Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term "pole saw" and "equipment" in the warnings and

The term "motor" in the warnings and precautions refers to the
engine or electric motor of the power unit.
Intended use
This attachment is designed for only the purpose of pruning
branches and limbs less than 15 cm in diameter in conjunction
with an approved power unit. Never use the attachment for the
other purpose. Abusing the attachment may cause serious injury.
General precautions
Before starting the pole saw, read this booklet and the instruction
manual of the power unit to become familiar with the handling of
the pole saw.
Do not lend the attachment to a person with insufficient
experience or knowledge regarding handling of pole saws.
When lending the attachment, always attach this instruction
manual.
Do not allow children or young persons under 18 years old to use
the pole saw. Keep them away from the pole saw.
Handle the pole saw with the utmost care and attention.
Never use the pole saw after consuming alcohol or drugs, or if
feeling tired or ill.
Never attempt to modify the attachment.
Follow the regulations about handling of pole saws and chain
saws in your country.
Personal protective equipment
Wear safety helmet, protective goggles and protective gloves to
protect yourself from flying debris or falling objects. (Fig. 2)
Wear ear protection such as ear muffs to prevent hearing loss.
Wear proper clothing and shoes for safe operation, such as
a work overall and sturdy, non-slip shoes. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
When handling the saw chain or adjusting the chain tension, wear
protective gloves. Saw chain can cut bare hands severely.
Work area safety
Danger: Keep the pole saw at least 15 m away from electric
lines and communication cables (including any branches
contacting them). Touching or approaching high-voltage lines with
the pole saw can result in death or serious injury. Watch power
lines and electrical fences around the work area before starting
operation.
Operate the pole saw under good visibility and daylight conditions
only. Do not operate the pole saw in darkness or fog.
Start and operate the engine only outdoors in a well ventilated
area. Operation in a confined or poorly ventilated area can result
in death due to suffocation or carbon monoxide poisoning.
During operation, never stand on an unstable or slippery surface
or a steep slope. During the cold season, beware of ice and snow
and always ensure secure footing.
During operation, keep bystanders or animals at least 15 m
away from the pole saw. Stop the motor as soon as someone
approaches.
Before operation, examine the work area for wire fences, walls,
or other solid objects. They can damage the saw chain.
WARNING: Use of this product can create dust containing
chemicals which may cause respiratory or other illnesses.
Some examples of these chemicals are compounds found in
pesticides, insecticides, fertilizers and herbicides.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often
you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved
safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Putting into operation
Before assembling or adjusting the equipment, switch off the
motor and remove the spark plug cap or the battery cartridge.
Before handling the saw chain or adjusting the chain tension,
wear protective gloves.
Before starting the motor, inspect the equipment for damages,
loose screws/nuts or improper assembly. Sharpen blunt saw
chain. If the saw chain is bent or damaged, replace it. Check all
control levers and switches for easy action. Clean and dry the
handles.
Never attempt to start the motor if the equipment is damaged or
not fully assembled. Otherwise serious injury may result.
Adjust the shoulder harness and hand grip to suit the operator's
body size.
Adjust the chain tension properly. Refill the chain oil, if necessary.

Starting motor

Wear the personal protective equipments before starting the motor.
Start the engine at least 3 meters (10 feet) away from the fueling
spot.
Before starting the motor, make sure that there is no person or
animal in the work area.
When starting the engine or inserting a battery cartridge, keep
the saw chain and guide bar clear of your body and other object,
including the ground. The saw chain may move when starting
and may cause serious injury or damage to the saw chain and/or
property.
Place the equipment on firm ground. Maintain good balance and
secure footing.
When pulling the starter knob, hold the power unit firmly against
the ground by your left hand. Never step on the drive shaft of the
power unit. (Fig. 3)
Follow the instruction manual of the power unit for starting the
motor.
Check that there is sufficient difference between idling and
engagement speed to ensure that the attachment is at a standstill
while the engine is idling (if necessary reduce idling speed).
If the saw chain moves at idle, stop the engine and adjust the idle
speed down.
Operation
In the event of an emergency, switch off the motor immediately.
If you feel any unusual condition (e.g. noise, vibration) during
operation, switch off the motor. Do not use the equipment until
the cause is recognized and solved.
The saw chain continues to move for a short period after
releasing the throttle trigger or switch off the motor. Don't rush to
contact the saw chain.
With the engine running only at idle, attach the shoulder harness.
During operation, use the shoulder harness. Keep the equipment
on your right side firmly. (Fig. 4)
Hold the front handle with the left hand and the rear grip with the
right hand, no matter you are right-hander or left-hander. Wrap
your fingers and thumbs around the handles.
Never attempt to operate the equipment with one hand. Loss of
control may result in serious or fatal injury. To reduce the risk of
injury, keep your hands and feet away from the blades.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
Watch for hidden obstacles such as tree stumps, roots and
ditches to avoid stumbling. Clear fallen branches and other
objects away.
