Safety Manual

ENGLISH
• NEVER operate
a Power Pruner
Attachment while on
a ladder, in a tree, or
on slippery or unstable
surfaces.
• ALWAYS make sure
that the pruned tree
branch or limb can fall
safely to the ground
after cutting.
• NEVER stand under
a tree limb or branch
during cutting
• ALWAYS keep guide
bar cover on guide bar
until unit is ready to be used.
• ALWAYS keep chain properly tensioned
• NEVER make guide bar/saw chain adjustments while unit is running. Stop
engine and disconnect spark plug lead before tensioning chain.
• ALWAYS keep saw chain sharp. Dull chain will cause increased vibration
and premature guide bar and chain failure.
• ALWAYS use only to cut wood. Cutting any other type of material can
cause increased risk of kickback and damage to saw chain and guide bar.
• ALWAYS stop engine immediately and check chain and guide bar for
damage if the cutting attachment strikes an obstacle during cutting.
• NEVER use a saw chain with missing or damaged teeth. Excessive
vibration and erratic operation can cause chain failure and serious injury.
