for which it was intended.
• Use the right tool. Cut wood only. Do not use the pole saw for purposes
for which it was not intended. For example, do not use the pole saw for
cutting plastic, masonry, or non-building materials.
• Use devices, such as low-kickback chain, guide bar nose guards, chain
brakes and special guide bars, which reduce the risks associated with
kickback.

infrequent use by homeowner's, cottagers and campers, and for such
general applications such as clearing, pruning, cutting firewood, etc. It is
not intended for prolonged use. If the intended use involves prolonged
periods of operation, this may cause circulatory problems in the user's
hands due to vibration. It may be appropriate to use a saw having an
anti-vibration feature.
• Safety clothing required by your safety organizations,
government regulations, or your employer should be used;
otherwise, snug fitting clothing, safety footwear, and hand and
ear protection should be worn.
