During the actual shaking process, you
should grip the machine differently
because of the intense vibrations
transmitted to the handles, especially to
the handle hose on the shaft itself.
When accelerating the engine in order to
apply the shaking motion after the hook
has been positioned on the stem or
branch, always hold the power tool only
with your right hand loosely on the
control handle, keeping your left hand
free of the shaft. When the shaking
application is complete, let the power
tool return to idle before putting your left
hand back on the shaft and repositioning
the hook. (See also the vibration
warnings in the "Vibrations" and
"Operating Instructions" sections of
these safety precautions.)

Warning!
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. Special care

difficult, overgrown terrain. Watch out for
hidden obstacles such as tree stumps,
roots and ditches to avoid stumbling. Be
extremely cautious when working on
slopes or uneven ground.

To reduce the risk of injury from loss of
control, never work on a ladder, in a tree
