WARNING:

use can cause serious injury.

Read the operator’s manual before use. Failure to follow instructions

could result in serious injury. Save operator’s manual.

DANGER:

Falling objects can cause severe

head injury. Wear head protection when operating

To prevent electrocution, do

not use near electrical wires or power lines. Keep

pruner at least 30 feet (10 meters) away from all

WARNING:

Avoid kickback which can result in serious injury. Kickback is the back-

ward, upward or sudden forward motion of the guide bar occurring when the chain near the

upper tip of the guide bar contacts any object such as a log or branch, or when the wood

closes in and pinches the chain in the cut. Contacting a foreign object in the wood can also

result in loss of control.

WARNING:

Do not operate pruner from a ladder

or unstable support. Always cut with both feet on solid

ground to prevent being pulled off balance.

DANGER:

Use only specified trimmer

head, spool, and 0.080 inch (2 mm) recommended

trimmer line. Never use blades, flailing devices,

wire, rope, string, etc. This attachment is designed

for line trimmer use only. Failure to follow these

instructions may result in serious injury.
