Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain
when the pole saw is operating. Before you start the
pole saw, make sure the saw chain is not contacting
anything. A moment of inattention while operating pole
saws may cause entanglement of your clothing or body
with the saw chain.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces
only, because the saw chain may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Saw chains contacting a live wire
may make exposed metal parts of the power tool live and
could give the operator an electric shock.
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 flying debris or accidental contact with
the saw chain.
Always keep proper footing and operate the pole saw
only when standing on fixed, secure and level surface.
Slippery or unstable surfaces may cause a loss of balance
or control of the pole saw.
When cutting a limb that is under tension be alert for
spring back. When the tension in the wood fibres is
released the spring loaded limb may strike the operator
and/or throw the pole saw out of control.
EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in
good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure it is
heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An
undersized extension cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following table
shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next
gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.

WARNING: Use out door extension cords marked SW-A,
SOW-A, STW-A, SJW-A, or SJTW-A. These cords are rated
for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.

person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
When servicing a power tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in the
Maintenance section of this manual. Use of
unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance
instructions may create a risk of shock or injury.
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.
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 pole saw for purposes not
intended. Use of the pole saw for operations different
than intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Only use replacement bars and chains specified by
the manufacturer. Incorrect replacement bars and
chains may cause chain breakage and/or kickback.
Follow the manufacturer's sharpening and
maintenance instructions for the saw chain.
Decreasing the depth gauge height can lead to increased
kickback.
DOUBLE INSULATION—Double Insulation is a concept in
safety in electric power tools, which eliminates the need for
the usual three-wire grounded power cord. All exposed metal
parts are isolated from the internal metal motor components
with protecting insulation. Double insulated tools do not need
to be grounded.
heavier
NOTE: The double insulated system is intended to protect the
user from shock resulting from a break in the tool's
internal insulation. Observe all normal safety precautions to
avoid electrical shock.
It is possible to tie the extension cord and pow-
er cord in a knot to prevent them from
becoming disconnected during use. Make the
knot as shown, then connect the plug end of
the power cord into the receptacle end of the
extension cord,. This method can also be used
to tie two extension cords together.
