spring back. When the tension
in the wood fibres is released, the spring
loaded limb may strike the operator and/or
throw the pole pruner out of control.
• Use extreme caution when cutting brush
and saplings. The slender material may
6
catch the pole pruner and be whipped
toward you or pull you off balance.
• Follow instructions for lubricating, chain
tensioning and changing the bar and chain.
Improperly tensioned or lubricated chain
may either break or increase the chance
for kickback.
• Carry the pole pruner by the shaft with the
pole pruner switched off and away from
your body. When transporting or storing
the pole pruner, always fit the guide bar
cover. Proper handling of the pole pruner
will reduce the likelihood of accidental
contact with the moving saw chain.
• Cut wood only. Do not use pole pruner
for purposes not intended. For example:
do not use pole pruner for cutting metal,
plastic, masonry or non-wood building
materials. Use of the pole pruner for
operations different than intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
• Keep handles dry, clean and free from
oil and grease. Greasy, oily handles are
slippery causing loss of control.
• This pole pruner is not intended for
tree felling.Use of the pole pruner for
operations different than intended could
result in serious injury to the operator or
bystanders.
Causes and operator prevention of
kickback
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of
the guide bar touches an object, or when the
wood closes in and pinches the pole pruner
in the cut. Tip contact in some cases may
cause a sudden reverse reaction, kicking the
guide bar up and back towards the operator.
Pinching the pole pruner along the top of the
guide bar may push the guide bar rapidly back
towards the operator. Either of these reactions
may cause you to lose control of the pole
pruner which could result in serious personal
injury. Do not rely exclusively upon the safety
devices built into your pole pruner. As a pole
pruner user, you should take several steps to
keep your cutting jobs free from accident or
injury. Kickback is the result of pole pruner
misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures
or conditions and can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as given below:
• Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and
fingers encircling the pole pruner handles,
with both hands on the pole pruner and
