sion cord to power supply.
2. Use both hands to grip pole saw. Use only
designated grip areas when operating pole

will turn pole saw off. Make sure saw is running
at full speed before stm'ting a cut.

against wood. Hold pole saw firmly in place to
avoid possible bouncing or skating (sideways

ning at full speed. Stop pole saw by releasing
trigger. Make sure chain has stopped beh_re
