length with the pole saw standing vertically. The top section of the pole could descend rapidly and pinch your hand.

PIVOTING THE SAW HEAD

The pole is designed to pivot at the top end to allow the saw head to contact branches in the most advantageous position. To pivot the saw head, squeeze the two black buttons at

the top of the pole (only the left side button will actually depress), pivot the saw head to the desired position, and release the buttons to lock the saw head in place. (see figure 18)

PRUNING WITH THE POLE SAW

HOLDING THE POLE SAW – Hold the pole saw firmly with both hands when the motor is running. Use a firm grip with thumb and fingers of one hand encircling the control handle, and the thumb and fingers of the other hand encircling the fiberglass pole. (see figure 19)

Figure 19

USING THE POLE SAW – Always be sure of your footing and hold the pole saw firmly with both hands while the motor is running.

NEVER STAND ON A LADDER – Only operate the pole saw with both feet planted firmly on the ground.

OVERHEAD ELECTRICAL LINES

–Never operate the pole saw within 50 feet of overhead electrical lines. Failure to observe this precaution could result in severe injury.

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 saw which could result in serious injury to user.

To Cut Branches From a Tree:

Make sure the saw is running before attempting to make a cut.

Using light pressure make a cut on the underside of the branch six inches from the trunk using the top side of the chain. This cut should be no deeper than 1/3 the thickness of the branch.
