SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
23. Stay Alert. Watch what you are doing. Use
common sense. Do not operate tool when
you are tired.
24. Disconnect Tool. Disconnect the tool from
the power supply when not in use, before
servicing, when changing accessories such
as blades, and the like.
25. Store Idle Tools Indoors. When not in use,
tools should be stored indoors in dry, and
high or locked-up place – out of reach of
children.
26. Maintain Tool with Care. Keep cutting
edges sharp and clean for best performance
and to reduce the risk of injury. Follow
instructions for lubricating and changing
cutting chain. Inspect tool cord periodically,
and if damaged, have it repaired by an
authorized service facility. Inspect extension
cords periodically and replace if damaged.
Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil
and grease.
27. Check Damaged Parts. Before further
use of the tool, a guard or other part that
is damaged should be carefully checked
to determine that it will operate properly
and perform its intended function. Check
for alignment of moving parts, binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting,
and any other condition that may affect its
operation.
A guard or other part that is damaged
should be properly repaired or replaced by
an authorized service center unless indicated
elsewhere in this manual.

KICKBACK
WARNING: Kickback may occur when the nose
or tip of the guide bar touches an object, or
when the wood closes in and pinches the saw
chain in the cut. Tip contact in some cases may
cause a lightning fast reverse reaction, kicking
the guide bar up and back towards the operator.
Pinching the saw chain along the top of the
guide bar may push the guide bar rapidly back
towards the operator. Either of these reactions
may cause you to lose control of the Pole saw
which could result in serious injury.
Kickback Safety Devices On This Pole saw
This pole saw has a skip chain and low kickback
guide bar. Both items reduce the chance of
kickback. Kickback can still occur with this pole
saw.
Always maintain a firm grip using both hands on
the saw handles when holding, using or carrying
the pole saw. Use firm grip. Thumbs and fingers
must wrap around trigger and pole.
Keep all safety items in place on pole saw. Make
sure they work properly.
Do not overreach or extend arms above
shoulder height.
Keep solid footing and balance at all times.
Never try cutting through two branches at the
same time. Only cut one at a time.
Do not bury guide bar nose or try plunge cut
(boring into wood using guide bar nose)
Watch for shifting of wood or other forces that
may pinch chain.
Use extreme caution when re-entering a
previous cut.
Use low-kickback chain and guide bar supplied
with the pole saw. Only use replacement parts
listed for the Pole saw.
Never use dull or loose chain. Keep chain sharp
with proper tension.
