you are left-handed.
To ensure safe control, wrap your

Limbing
max 60°
Hold the pole saw at an angle. Do not
stand directly underneath the limb being
cut. Do not exceed an angle of 60° from
the horizontal. Watch for falling wood.
Keep the work area clear – remove
interfering limbs and brush.
Before limbing, establish a path of
escape and remove all obstacles.
Position the cutting attachment with the
hook against the branch and then
perform the cross-cut. This reduces the
risk of the pole saw being jerked forward
as you start the cross-cut.
Always cut with a correctly sharpened,
properly tensioned chain – the depth
gauge setting must not be too large.
Perform cross-cut from the top
downward to avoid the chain pinching in
the cut.
If branch is thick or heavy, make a
relieving cut – see chapter on "Using the
Pole Pruner".
To reduce the risk of injury, take special
care when cutting branches under
tension. Always make a relieving cut on
the compression side first and then
perform the bucking cut at the tension
side.
To reduce the risk of injury, take special
care when cutting shattered wood
because of the risk of injury from slivers
being caught and thrown in your
direction.
If on a slope, stand on the uphill side or
to one side of the branch to be cut.
Watch out for rolling branches.
