15.1 Positioning and Adjusting the Connecting Cord

WARNING
If using an AR series battery or AP series battery in a battery
bag with connecting cord always use a lift bucket for in-tree
use and maintenance. Do not climb in the tree.
WARNING
Place your left hand on the front handle and your right hand
on the control handle. Left-handers must follow these
instructions too. (See illustration, Chapter @ 6.5.2). One-
handed operation increases the risk of injury. Accordingly, to
reduce the risk of personal injury, run the connecting cord
through the guide on the shoulder strap on the opertor's right
side only. Never run the cord through the guides on the
shoulder strap on the operator's left side.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury from tripping or losing control of
the chain saw, always secure the connecting cord through
the backpack guides and with the hook and eye fasteners as
described below. Position and secure the connecting cord
on your right side and so that it will not interfere with proper
working technique or your ability to maintain control of the
chain saw.
