3.9 Safety instructions for
the polemounted pruner

3.9.1 Work instructions (01)

■
During pruning, lift the
polemounted pruner (01/1) to
a maximum angle of 60°
(01/2). At a steeper angle, you
inevitably get into the area
where cut-off branches can
fall. Always stand outside this
area.
■
Plan an escape route in ad-
vance for getting out of the
way of falling branches. This
escape route must be free of
obstacles such as sawn-off
branches or slippery places
that could hinder getting out of
the way.
■
Keep a safe distance from
bystanders, animals, objects
or buildings, which is at least
approx. 2.5x the length of the
branch to be sawn off. If that
is not possible, saw the
branch off piece by piece.
■
Do not attempt to saw a
branch that has a diameter
greater than the length of the
chain bar.
■
Avoid moving branches or ob-
jects becoming caught in the
saw chain. In this case, imme-
diately switch off the
polemounted pruner.
