11. Inspect tree before cutting down. Make sure there are no dead limbs or branches that may fall on you.
12. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this saw has a polarized plug ( one blade is wider than the
other )This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet of
your extension cord, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, a polarized extension cord will be necessary.
Do not change the plug in any way.
WHILE OPERATING SAW
Stay alert. Use common sense while operating pole saw.
Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas invite injuries.
Be aware of extension cord while operating pole saw. Be careful not to trip over cord. Keep cord away
from chain and operator at all times.
Keep children, animals, and bystanders away from pole saw and extension cord. Only pole saw user
should be in work area.
Do not cut down a tree unless you are trained or have expert help.
If two or more persons perform bucking and felling operations at the same time, provide plenty of
distance between operations. Provide distance of at least twice the height of tree being felled.
Grip pole saw firmly with both hands Never operate pole saw with one hand. Never use hand guard as
handle.
Keep finger off trigger until ready to make cut.
Before starting pole saw , make sure chain is not touching anything.
To guard against electrical shock, avoid body contact with grounded objects such as pipes, fences, and
metal posts.
Keep all parts of body away from chain when saw is running.
Do not force pole saw while cutting . Apply light pressure. It will do the job better and safer at the rate
for which it was intended.
Cut small brush and saplings with extreme care Slender material may catch in chain and be whipped
toward you. This could also pull you off balance.
When cutting limb or tree trunk that is under tension, use extreme caution . Be alert for wood
springing back. When wood tension is released, limb could spring back and strike operator causing
severe injury or death.
Carry pole saw from one place to another.
With saw stopped and unplugged
By holding front handle ( never use hand guard as handle )

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
extended-reach pruner may result in serious personal injury.
