IDENTIFICATION OF SAFETY SYMBOLS

DANGER: To prevent electrocution, do not use near electrical wires or power lines. Keep pruner at least 30 feet (10 meters) away from all power lines.

DANGER: Falling objects can cause severe head injury. Wear head protection when operating this unit. Do not stand beneath branch being cut.

WARNING: Avoid kickback which can result in serious injury. Kickback is the back- ward, upward or sudden forward motion of the guide bar occurring when the chain near the upper tip of the guide bar contacts any object such as a log or branch, or when the wood closes in and pinches the chain in the cut. Contacting a foreign object in the wood can also result in loss of control.

WARNING: Do not operate pruner from a ladder or unstable support. Always cut with both feet on solid ground to prevent being pulled off balance.

WARNING: This unit can be dangerous! Careless or improper use can cause serious injury.

Read the operator’s manual before use. Failure to follow instructions could result in serious injury. Save operator’s manual.

Wear protective gear. Always use steel-toed safety footwear with non-slip soles; snug-fit- ting clothing; heavy, long pants, and long sleeves; heavy-duty, non-slip gloves; eye protec- tion marked Z87 such as non-fogging, vented goggles or face screen; an approved safety hard hat; and sound barriers (ear plugs or mufflers) to protect your hearing. Regular users should have hearing checked regularly as engine noise can damage hearing. Always use shoulder strap when operating unit.
