To avoid accidental starting, never carry the unit with your
finger on the switch trigger.
Maintain the unit with care. Keep the cutting edge sharp
and clean for best performance and to reduce the risk
of injury. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing
accessories.
Do not operate a pruning saw with one hand! Use a firm
grip with thumbs and fingers encircling the pruning saw
handles. Serious injury to the operator, helpers, bystand-
ers, or any combination of these persons may result from
one-handed operation. A pruning saw is intended for
two-handed use.
Guard against electric shock – Avoid body contact with
grounded surfaces such as metal pipes and wire fences.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body
is grounded.
Do not operate a pruning saw that is damaged, improp-
erly adjusted, or not completely and securely assembled.
Chain should slow to a stop when the switch trigger is
released. If the chain continues to turn after the switch
trigger has been released, have the unit serviced by an
authorized service center.
Check for damaged parts. Check for alignment of mov-
ing parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its
operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should
be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized ser-
vice center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere in this
manual.
All pruning saw service, other than the items listed in the
operation and maintenance sections, should be performed
by an authorized service center.
Always maintain a proper stance.
Do not use pruning saw if switch does not turn it on and
off. Have switch replaced by an authorized service center.
Do not adapt your power head to a bow guide or use it
to power any attachments or devices not listed for the
saw.
Disconnect pruning saw from power supply when not in
use, before servicing, and when making adjustments and
changing attachments, such as saw chain and guard.
Do not cut vines and/or small underbrush.
Do not operate a pruning saw in a tree, on a ladder, roof-
top, scaffold, or other unstable support; this is extremely
dangerous.
NOTE: The size of the work area depends on the job
being performed as well as the size tree or work piece
involved. For example, felling a tree requires a larger work
area than making bucking cuts.
PRUNING SAW SAFETY WARNINGS
Do not force the pruning saw. The job can be performed
better and safer at the rate for which it was intended.
Always use the right product for your application. The
pruning saw should be used for cutting wood only. Never
use the pruning saw to cut plastic, masonry or non-wood
building materials.
Store pruning saw when not charging or when not in use.
Pruning saw should be stored in a dry and high or locked
area out of the reach of children. When storing pruning
saw place the scabbard on the bar and chain.
Use this product only with charger HOMCC01.
Battery operated units do not have to be plugged into an
electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in operating
condition. Be aware of possible hazards even when unit
is not operating.
Make sure the switch trigger is locked out in the off posi-
tion when not charging and before cleaning, servicing,
storing, removing material from the unit, changing acces-
sories such as the bar and chain, or when not in use.
Never use water or any liquids to clean or rinse off your
product and do not expose the product to rain or wet
conditions. Store indoors in a dry area. Corrosive liquids,
water, and chemicals can enter the product's electronic
components and/or battery compartment and damage
electronic components and/or the battery pack, which can
result in a short circuit, increased risk of fire, and serious
personal injury. Remove any buildup of dirt and debris by
wiping the product clean with a dry cloth occasionally.
KICKBACK
See Figures 2 - 4.
WARNING
Kickback may occur when the moving chain contacts an
object at the upper portion of the tip of the guide bar or
when the wood closes in and pinches the saw chain in the
cut. Contact at the upper portion of the tip of the guide
bar can cause the chain to dig into the object and stop the
chain for an instant. The result is a lightning fast, reverse
reaction which kicks the guide bar up and back toward
the operator. If the saw chain is pinched along the top of
the guide bar, the guide bar can be driven rapidly back
toward the operator. Either of these reactions can cause
loss of saw control which can result in serious injury. Do
not rely exclusively upon the safety devices built into the
saw. As a pruning saw user, you should take several steps
to keep your cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
