WARNING!
Do not make unauthorized modifi-
cations or alterations to your pole
pruner or its components.
WARNING!
Both kickback and pinching may
cause you to lose control of the pole
pruner tool which could result in
serious personal injury.
Do not rely
exclusively on the safety device
built into the pruner!
You must take
several steps to keep your jobs free
from accident or injury:
1. Understand kickback and pinch-
ing! You can reduce or eliminate
the element of surprise. Sudden
surprises contributes to accidents.
Kickback and Pinching Safety Precautions
2. Keep a firm grip on the pole pruner
with both hands whenever the en-
gine is running. A firm grip will help
you reduce the affects of kickback
and pinching as well as maintain
control
of the machine.
3. Make sure the area in which you
are cutting is free from obstruc-
tions. Do not let the nose of the
guide bar contact a log, branch, or
any other obstructions which could
be hit while you operate the pole
pruner tool.
4. Cut at high engine speeds.
5. Follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions for sharpening and maintain-
ing the chain.
6. Use only the replacement bar and
chain or equivalent as specified by
the manufacturer.
Beware of pinching.
Pinching the saw along the
tip of the guide bar may force
the bar back rapidly toward
the operator. Pinching can
occur whenever wood closes in around the
moving chain.
Beware of Kickback!
Kickback can occur when-
ever the tip of the guide bar
touches an object while the
saw is operating. Kickback may force the
bar up and back toward the operator with
lightning-like speed!
