chain is suddenly stopped. This sudden

stopping pulls the pruner forward and away

from the operator and could easily cause the

operator to lose control of the pruner.

REDUCE THE CHANCE OF

KICKBACK

Recognize that kickback can happen. With

a basic understanding of kickback, you can

reduce the element of surprise which

contributes to accidents.

Never let the moving chain contact any

object at the tip of the guide bar.

Keep the working area free from

obstructions such as other trees, branches,

rocks, stumps, etc. Eliminate or avoid any

obstruction that your chain could hit while

you are cutting. When cutting a branch, do

not let the guide bar contact branch or other

objects around it.

Keep your chain sharp and properly

tensioned. A loose or dull chain can

increase the chance of kickback occurring.

Follow manufacturer’s chain sharpening

and maintenance instructions. Check

tension at regular intervals with the engine

stopped, never with the engine running.

Make sure the bar clamp nut is securely

tightened after tensioning the chain.

Begin and continue cutting at full speed. If

the chain is moving at a slower speed, there

is greater chance of kickback occurring.

Cut one branch at a time.

Use extreme caution when re-entering a

previous cut.

Do not attempt cuts starting with the tip of

the bar (plunge cuts).

Watch for shifting of wood or other forces that

could close a cut and pinch or fall into chain.

Use the Reduced--Kickback Guide Bar and

Low--Kickback Chain specified for your unit.

MAINTAIN CONTROL

Keep a good, firm grip on the pruner with

both hands when the engine is running and

don’t let go. A firm grip will help you reduce

kickback and maintain control. Keep the

fingers of your left hand encircling and your

left thumb under the assist handle. Keep

your right hand completely around the

throttle handle whether your are right

handed or left handed.

Stand with your weight evenly balanced on

both feet.

Stand slightly to the left side of the pruner to

keep your body from being in a direct line

with the cutting chain.

KICKBACK SAFETY FEATURES

The following features are included on your

pruner to help reduce the hazard of kickback;

however, such features will not totally elimi-

nate this danger. As a pruner user, do not rely

only on safety devices. You must follow all

safety precautions, instructions, and mainte-

nance in this manual to help avoid kickback

and other forces which can result in serious

injury.

SAFETY NOTICE:

Exposure to vibrations

through prolonged use of gasoline powered

hand tools could cause blood vessel or nerve

damage in the fingers, hands, and joints of

people prone to circulation disorders or ab-

normal swellings. Prolonged use in cold

weather has been linked to blood vessel dam-

age in otherwise healthy people. If symptoms

occur such as numbness, pain, loss of

strength, change in skin color or texture, or

loss of feeling in the fingers, hands, or joints,

discontinue the use of this tool and seek med-

ical attention. An anti--vibration system does

not guarantee the avoidance of these prob-

lems. Users who operate power tools on a

continual and regular basis must monitor

closely their physical condition and the condi-

tion of this tool.
