length with the pole saw standing
vertically. The top section of the pole
could descend rapidly and pinch your
hand.
PIVOTING THE SAW HEAD
The pole is designed to pivot at the top
end to allow the saw head to contact
branches in the most advantageous
position. To pivot the saw head,
squeeze the two black buttons at
the top of the pole (only the left side
button will actually depress), pivot the
saw head to the desired position, and
release the buttons to lock the saw
head in place. (see figure 18)

saw firmly with both hands while the
motor is running.

OVERHEAD
ELECTRICAL
LINES
- Never operate the pole saw within
50 feet of overhead electrical lines,
Failure to observe this precaution
could result in severe injury,
WARNING: KICKBACK
may occur
when the nose or tip of the guide bar
touches an object, or when the wood
closes in and pinches the saw chain in
the cut. Tip contact in some cases may
cause a lightning fast reverse reaction,
kicking the guide bar up and back
towards the operator. Pinching the
saw chain 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 saw which could result in
serious injury to user.
To Cut Branches
From a Tree:
Make sure the saw is running before
attempting to make a cut.
Using light pressure make a cut on
the underside of the branch six inches
from the trunk using the top side of the
chain. This cut should be no deeper
than 1/3 the thickness of the branch.
