aromatic oils such as pine and lemon, and by solvents
such as kerosene.
Storage
m
WARNING!
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline,
petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in
contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken, or
destroy plastic which may result in serious personal injury.
1. Stop the motor and remove the battery.
2. Clean the pole chain saw thoroughly before storing.
3. Always place the bar sheath on the chain bar before
storing or transporting the pole chain saw. Use caution to
avoid the sharp teeth of the blade and the chain.
4. Store the pole chain saw indoors, in a dry place that is
inaccessible to children. Keep away from corrosive agents
such as garden chemicals and de-icing salts.
5. We recommend using the original package for storage or
covering the product with a suitable cloth or enclosure to
protect it against dust.
Specific Safety Warnings
for Pole Chain Saw
1. Only the pole chain saw operator should be in the
work area.
2. Do not use the pole chain saw to cut down trees.
3. Always use two hands when operating the pole chain saw.
Grip the pole chain saw securely with one hand on the
trigger and the other hand on the pole.
4. Before starting the pole chain saw, make sure that the
saw chain is not in contact with any object.
5. Do not allow the pole chain saw to make contact with
grounded objects such as pipes, fences, and metal posts.
6. Do not force the pole chain saw while cutting. Apply light
pressure. It will perform more effectively and safely if it is
used at the rate for which it was designed.
7. Use extreme caution when cutting a limb that is under
tension. When wood tension is released, the limb could
spring back and strike the operator, causing severe injury
or death.
8. During transport, hold the pole at its balance point, with
the guide bar and chain facing to the rear.
9. Do not cut small brush and saplings with the pole chain
saw. Small branches may catch in the chain and be
whipped towards the operator, which could pull the
operator off balance.
10. Never stand directly under the limb you are trimming.
Always position yourself outside the path of falling debris.
11. Keep a firm, steady pressure on the pole chain saw while
cutting. Do not try to cut limbs larger in diameter than the
length of the guide bar.
12. Keep other people and pets away from the cutting end of
the pole chain saw and at a safe distance away from the
work area.
Kickback
m
WARNING
! Kickback may occur when the nose or tip
of the guide bar touches an object, or when the wood closes
in and pinches the saw chain in the cut.
AVOID CONTACTING THE GUIDE BAR TIP WITH ANY
OBJECT. In some cases, when the tip makes contact with an
object, it may cause a fast reverse reaction, kicking the guide
bar up and back towards the operator. Pinching the saw chain
along the top of the guide bar may also push the guide bar
rapidly back towards the operator. Either of these reactions
may cause you to lose control of the pole chain saw, which
could result in serious personal injury.
• Kickback safety devices on this pole chain saw include
a skip chain and a low kickback guide bar. These will
reduce, but not entirely prevent, kickbacks. Follow the
necessary precautions indicated in this operator's manual
to avoid kickbacks.
• Always use two hands when operating the pole chain saw,
one hand gripping the trigger and the other hand gripping
the pole. Use a firm grip. Thumbs and fingers must wrap
around the trigger and the pole.
• Keep all guards in place on the pole chain saw. Make sure
they are in proper working order.
• Do not overreach or extend arms above shoulder height.
• Keep solid footing and balance at all times.
• Never try cutting through two branches at the same time.
Only cut one at a time.
• Do not bury the guide bar nose or try to cut by boring the
guide bar nose into the wood.
• Watch for shifting of wood or other forces that may pinch
the chain.
• Use extreme caution when re-entering a previous cut.
• Use the low-kickback chain and guide bar supplied with
this pole chain saw. Only use genuine Snow Joe
Sun Joe
replacement parts designed specifically for use
®
with this pole chain saw.
• Never use a dull or loose chain. Keep the chain sharp and
properly tensioned.
