5. For safe operation

■TRANSPORTATION

1.Never transport the pruner nor set it down with the engine running. An engine that's running could be accidently accelerated causing the chain to rotate.

2.Make sure the scabbard is in place when transporting the pruner.

3.When carrying by hand, the chain should be pointing backward.

4.Never transport the product over rough roads over long distances by vehicle without removing all fuel from the fuel tank. If doing so, fuel might leak from the tank during transport.

■ KICKBACK AND PINCHING SAFETY

PRECAUTIONS Beware of kickback!

Kickback can occur whenever the tip of the guide bar touches an object while the saw is operating. Kickback may force the bar up and back toward the operator with lightning-like speed!

Beware of pinching.

Pinching the saw along the tip of the guide bar may force the bar back rapidly toward the operator. Pinching can occur whenever wood closes in around the moving chain.

WARNING

Both kickback and pinching may cause you to lose control of the pole pruner which could result in serious personal injury. Do not rely exclusively on the safety device built into the pruner! You must take several steps to keep your jobs free from accident or injury:

1.Understand kickback and pinching! You can reduce or eliminate the element of surprise. Sudden surprises contributes to accidents.

2.Keep a firm grip on the pole pruner with both hands whenever the engine is running. A firm grip will help you reduce the affects of kickback and pinching as well as maintain control of the machine.

3.Make sure the area in which you are cutting is free from obstructions. Do not let the nose of the guide bar contact a log, branch, or any other obstructions which could be hit while you operation the pole pruner.

4.Cut at high engine speeds.

5.Follow the manufacturer's instructions for
