15m (50ft)
WARNING
This power tool has a large range. In
order to reduce the risk of personal or
even fatal injury to bystanders from
falling objects or inadvertent contact with
the moving chain of your power tool
always keep bystanders at least 50 feet
(15 m) away when the power tool is
running.
Electricity can jump from one point to
another by means of arcing. Higher
voltage increases the distance electricity
can arc. Electricity can also move
through branches, especially if they are
wet. Maintain a clearance of at least
50 feet (15 m) between the pole pruner
(including any branches it is contacting)
and any electrical line carrying live
current. Before working with less
clearance, contact your electric utility
and make sure the current is turned off.
Hold the power tool by insulated
gripping surfaces only, because the saw
chain may contact hidden wiring. Saw
chains contacting a "live" wire may make

exposed metal parts of the power tool
"live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
WARNING
Use of this product (including
sharpening the saw chain) can generate
dust, mist and fumes containing
chemicals that are known to cause
respiratory problems, cancer, birth
defects, or other reproductive harm. If
you are unfamiliar with the risks
associated with the particular dust, mist
or fume at issue, consult your employer,
governmental agencies such as OSHA
and NIOSH and other sources on
hazardous materials. California and
some other authorities, for instance,
have published lists of substances
known to cause cancer, reproductive
toxicity, etc.
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 (such as saw
dust), mists (such as oil mist from chain
lubrication) and fumes 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.
WARNING
Breathing asbestos dust is dangerous
and can cause severe or fatal injury,
respiratory illness or cancer. The use
and disposal of asbestos-containing
products have been strictly regulated by
OSHA and the Environmental Protection
Agency. If you have any reason to
believe that you might be cutting
asbestos, immediately stop cutting and
contact your employer or a local OSHA
representative.
Operating Instructions
In the event of an emergency, switch off
the motor immediately, move the
retaining latch to ƒ and remove the
battery.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of cut injuries, keep
hands and feet away from the saw
chain. Never touch a moving chain with
your hand or any other part of your body.
The saw chain continues to move for a
short period after the trigger switch is
fully released.
