SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
■ Keep all parts of the body away from the
saw chain. Do not remove cut material or
hold material to be cut when saw chain is
moving. Make sure the switch is off when
clearing jammed material. A moment of
inattention while operating the pole saw may
result in serious personal injury.
■ Hold the pole saw 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 pole saw “live” and could give the
operator an electric shock.
■ Keep all parts of the body away from the
saw chain when operating the pole saw.
Before you start the pole saw, make sure
the saw chain is not contacting anything. A
moment of inattention while operating may
cause entanglement of your clothing or body
with the saw chain.
■ Always hold the pole saw with both hands
on the handle. Holding the pole saw with
only one hand or on parts not intended for
that increases the risk of personal injury and
should never be done.
■ 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 ying debris or accidental contact with the
saw chain.
■ Do not operate pole saw in a tree.
Operation of a pole saw while up in a tree
may result in personal injury.
■ When cutting a limb that is under tension
be alert for spring back. When the tension in
the wood bers 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 soft grip with
the product switched off and away from
your body. When transporting or storing the
pole saw always t the scabbard. Proper
handling of the product 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 for
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 product 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.
■ Pay attention to national and local
regulations. National and local regulations
may restrict the use of this product.
■ Do not operate a pole saw that is damaged,
improperly adjusted, or not completely and
securely assembled. Chain should stop
turning when the trigger switch is released.
If chain turns after the trigger switch has
been released, discontinue pole saw use
immediately. If within warranty period, return
unit to retailer of purchase for replacement.
■ Only use replacement guide bars and saw
chains as Listed in the Product Specications
in this manual. Incorrect replacement bars
and chains may cause chain breakage and/
or kickback, resulting in personal injuries and
damage to property.
■ Never remove or modify any guard or
safety component. Ensure that guards and
other safety components necessary for
machine operation are in position, in good
working condition and properly maintained to
avoid injuries.

SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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 product 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 given below:
■ Maintain a rm grip, with thumbs and
ngers encircling the product handles, with
both hands on the saw and position your
body and arms 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 product.
■ Make sure that the area in which you are
cutting is free from obstructions. Do not
let the nose of the guide bar contact a log,
branch, fence, or any other obstruction that
could be hit while you are operating the saw.
■ Do not overreach. This helps prevent
unintended tip contact and enables better
control of the product in unexpected
situations.
■ Use replacement parts such as low
kickback chain and special guide bars that
reduce the risks associated with rotational
kickback.
■ Use only the replacement guide bars
and low kickback chains specied by the
manufacturer for the saw.
■ Follow the sharpening and maintenance
instructions for the saw chain. Decreasing
the depth gauge height can lead to increased
kickback.
VIBRATION AND NOISE REDUCTION
To reduce the impact of noise and vibration
emission, limit the time of operation, as well
as wear personal protective equipment.
Take the following points into account to
minimize the vibration and noise exposure
risks:
■ Only use the product as intended by its
design and these instructions.
■ Ensure that the product is in good condition
and well maintained.
■ Use correct cutting attachments for
the product and ensure they are in good
condition.
■ Keep a tight grip on the handles/grip
surface.
■ Maintain the pole saw in accordance with
these instructions and keep it well lubricated
(where appropriate).
■ Plan your work schedule to spread any
high vibration tool use across a longer period
of time.
