Safety Precautions

•Ensure that the direction of rotation of the saw blade is as prescribed in this manual.

•Cut at the rated operating speeds (gpm).

•Operate the saw at “no load” for 30 seconds in a safe position and ensure there is no excessive vi- bration or other defects detected. If considerable vi- bration or other defects are detected, stop operation of the tool immediately and determine the cause. Do not use the tool until the defect is corrected.

•If the tool is dropped with a saw blade installed, the saw blade should be examined.

•Make sure you’re well rested and mentally alert be- fore operating the saw.

•Do not start cutting until you have a clear work area, secure footing and a planned drop area for falling branches.

•Keep all parts of the body away from the saw during operation.

•Carry the saw with the unit de-energized.

•Do not operate a pole saw that is damaged, improp- erly adjusted or not completely and securely assem- bled. Make sure the saw blade stops moving when the control trigger is released.

•Use extreme caution when cutting small branches. Twigs may catch the saw blade and be whipped to- ward the operator or pull the operator off balance.

•Only use saw blades manufactured by Stanley Hy- draulic Tools. Stanley assumes no responsibility for failure in equipment, accidental damage or acciden- tal injury as a result of the use of saw blades not manufactured by Stanley Hydraulic Tools.

•Always assure the saw blade is sharp. Do not try to use the tool with a dull saw blade.

•Keep the handle dry, clean and free of hydraulic fluid.

•When using tools near energized transmission lines, make sure to use only hoses labeled and certified non-conductive.

•Turn off the power unit or move the hydraulic control valve to neutral before setting the pole saw down.

•Know the location of buried or covered electrical services before starting work.

•To avoid personal injury or equipment damage, all tool repair, maintenance and service must only be performed by authorized and properly trained per- sonnel.
