Cutting with the Pole Saw

2.Use both hands to grip pole saw. Use only designated grip areas when operating pole saw (see Figure 19). Use frm grip. Thumbs and fngers must wrap around pole saw handle and pole.
3.Make sure your footing is firm. Keep feet apart. Divide your weight evenly on both feet.
4.When ready to make a cut, press in trigger lockout and squeeze trigger (see Figure 20). This will turn pole saw on. Releasing trigger will turn pole saw off. Make sure saw is running at full speed before starting a cut.
