!Warning!

Never attempt to operate your power

tool with one hand. Loss of control of the

power tool resulting in serious or fatal

injury may result.

!Warning!

In order to properly control your pole

pruner, always maintain good balance

and a firm foothold. Never work on a

ladder, in a tree or on any other insecure

support. Never hold the machine above

shoulder height. Do not overreach.

When working at a height above 15 feet

(4.5 m) use a lift bucket. For pole pruner

with adjustable shaft, expand the shaft

only as far as necessary for the intended

application.

!Warning!

Special care must be taken in slippery

conditions (wet ground, snow) and in

difficult, overgrown terrain. Watch for

hidden obstacles such as tree stumps,

roots, rocks, holes and ditches to avoid

stumbling. For better footing, clear away

fallen branches, scrub and cuttings. Be

extremely cautious when working on

slopes or uneven ground.

!Warning!

Take extreme care in wet and freezing

weather (rain, snow, ice). Put off the

work when the weather is windy, stormy

or rainfall is heavy.

Working conditions

Operate and start your power tool only

outdoors in a well ventilated area.

Operate it under good visibility and

daylight conditions only. Work carefully.

!Warning!

As soon as the engine is

running, this product

generates toxic exhaust

fumes containing

chemicals, such as

unburned hydrocarbons

(including benzene) and carbon

monoxide, that are known to cause

respiratory problems, cancer, birth

defects, or other reproductive harm.

Some of the gases (e.g. carbon

monoxide) may be colorless and

odorless. To reduce the risk of serious or

fatal injury/illness from inhaling toxic

fumes, never run the machine indoors or

in poorly ventilated locations. If exhaust

fumes become concentrated due to

insufficient ventilation, clear

obstructions from work area to permit

proper ventilation before proceeding

and/or take frequent breaks to allow

fumes to dissipate before they become

concentrated.

!Warning!

Inhalation of certain dusts, especially

organic dusts such as mold or pollen,

can cause susceptible persons to have

an allergic or asthmatic reaction.

Substantial or repeated inhalation of

dust and other airborne contaminants, in

particular those with a smaller particle

size, may cause respiratory or other

illnesses. This includes wood dust,

especially from hardwoods, but also

from some softwoods such as Western

Red Cedar. Control dust at the source

where possible. Use good work

practices, such as always cutting with a

properly sharpened chain (which

produces wood chips rather than fine

dust) and operating the unit so that the

wind or operating process directs any

dust raised by the power tool away from

the operator. Follow the

recommendations of EPA/OSHA/

NIOSH and occupational and trade

associations with respect to dust

(“particulate matter”). When the

inhalation of dust cannot be substantially

controlled, i.e., kept at or near the

ambient (background) level, the

operator and any bystanders should

wear a respirator approved by NIOSH/

MSHA for the type of dust encountered.
