WARNING:
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions.
WARNING:
Always check the chain tension and adjust as
necessary before beginning operation. Refer to Adjusting the
Chain Tension in the Maintenance section.
WARNING:
Make sure the chain oil reservoir is full
before operation. Check the oil level constantly so that it
does not drop below half full. The saw chain must be
continuously coated with oil to function properly.
WARNING:
Always wear appropriate eye, hearing, hand,
foot and body protection to reduce the risk of injury when
operating this unit. Wear head protection. Use a full face
shield when needed. Refer to the Safety section for
appropriate safety equipment information.
WARNING:
Do not use a pole saw to fell a tree. Do not
use a pole saw to limb or buck a fallen tree. Use a chain
saw for these applications.
TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS
Follow all safety instructions. Refer to the Safety section.
Only cut wood and materials made of wood. Do not attempt to
cut sheet metal, plastics, masonry or any other non-wood
materials.
Practice cutting a few small logs before beginning a major
cutting operation. First-time users should practice cutting logs
on a sawhorse or cradle before undertaking other operations.
Do not attempt to cut trees or logs with diameters larger than 6
in. (15.2 cm).
PREPARING THE WORK AREA
Clear the area of children, bystanders and pets; keep them
outside a 50-foot (15 m) radius, at a minimum. Even then, they
are still at risk from thrown objects. Encourage bystanders to
wear eye protection. If you are approached, stop the unit
immediately. When felling, the safe distance is at least twice the
height of the tallest tree in the work area. When bucking, keep
workers at least 15 feet (4.6 m) apart.
Keep the work area clean. Cluttered areas invite injuries. Do not
start cutting until the work area is clear and free from
obstructions. Make sure there is secure footing and a planned
retreat path from falling trees or branches.
Do not cut near electrical cables or power lines. Keep at least 50
feet (15 m) away from all power lines.
Use the unit only in daylight or good artificial light.
