Description
Long-reach chain saws are hydraulically powered cutting
tools intended for general tree trimming from the ground
or from an aerial device.
Greenlee Utility’s patented Super Spool™ design allows
the tool to be used with either open-center or closed-
center hydraulic systems. The dielectric properties of the
berglass pole reduce the chance of electric shock when
the saw is used near energized electrical lines. Other
features include an anti-kickback chain, a fully covered
sprocket guard, a hand-stop safety collar, a trigger inter-
lock and a trigger guard.
Super Spool is protected by U.S. Patent No. 4,548,229.

Kickback
Kickback is much more hazardous than pull-in or push-
back. When kickback happens, the entire saw may
rotate suddenly and forcefully. The bar of the saw may
quickly travel upward and back, toward the operator.
Kickback can occur when the blade at the guide bar
tip contacts anything while the chain is rotating. Some
causes for kickback are:
• using the guide bar tip for cutting.
• contacting a nail or other metal object when cutting.
• accidental contact when cutting more than one
branch at a time.

Chain Saw Basics
This section introduces some basic principles of chain
saw use: Hazard Prevention, Compression and Tension.
HAZARD PREVENTION
The cutting action of this chain saw is performed by a
chain-type blade driven at high speed by a powerful
hydraulic motor. When used carefully and properly, the
chain saw is a highly effective cutting tool.
When used improperly, or when anything interferes with
the normal rotation of the blade, the operator could
very suddenly and very quickly lose control of the saw.
Such loss of control can result in harm to the operator.
The three terms that describe loss of control are pull-in,
push-back, and kickback.
Pull-In
Pull-in can occur when the blade at the bottom of the
bar is doing the cutting. If the blade is suddenly pinched
in the cut, or if it contacts a foreign object such as a
nail, the saw may be suddenly and forcefully pulled
away from the operator.
Pull-In
PULL
Push-Back
Push-back can occur when the blade at the top of the
bar is doing the cutting. If the blade is suddenly pinched
in the cut, or if it contacts a foreign object such as a
nail, the saw will be suddenly and forcefully pushed
back toward the operator.
