The Properly Equipped Operator
Always wear a hard hat to
reduce the risk of head injuries
during operation of this unit.
Wear nonslip heavy-duty work
gloves to improve your grip on
the pole pruner handle. Wear
snug-fitting clothes that also
permit freedom of movement.
NEVER wear shorts!
Wear sturdy footwear with
nonslip soles to provide good
footing. Steel-toed safety boots
are recommended. Never operate
unit bare-footed!

Operating Precautions

Make sure the chain and sprocket are
correctly adjusted before operating the
pruner (see page 10 for adjustment
procedures). Never attempt
chain adjustment with the
engine running!
Always make sure the cutting
attachment is properly installed and
firmly tightened before operation.
Never use a cracked or warped guide
bar: replace it with a serviceable guide
bar and make sure it fits properly.
If a saw blade should bind fast in a
cut, shut off the engine immediately.
Push the branch or tree to ease the
bind and free the blade.

Always wear eye and hearing
protection. Shindaiwa
recommends wearing a face
shield as additional face and
eye protection.
Always operate with both
hands firmly gripping the unit.
Keep a proper footing and do
not overreach—maintain your
balance at all times during
operation.
Keep bystanders at least 15 meters away
from the operating pruner to reduce the
risk of being struck by falling objects or
thrown debris.
WARNING!
Operating Precautions
Make sure there are no missing or
loose fasteners, and that the ignition
switch and throttle controls are working
properly.
Before starting the engine, make
sure the saw chain is not contacting
anything.
Operate the saw only in a well
ventilated area. Be aware of carbon
monoxide poisoning. Exhaust gases
and lubrication oil mist can cause
serious injury or death.
Do not operate the unit with the muffler
removed.
When cutting a limb that is under
tension, be alert for springback so that
you will not be struck by the moving
limb.
Never operate the pruner at an
angle greater than 60° in order to
reduce the risk of being struck by
falling objects during operation.
Always stop the engine immediately and
check for damage if you strike a foreign
object or if the unit becomes tangled. Do not
operate with broken or damaged equipment.
Stop the unit immediately if it suddenly
begins to vibrate or shake. Inspect for
broken, missing or improperly installed
parts or attachments.
Never transport the unit nor set it down
with the engine running. An engine
that's running could be accidentally
accelerated causing the chain to
rotate.
Make sure the chain cover is in place
when transporting and storing the
pruner.
When carrying by hand, the chain
should be pointing backward.
