Operation

Electric Shock Hazard:
• When using any 48520 pruner
near energized electrical lines,
use only certified non-conductive
hoses and proper personal protec-
tive equipment.
• Keep the fiberglass extension
of the 48520 clean and dry.
Accumulated oil or dirt reduce the
insulating properties of the tool.
• Do not use any of the LHFS-
210003 pruners near energized
electrical lines.
Failure to observe this warning can
result in severe injury or death.
Skin injection hazard:
• Do not use hands to check for
leaks.
• Do not hold hose or couplers
while the hydraulic system is
pressurized.
• Depressurize the hydraulic system
before servicing.
Oil under pressure easily punc-
tures skin, causing serious injury,
gangrene, or death. If you are
injured by escaping oil, seek medical
attention immediately.
Wear a hard hat when using this
tool.
Failure to observe this warning can
