damp branches. Maintain a clear-

ance of at least 15m between Pole

saw and any electrical line carry-

ing live current.

 IF SOMEONE COMES

1. Guard against hazardous situa-

tions at all times. Warn adults to

keep pets and children away from

the area. Be careful if you are ap-

proached. Injury may result from

flying debris.

2. If someone calls out or otherwise

interrupts you while working, al-

ways be sure to turn off the en-

gine before turning around.

around to make sure that there are

no sparks or open flames any-

where nearby before refueling.

4. Wipe spilled fuel completely us-

ing a dry rag if any fuel spillage

occurs during refueling.

5. After refueling, screw the fuel cap

back tightly onto the fuel tank and

then carry the unit to a spot 3 m

essary, lift up the product and

carry it paying attention to the

blade.

2. Never transport the product over

rough roads over long distances

by vehicle without removing all

fuel from the fuel tank. If doing so,
