•
Whenever possible position yourself so that you can
make the cut at right angles to the branch.
•
Do not work with the shaft held straight out in front of
you (like a fishing rod) as this increases the apparent
weight of the cutting attachment.
•
Cut large branches in sections so that you have
better control over where they fall.
•
Never cut through the swelling at the root of the
branch as this will slow down healing and increase
the risk of fungal attack!
•
Use the stop at the base of the cutting head to
provide support during cutting. This will help prevent
the cutting attachment from "jumping" on the branch.

•
Make an initial cut on the underside of the branch
before cutting through the branch. This will prevent
tearing of the bark, which could lead to slow healing
and cause permanent damage to the tree. The
cut should not be deeper than 1/3 of the branch
thickness to prevent jamming. Keep the chain
running while you withdraw the cutting attachment
from the branch to prevent it jamming.
•
Use the harness to support the weight of the
machine and make it easier to handle.
•
Make sure you have a firm footing and that you can
work without being hampered by branches, stones
and trees.
WARNING:
