CAUTION! Wear appropriate personal hearing protection during use. Under some
conditions and durations of use, noise from this product may contribute to hearing loss.
Avoid Dangerous Environment – Don’t use appliances in damp or wet
locations.
Keep Children Away - All visitors should be kept at a distance away from work
area.
Dress Properly - Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught in
moving parts. Use of rubber gloves and substantial footwear is recommended
when working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
Use Safety Glasses - Always use face or dust mask if operation is dusty.
Use Right Appliance - Do not use appliance for any job except that for which it
is intended.
Don’t Force Appliance - It will do the job better and with less likelihood of a risk
of injury at the rate for which it was designed.
Don’t Overreach - Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
Stay Alert - Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate
appliance when you are tired.
Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain. Do not remove cut
material or hold material to be cut when blades are moving. Make sure the switch
is off when clearing jammed material. Saw chain continues to move after the
switch is turned off. A moment of inattention while operating the pole pruner may
result in serious personal injury.
Carry the pole pruner by the handle with the saw chain stopped. When
transporting or storing the pole pruner, always t the saw chain device cover.
Proper handling of the pole pruner will reduce possible personal injury from the
saw chain.
Hold the pole pruner by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the saw
chain may contact hidden wiring. A saw chain contacting a “live” wire may make
exposed metal parts of the pole pruner “live” and could give the operator an
electric shock.
Do not use the pole pruner in bad weather conditions, especially when
there is a risk of lightning. This decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.
To reduce the risk of electrocution, never use near any electrical power
lines. Contact with or use near power lines may cause serious injury or electric
shock resulting in death.
