ELECTRICAL SAFETY (applies to all attachments)
WARNING:
Avoid a dangerous environment. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not use in rain,
in damp or wet locations, or around swimming pools, hot tubs, etc. Do not expose to snow, rain, or water to avoid the possibility of electri- cal shock. Do not use on wet surfaces. Do not handle extension cord plug or unit with wet hands. Avoid dangerous situations. Do not
use in the presence of flammable liquids or gases to avoid creating a fire or explosion and/or causing damage to unit. Do not abuse cord. Never carry the unit by the extension cord or yank extension cord to disconnect unit. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord. Do not use cord as a handle, close a door on
cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or cor- ners. Turn off all controls before unplugging. Do not expose cords to heat, oil, or water. Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If unit is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into wa- ter, return it to your authorized service dealer for repair. Unplug the unit from the power source when not in use, before servicing, and when changing accessories and/or attach-
ments. Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair and anything that may re- duce air flow.
S Use a voltage supply as shown on unit.
SAvoid dangerous environments. Do not use in unventilated areas or where dust or ex-
plosive vapors can build up.
STo reduce the risk of electrical shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other) and will require the use of a polarized extension cord. The ap- pliance plug will fit into a polarized exten- sion cord only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the extension cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain a correct polarized extension cord. A polar- ized extension cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. This plug will fit into the polarized wall outlet only one way. If plug does not fit fully into the wall outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a quali- fied electrician to install the proper wall out-
let. Do not change the equipment plug, ex- tension cord receptacle, or extension cord plug in any way.

able having
SStop the motor immediately if you are ap- proached.
DOUBLE INSULATION CONSTRUCTION
This unit is double insulated to help protect against electric shock. Double insulation construction consists of two separate ???layers??? of electrical insulation instead of grounding. Tools built with this insulation system are not intended to be grounded. No grounding means is provided on this unit, nor should a means of grounding be added to this unit. As a result, the extension cord used with your unit
can be plugged into any standard 120 volt electrical outlet. Safety precautions must be observed when operating any electrical tool. The double insulation system only provides added protection against injury resulting from an internal electrical insulation failure.
WARNING:
All electrical repairs to this unit, including hous- ing, switch, motor, etc., must be diagnosed and repaired by qualified service personnel. Re- placement parts for a double insulated ap- pliance must be recommended by the manufac- turer. A double insulated appliance is marked with the words ???double insulation??? or ???double in- sulated???. The symbol (square within a square)
may also be marked on the appliance. Fail-
ure to have the unit repaired by qualified service personnel can cause the double insulation construction to become ineffective and result in serious injury.
PRUNER SAFETY
SDo not operate a pruner with one hand. Seri- ous injury to the operator, helpers, bystanders or any combination of these persons may re- sult from
SKeep all parts of your body away from the chain when unit is running.
SDo not operate pruner from a ladder or in a tree.
SDo not use a pruner to cut down trees or any portion of the tree trunk.
S Only use for pruning limbs or branches
overhead not greater than 6 inches (15 cm) in diameter.
SNever stand under the limb you are pruning. Always position yourself out of the path of falling debris.
SDo not cut small brush and saplings with the pruner. Slender matter may catch in the
chain and be whipped toward you, pulling you off balance.
S Make sure the chain will not make contact
with any object while starting the unit. Never try to start the unit when the guide bar is in a cut.
S Do not force pruner. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was intended.
SDo not put pressure on the pruner at the end of the cut. Applying pressure can cause you
to lose control when the cut is completed. S Do not run the unit at high speed when not
pruning.
SUse the right tool, cut wood only. Don???t use pruner for purpose not intended; for example, don???t use pruner for cutting plastic, masonry,
SIf you strike or become entangled with a for- eign object, stop the unit immediately and check for damage. Have any damage re- paired by an authorized service dealer be- fore attempting further operations.
SDo not operate a pruner that is damaged, improperly adjusted, or not completely and securely assembled. Always replace bar and chain immediately if it becomes dam-
aged, broken or is otherwise removed.
SAlways stop the unit when work is delayed or when walking from one cutting location to another. Stop the motor and make sure chain has stopped moving before setting the unit
down.
SInspect cords periodically and if damaged, have repaired by an authorized service
dealer.
S Use only in daylight or good artificial light.
KICKBACK
WARNING: Avoid kickback which can result in serious injury. Kickback is the backward, 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.
S Rotational Kickback can occur when the
moving chain contacts an object at the upper tip of the guide bar. This contact can cause the chain to dig into the object, which stops the chain for an instant. The result is a light-
ning fast, reverse reaction which kicks the guide bar up and back toward the operator.

