Safety Notes
7
Should the appliance become damaged, do not use it and
have it repaired by a professional or contact our customer
support department. Do not disassemble the appliance or try
repairing it yourself.
Personal safety equipment must be worn at any time. When
working with the pole saw wear a helmet, protective gloves
and eye protection in order to protect the eyes from falling
shavings and oil splashes.
We also recommend wearing cut-proof and tight-fitting clothes
and safety boots.
Avoid using the pole saw close to power lines. Keep a safety
distance of at least 15 m to over ground power lines.
Do not stand under the branch you are cutting. Branches may
fall without warning. Work at an angle of no more than 60°.
Keep in mind that, when using the upper point of the saw, the
pole saw may kick back quite violently.
Keep your eyes not only on the branches you are cutting; also
permanently observe the ground to prevent tripping over
branches that already have fallen down.
Always wear gloves when handling the saw chain.
