Specific Safety Rules For  

Pole Chain Saws

m

WARNING!

 SHOCK HAZARD! To protect yourself from 

electrocution, do not operate the pole chain saw within  

50 ft (15 m) of overhead wires. Failure to follow this instruction 

could result in severe personal injury.

m

WARNING!

 Read all safety warnings and all 

instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions 

may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. 

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your 

battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

Before using

1.  Study this manual thoroughly.
2.  Familiarize yourself with the operation of the pole chain 

saw and learn to use it properly.

3.  Never permit others (especially children) who have not 

read the manual to use the machine.

4.  If the unit must be given to other people, give them  

this manual.

5.  Never remove the labels or security elements.
6. 

Do not use the pole chain saw if the trigger on/off switch 

does not work properly. If necessary, contact your dealer 

for any repair.

7.  Never expose the pole chain saw to rain or moisture. 

Never allow water or other liquids to enter the machine.

8.  Check the oil level before each use of the pole chain saw. 

Never use the pole chain saw without oil in the tank or 

when the amount of oil is low.

9.  Check the condition of the chain guide, chain, fasteners 

and safety switch before each use. Replace excessively 

worn or missing parts.

10. 

Do not start the pole chain saw if the chain/sprocket end 

cover is not installed.

11. Do not cut near other electrical machines.
12. Do not operate the pole chain saw in an environment with 

flammable materials such as liquids, gases or dust. The 

sparks generated by the operation of the machine can 

cause an explosion.

13. Do not start cutting until the work area is cleared and 

cleaned. Keep the work area clean and tidy to reduce the 

risk of an accident.

14. 

For the first use, it is recommended that the user be 

accompanied by an experienced person.

When using

1.  Use the pole chain saw only in daylight or good  

artificial light.

2.  The use of power equipment can be regulated. Remember 

to comply with legal regulations which may differ from one 

location to another.

3.  Do not use the pole chain saw if you are tired or ill. Also 

avoid use if you have consumed alcohol or taken drugs.  

A moment of inattention can result in serious injury.

4.  When using, keep your hair away from the machine.  

Never wear loose clothing or accessories such as 

neckties, cords, scarves or jewelry that could get caught 

in the machine or in the cutting system.

5. 

Wear close-fitting clothing to help protect you from cuts. 

Always wear long pants, sturdy non-slip shoes and 

protective equipment such as gloves, goggles, a helmet 

with a visor and an acoustic shield.

6.  Do not allow anyone to remain in the range of the pole 

chain saw during use. Keep people, children and animals 

away from the work area. If conducting group work, keep 

sufficient distance between people.

7.  Make sure that the handles are clean and dry. When the 

pole chain saw is running, always firmly grip the front 

handle with your left hand and the rear handle with your 

right hand.

8. 

Always maintain a stable, balanced and firm stance during 

operation. Do not work on slippery or unstable ground.

9.  Firmly hold the pole chain saw with both hands. Put 

yourself in a position that allows you to withstand the 

forces applied by a backlash. Never let go of the machine.

10. Always start sawing with the moving chain running.
11. Do not saw with the tip of the saw guide bar.
12. During cutting, some tension on the wood may be 

released suddenly and cause springbacks or hazardous 

releases.

13. Never use the pole chain saw above shoulder height  

when cutting.

14. Never operate a damaged machine.
15. Do not overload the machine. 

m

WARNING!

 To reduce the time of exposure to vibration 

and noise, it is preferable to use the machine with frequent 

breaks and limit the duration of continuous work.

m

WARNING!

 The vibration level during actual use of the 

tool can differ depending upon how the tool is used.
