or on a ladder or other unstable surface. You may lose
control of pole saw causing severe injury.
2. Follow directions below to trim a tee.
a. Make sure pole saw is running at full speed before
making a cut. When starting a cut, place moving
saw chain 14 against limb. Hold pole saw firmly in
place to avoid possible bouncing or skating (sideways
movement) of pole saw.
b. Guide pole saw using light pressure. Make first cut
152 mm from tree trunk on underside of limb. Use
top of guide bar 13
diameter of limb. Then make the finish cut from
the top. If you try to cut off thick branches from the
bottom, the branch may close in and pinch the saw
chain in the cut. If you try to cut off thick branches
from the top, without a shallow undercut, the branch
may splinter. Do not force pole saw. The motor will
overload and can burn out. It will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was intended.
