SAWING TECHNIQUES
• Saw off the lower branches on the tree rst. By doing
so, it is easier for the cut branches to fall to the
ground.
• At the end of the cut, the weight of the saw suddenly
increases for the user since it is no longer being
supported by a branch. There is a risk of losing
control of the saw, so make sure to stay alert during
the entire sawing operation.
• Only pull the saw out of a cut while the saw is
running. By doing so, you prevent the chain from
jamming in the wood.
• Do not saw with the tip of the guide bar. Do not saw
into the branch formations (where the tree branches
outwards). This will impede the tree’s ability to heal.
• For sawing off smaller branches, place the stop face
of the saw on the branch. This prevents unwanted
movements of the saw at the beginning of the cut.
While applying light pressure, guide the saw through
the branch from top to bottom.
• For sawing off larger branches, rst make a relief
cut. Saw through 1/3 of the branch diameter from the
bottom to top using the top side of the guide bar. Then
saw from top to bottom for the other 2/3 using the
bottom side of the guide bar.
• Saw off longer branches in sections in order to
maintain control over the location of impact.
• When working on an incline, always stand above or
to the side of the branch being sawed. Hold the tool
as close as possible to your body. By doing so, you
maximize your balance.
WARNING:
When removing branches, hold the pole saw at an
angle ranging from 0 to 60° in order to avoid being
struck by a falling branch. The saw should never be
operated directly above head.
