Pole saw safety warnings:
•
Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain when
the pole saw is operating. Before you start the pole saw,
make sure the saw chain is not contacting anything.
A
moment of inattention while operating pole saws may cause
entanglement of your clothing or body with the saw chain.
•
Always hold the pole saw with your right hand on the rear
handle and your left hand on the front handle.
Holding the
pole saw with a reversed hand configuration increases the risk
of personal injury and should never be done.
•
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only,
because the saw chain may contact hidden wiring.
Saw chains
contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
•
Wear safety glasses and hearing protection. Further
protective equipment for head, hands, legs and feet is
recommended.
Adequate protective clothing will reduce
personal injury by flying debris or accidental contact with the
saw chain.
•
Do not operate a pole saw in a tree.
Operation of a pole saw
while up in a tree may result in personal injury.
•
Always keep proper footing and operate the pole saw only
when standing on fixed, secure and level surface.
Slippery
or unstable surfaces such as ladders may cause a loss of
balance or control of the pole saw.
•
When cutting a limb that is under tension be alert for
spring back.
When the tension in the wood fibers is released
the spring loaded limb may strike the operator and/or throw
the pole saw out of control.
•
Use extreme caution when cutting brush and saplings.
The
slender material may catch the saw chain and be whipped
toward you or pull you off balance.
•
Carry the pole saw by the front handle with the pole saw
switched off and away from your body. When transporting
or storing the pole saw always fit the guide bar cover.
Proper handling of the pole saw will reduce the likelihood of
accidental contact with the moving saw chain.
•
Follow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning and
changing accessories.
Improperly tensioned or lubricated
chain may either break or increase the chance of kickback.
•
Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
Greasy, oily handles are slippery causing loss of control.
•
Cut wood only. Do not use pole saw for purposes not
intended. For example: do not use pole saw for cutting
plastic, masonry or non-wood building materials.
Use of
the pole saw for operations different than intended could result
in a hazardous situation.
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 saw chain 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 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 personal injury. Do not rely exclusively
upon the safety devices built into your saw. As a pole saw user, you
should take several steps to keep your cutting jobs free from
accident or injury.
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating
procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper
precautions as give below:
•
Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers encircling
the pole saw handles, with both hands on the saw and
position your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback
forces.
Kickback forces can be controlled by the operator, if
proper precautions are taken. Do not let go of the pole saw.
•
Do not overreach and do not hold above shoulder height.
This helps prevent unintended tip contact and enables better
control of the pole saw in unexpected situations.
•
Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the
manufacturer.
Incorrect replacement bars and chains may
cause chain breakage and/or kickback.
•
Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and maintenance
instructions for the saw chain.
Decreasing the depth gauge
height can lead to increased kickback.
