Never climb into a tree to prune!
Do not stand on ladders, platforms, logs,

cut off the limb further out to reduce the weight!
This prevents stripping the bark from the main
member!
f). Never stand on a ladder or other type of unstable
support while using the product. Insecure
stand invites hazards. (See Fig. 15e)