S
direction of the chain rotation. The pruner is driven straight back toward the operator.
S
REDUCE THE CHANCE OF
KICKBACK
SRecognize that kickback can happen. With a basic understanding of kickback, you can reduce the element of surprise which con- tributes to accidents.
S Never let the moving chain contact any ob- ject at the tip of the guide bar.
SKeep 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. S Keep your chain sharp and properly ten- sioned. 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, but never with the motor running. Make sure the bar clamp nut is se- curely tightened after tensioning the chain.
S Begin and continue cutting at full speed. If the chain is moving at a slower speed, there is greater chance of kickback occurring.
S Cut one branch at a time.
SUse extreme caution when
S Do not attempt cuts starting with the tip of the bar (plunge cuts).
S Watch for shifting of wood or other forces that could close a cut and pinch or fall into chain.
SUse the
MAINTAIN CONTROL
SKeep a good, firm grip on the pruner with both hands when the unit is running and don???t let go. A firm grip will help you reduce kickback and maintain control. Keep the fin- gers of your left hand encircling and your left thumb under the assist handle. Keep your right hand completely around the trig-
ger handle whether your are right handed or left handed.
SStand with your weight evenly balanced on both feet.
SStand 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
WARNING: The following features are included on your pruner to help reduce the hazard of kickback; however, such features
will not totally eliminate this danger. As a pruner user, do not rely only on safety de- vices. You must follow all safety precautions, instructions, and maintenance in this manual to help avoid kickback and other forces which can result in serious injury.

GUIDE BAR AND CHAIN OIL
The bar and chain require lubrication. The chain oiler provides continuous lubrication to the chain and guide bar. Lack of oil will quickly ruin the bar and chain. Too little oil will cause overheating shown by smoke coming from the chain and/or discoloration of the bar. The oil output is auto- matically metered during operation. Always fill the bar oil tank before and during use as needed (capacity = 4.6 fl. oz.).
Genuine Poulan bar and chain oil is recom- mended to protect your unit against exces- sive wear from heat and friction. Poulan oil resists high temperature thinning.
If Poulan bar and chain oil is not available, use a good grade SAE 30 oil.
SNever use waste oil for bar and chain lubri- cation.
SAlways stop the unit before removing the oil cap.
WARNING: Always stop unit and dis- connect from power source before removing or installing attachments.

