SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The pole saw’s engine can continue to run when the blade is
jammed. Before attempting to release or free the jam, always switch
the engine off, disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug.
After assuring the blade and engine have stopped, proceed to clear
the jam. Wear gloves while clearing material from the jammed blades.
Never grasp the sharp, exposed cutting blade of the pole saw. If you
contact the cutting blade, serious personal injury may occur.
• Do not misuse the blade or the unit. Never use the unit for anything
other than it was intended. Do not use it as a hammer, lever, or
crowbar.
• To avoid burns, always make sure that the muffler side of the engine
is away from your body.
• Shut off the pole saw immediately if the unit starts to shake or vibrate
excessively. This could be a sign of danger. A part may be broken or
loose.
• After shutting off the engine or motor, keep your fingers and body
away from the cutting attachment until all movement has stopped.
Saw chain or blade will coast to a stop after releasing the throttle.
