saw.
WARNING
Cutting
Basic Cutting (Fig.8a & 8b)
NOTICE: Practice cutting a few small logs
using the following technique to get the "feel"
of using your saw before you begin a major
sawing operation. Follow the steps below to
prevent damage to tree or shrub bark. Do not
use a back-and-forth sawing motion.
1. Make a shallow first cut (1/4 of the limb
diameter) on the underside of the limb,
close to the main limb or trunk.
2. Make a second cut from the top side of the
limb, outboard from the first cut. Continue
the second cut through the limb until the
limb separates from the tree. Be prepared
to balance the weight of the tool when the
limb falls.
3. Make the final cut close to the trunk.
NOTICE: For the second and final cuts (from
the top of the limb or branch), hold the bucking
spikes against the limb being cut (Fig. 8c). This
will help to steady the limb and make it easier
to cut. Allow the chain to cut for you; exert only
light, downward pressure. If you force the cut,
damage to the bar, chain, or motor can result.
4. Release the trigger switch as soon as the cut
is completed.
NOTICE: Failure to follow proper cutting
procedures will result in the bar and chain
binding and becoming pinched or trapped in the
limb. If this should happen:
Stop the motor and remove the battery pack.
•
If the limb can be reached from the ground,
•
lift the limb while holding the saw. This should
release the "pinch" and free the saw.
If the saw is still trapped, call a professional
•
for assistance.
Always remove the battery pack from the pole saw during work
breaks and after finishing work .
