SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Follow sharpening and maintenance instructions for the saw chain in

your Operator’s Manual. Do not resharpen saw blades.

• Use only replacement guide bars, saw chains or blades specified by

the manufacturer.

• Do not over reach.

• Do not operate the unit if you are fatigued, or under the influence of

alcohol, medication or any substance that can affect your vision,
dexterity or judgment. You must be in good physical and mental
health to operate a pole saw safely.

• Never operate your pole saw unit without its proper guards, shields,

and protective devices in place. Check to make sure before operating.

• Do not operate a unit in disrepair, or with damaged or missing parts.

Use only genuine ECHO replacement parts. Check that the cutting
attachment, guide bar and saw chain are firmly attached and in safe
operating condition.

• All maintenance specified in your pole saw Operator’s Manual should

be performed by you or an authorized ECHO servicing dealer. Any
service or repair work that the Operator’s Manual does not address
should be done by an authorized ECHO servicing dealer only. For a
dealer near you dial 1-800-432-ECHO (3246).

• Use caution when handling fuel. Move the pole saw at least 3m (10

feet) from the fueling point before starting the engine.

• Do not allow other persons to be near the pole saw when you are

starting or cutting with the saw. Keep bystanders and animals 15m
(50 feet) away from the work area. Do not let anyone hold wood for
you to cut.
