OPERATING POLE SAW

Trimming a tree is the process of cutting limbs from

a living tree. Make sure your footing is ﬁrm. Keep

feet apart. Divide your weight evenly on both feet.

Follow directions below to trim a tree.

1. Make ﬁrst cut six inches from tree trunk on

underside of limb. Use top of guide bar to make

this cut. Cut 1/3 through diameter of limb (see

Figure 11).

2. Move two to four inches farther out on limb.

Make second cut from above limb. Continue cut

until you cut limb off.

3. Make third cut as close to tree trunk as possible

on underside of limb stub. Use top of guide bar to

make this cut. Cut 1/3 through diameter of stub.

4. Make fourth cut directly above third cut. Cut

down to meet third cut. This will remove limb

stub.

CUTTING WITH THE POLE SAW

1. Connect Pole Saw to extension cord. Connect

extension cord to power supply.

2. Use both hands to grip Pole Saw. Use only

designated grip areas when operating Pole Saw

(see Figure 9, page 12). Use ﬁ rm grip. Thumbs

and ﬁ ngers must wrap around Pole Saw handle

and pole.

3. Make sure your footing is ﬁrm. Keep feet apart.

Divide your weight evenly on both feet.

4. When ready to make a cut, press in trigger switch

lock-out and squeeze trigger switch (see Figure

10, page 12). This will turn Pole Saw on. Releas-

ing trigger switch will turn Pole Saw off. Make

sure Pole Saw is running at full speed before

starting a cut.

5. When starting a cut, place moving chain against

wood. Hold Pole Saw ﬁ rmly in place to avoid

possible bouncing or skating (sideways move-

ment) of Pole Saw.

6. Guide Pole Saw using light pressure. Do not force

Pole Saw. The motor will overload and can burn

out. It will do the job better and safer at the rate

for which it was intended.

7. Remove Pole Saw from a cut with Pole Saw

running at full speed. Stop Pole Saw by releas-

ing trigger. Make sure chain has stopped before

setting Pole Saw down.
