Kickback Precautions

6.Always plan carefully where a tree limb will fall to avoid damage to property and/or personal injury.

7.Never stand directly beneath the limb you are cutting. Always stand well off to the side.

8.Do not use the Polesaw/Pruner to cut anything except tree limbs and brush.

9.Always maintain a firm grip on the Polesaw/Pruner with both hands.

10.Branch trimming is a dangerous activity. The use of this Polesaw/Pruner requires that you be in good physical condition, and with good balance and coordination. If you are in doubt about the safety issues involved, have a qualified, certified, arborist/tree surgeon do the work for you.

11.Always keep hand, fingers, and body a safe distance away from the moving Chain.

12.Do not use the Polesaw/Pruner if the Chain is dull.

13.Make sure the wood being cut does not contain foreign materials such as nails, spikes, etc.

14. WARNING! Ladders are inherently dangerous. NEVER use a ladder when using the Polesaw/Pruner.

15. WARNING! Stay clear of engine components which will be hot during and after operation.

1.Kickback is a dangerous reaction that can lead to serious injury. Kickback may occur when the moving Chain contacts an object at the upper portion of the tip of the Guide Bar or when the wood closes in and pinches the Saw Chain in the cut.

Contact at the upper portion of the tip of the Guide Bar can cause the Chain to dig into the wood and stop the Chain for an instant. The result is a quick, reverse reaction which kicks the Guide Bar up and back toward the operator. If the Chain is pinched along the top of the Guide Bar, the Guide Bar can be driven rapidly back toward the operator. Either of these reactions can cause loss of Polesaw/Pruner control which can result in serious injury.

Do not rely only upon the safety devices built into the Polesaw/Pruner. As an operator, you should take several steps to keep the cutting job free from accident or injury:
