„ Keep everyone - helpers, bystanders, children, and animals
- a safe distance from the cutting area. During bucking
operations, keep a minimum distance of 15 feet between
workers.
„ Always cut with both feet on solid ground to prevent being
pulled off balance.
„ Do not cut above chest height, as a saw held higher is
difficult to control against kickback forces.
„ Do not prune branches near electrical wires or buildings.
Leave this operation for professionals.
„ Cut only when visibility and light are adequate for you to
see clearly.
LIMBING
See Figure 11.
WARNING:
Never climb into a tree to limb or prune. Do not stand on
ladders, platforms, a log, or in any position which can
cause you to lose your balance or control of the saw, which
could result in death or other serious personal injury.
Limbing is removing branches from a fallen tree.
„ Work slowly, keeping both hands on the pruning saw with
a firm grip. Always make sure your footing is secure and
your weight is distributed evenly on both feet.
„ Leave the larger support limbs under the tree to keep the
tree off the ground while cutting.
„ Limbs should be cut one at a time. Remove the cut limbs
from the work area often to help keep the work area clean
and safe.
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, always remove the
battery pack from the product when cleaning or perform-
ing any maintenance.
WARNING:
Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to
comply with ANSI Z87.1, along with hearing and head
protection. Failure to do so could result in objects being
thrown into your eyes resulting in possible serious injury.
OPERATION
„ Keep the tree between you and the pruning saw while
limbing. Cut from the side of the tree opposite the branch
you are cutting.
PRUNING
See Figure 12.
Pruning is trimming limbs from a live tree.
„ Work slowly, keeping both hands on the pruning saw with
a firm grip. Always make sure your footing is secure and
your weight is distributed evenly on both feet.
„ Do not cut from a ladder, this is extremely dangerous. Leave
this operation for professionals.
„ Do not cut above chest height as a saw held higher is dif-
ficult to control against kickback.
„ When pruning trees it is important not to make the finish-
ing cut next to the main limb or trunk until you have cut
off the limb further out to reduce the weight. This prevents
stripping the bark from the main member.
WARNING:
If the limbs to be pruned are above chest height, hire a
professional to perform the pruning. Failure to do so could
result in death or serious personal injury.
WARNING:
This tool is not intended to be utilized for under bucking.
Do not cut material with the top of the bar/chain.
