1.Grip the handles firmly with both hands using your whole hand. Place your feet slightly apart (slightly further apart than the width of your shoulders) so that your weight is distributed evenly across both legs, and always be sure to maintain a steady, even posture while working.
2.Maintain the speed of the engine at the level required to perform cutting work, and never raise the speed of the engine above the level necessary.
3.Never operate the pruner at an angle greater than 60° in order to reduce the risk of being struck by falling objects during operation.
