2 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
2-4. POLE SAW TRIMMING PRECAUTIONS
1.
Be aware of extension cord while operating chain saw.
Be careful not to trip over cord. Keep cord away from
chain and operator at all times.
2.
Keep bystanders 50 feet (15 meters) away when oper-
ating saw.
3.
Do not use the pole saw to cut down trees. Use the
chain saw without pole attachment.
4.
Grip pole saw securely - one hand on the pole, the
other on the handle.
5.
Keep finger off trigger until ready to make cut.
6.
Before starting pole saw, make sure chain is not
touching anything.
7.
Keep all parts of body away from chain when saw is
running.
8.
Do not force chain saw while cutting. Apply light pres-
sure. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was intended.
9.
When cutting limbs or branches that are under ten-
sion, use extreme caution. Be alert for wood springing
back. When wood tension is released, limb could
spring back and strike operator causing severe injury
or death.
10. When Carrying pole saw from one place to another:
• unplug unit • return telescoping pole to shortest
position • hold pole at balance point (close to saw
end) • keep guide bar and chain to rear
11. Do not cut small brush and saplings with the pole saw.
Use the chain saw only, with extreme care. Slender
matter may catch in the chain and be whipped toward
you. This could also pull you off balance.
12. Never stand directly under the limb you are trimming.
Always position yourself out of the path of falling
debris. (See Fig. 2-4A)
13. Never stand on a ladder or other type of unstable sup-
port while using the pole saw.
14. Always use both hands to operate pole saw. Keep a
firm, steady pressure on the pole saw while cutting but
do not try to force the saw through the wood.
15. Do not use the pole saw to cut limbs larger in diame-
ter than 4" (10 cm) in diameter. (See Fig. 2-4B)
16. Keep other persons away from cutting end of pole saw
and at a safe distance from work area. (See Fig. 2-4C)
17. Do not use pole saw near cable, electric power or tele-
phone lines. Maintain a minimum clearance of 10 feet
from all power lines. (See Fig. 2-4D)