DANGER: Do not extend arms above shoulders while pruning. Do not stand be- neath branch being cut.
WARNING: Always wear head, eye, hearing, foot and body protection to reduce the risk of injury when operating this unit.
When operating unit, clip shoulder strap onto clamp, stand as shown and check for the fol-
lowing:
SExtend your left arm and hold assist handle with your left hand.
SHold trigger handle with your right hand with finger on trigger switch.
S Keep motor end below waist level.
SKeep shoulder strap pad centered on your left shoulder and danger sign centered on
your back.
S Maintain full weight of tool on your left
shoulder.
Always release the trigger switch as soon as the cut is completed, allowing the motor to stop. Keep the cord away from the cutting area. Position cord so it will not be caught on branches and the like during cutting.
PRUNING
WARNING: Be alert for and guard against kickback. Do not allow the moving chain to contact any other branches or ob-
jects at the nose of the guide bar when prun- ing. Allowing such contact can result in seri- ous injury.
IMPORTANT POINTS
SWork slowly, keeping both hands firmly gripped on the pruner. Maintain secure
footing and balance.
SPlan cut carefully. Check direction branch will fall.
SWatch out for springpoles. Springpoles are small size limbs which can catch the chain and whip toward you or pull you off balance. Use extreme caution when cutting small
size limbs or slender material.
SWatch out for branches immediately behind the branch being pruned. If the chain hits
the rear branch, damage to the unit may oc- cur.
SBe alert for springback. Watch out for branches that are bent or under pressure. Avoid being struck by the branch or the pruner when the tension in the wood fi- bers is released.
SKeep a clear work area. Frequently clear branches out of the way to avoid tripping over them.
SLong branches should be removed in several pieces.
PRUNING TECHNIQUE
When ready to cut, squeeze trigger switch and allow unit to reach full speed. Apply a light cutting pressure. DO NOT use back and forth sawing action.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR
TRIMMER ATTACHMENT
OPERATING POSITION
ALWAYS WEAR:
Eye Protection
Long Pants
Heavy Shoes
Cut from your right to your left.
WARNING: Always wear eye protec- tion. Never lean over the trimmer head.
Rocks or debris can ricochet or be thrown into eyes and face and cause blindness or other serious injury.
When operating unit, stand as shown and check for the following:
S Wear eye protection and heavy clothing.
SHold trigger handle with right hand and as- sist handle with left hand.
S Keep unit below waist level.
SCut from your right to your left to ensure de- bris is thrown away from you. Without bend- ing over, keep line near and parallel to the ground and not crowded into material being cut.
TRIMMER LINE ADVANCE
The trimmer line will advance approximately 2 inches (5 cm) each time the bottom of the trimmer head is tapped on the ground with the engine running at full throttle.
The most efficient line length is the maximum length allowed by the line limiter.
Always keep the shield in place when the tool is being operated.
To advance line:
S Operate the engine/motor at full throttle.
SHold the trimmer head parallel to and above the grassy area.
S Tap the bottom of the trimmer head lightly on
the ground one time. Approximately 2 inches (5 cm) of line will be advanced with each tap.
Always tap the trimmer head on a grassy area. Tapping on surfaces such as concrete or as- phalt can cause excessive wear to the trimmer head. If the line is worn down to 2 inches (5 cm) or less, more than one tap will be required to ob- tain the most efficient line length.
WARNING: Use only 0.080??? (2 mm) diameter line. Other sizes of line will not ad-
vance properly and can cause serious injury. Do not use other materials such as wire, string, rope, etc. Wire can break off during cutting and become a dangerous missile that can cause serious injury.
CUTTING METHODS
WARNING: Use minimum speed and do not crowd the line when cutting around hard objects (rock, gravel, fence posts, etc.), which can damage the trimmer head, become entangled in the line, or be thrown causing a serious hazard.
SThe tip of the line does the cutting. You will achieve the best performance and mini- mum line wear by not crowding the line into the cutting area. The right and wrong ways
RightWrong
S The line will easily remove grass and weeds from around walls, fences, trees and flower beds, but it also can cut the tender bark of trees or shrubs and scar fences.
SFor trimming or scalping, use less than full throttle to increase line life and decrease head wear, especially:
S During light duty cutting.
S Near objects around which the line can
wrap such as small posts, trees or fence wire.
SFor mowing or sweeping, use full throttle for a good clean job.
TRIMMING
head about 3 inches (8 cm) above the ground and at an angle. Allow only the tip of the line to make contact. Do not force trimmer line into work area.

BAR MAINTENANCE
If your pruner cuts to one side, has to be forced through the cut, or been run with an im- proper amount of bar lubrication it may be necessary to service your bar. A worn bar will damage your chain and make cutting difficult.
After each use, with unit disconnected from power source, clean all sawdust from the guide bar and sprocket hole.
To maintain guide bar:
S Disconnect pruner from power source.
S Loosen and remove bar clamp nut and chain brake. Remove bar and chain from pruner.
S Clean the oil holes and bar groove after each 5 hours of operation.
Remove Sawdust From
Guide Bar Groove
Oil Holes
S Burring of guide bar rails is a normal process of rail wear. Remove these burrs with a flat file.
SWhen rail top is uneven, use a flat file to re- store square edges and sides.

Improper chain sharpening techniques and/or depth gauge maintenance will increase the chance of kickback which can result in serious
injury.Wear protective gloves when handling chain. The chain is sharp and can cut you even when it is not moving.
Conditions which indicate the need for chain sharpening:
SReduction in size of wood chips. The size of the wood chip will decrease as the chain gets duller until it becomes more like a pow- der than a chip. Note that dead or rotted wood will not produce a good chip.
S Saw cuts to one side or at an angle. S Saw has to be forced through the cut.
Tools required:
S 3/16 inch (4,5 mm) diameter round file and
file holder S Flat file
S Depth gauge tool
TO SHARPEN CHAIN:
1.Disconnect pruner from power source.
2.Check chain for proper tension. Adjust chain tension if necessary. See CHECK CHAIN TENSION section.
3.Sharpen cutters.
