2 READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS SAFET Y I NSTRUCTI ONS W ARNING: Some dust created by using power tools contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
3 basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of re, electric shock, and personal injury , including the following: T o reduce risk of injury: Before any use, be sure everyone using this electric product reads and understands all safety and operation instructions contained in this manual.
4 and when changing accessories and attachments such as saw chain and guide bar . ST A Y ALERT - W atch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate the tool when you are tired. KEEP ALL P ARTS of the body away from the saw chain when the motor is operating.
5 towards the operator . Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may push the guide bar rapidly back towards the operator . Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control of the saw which could result in serious injury to user .
6 tooth or teeth for use when pruning to pivot the saw and maintain position while sawing. Switch – A device that when operated will complete or interrupt an electrical power circuit to the motor of the pole saw . Switch Lockout – A moveable stop that prevents the unintentional operation of the switch until manually actuated.
7 Figure 4 Rotate the socket head screw on the front of the saw head clockwise to take up the slack in the chain. (see gure 2 from previous step) Replace the sprocket cover , bar clamp and socket head screws in that order . Adjust the tension on the chain before use.
8 Figure 6 2. Insert the male end of the power handle interface into the female socket in the end of the extension pole making sure that it is rmly seated. (see gure 7) The interface is keyed so that it will only go together one way . The handle and pole should go together easily .
9 Figure 10 CAUTION: The saw head has safety features that prevent attaching it directly to the power handle without the pole in between. Do not attempt to defeat these safety features and attach the saw head directly to the power handle. Doing so could result in severe personal injury .
10 Figure 14 3. While holding the switch lockout under your thumb in the forward position, use your ngers to pull upward on the control trigger . (see gure 15) This will energize the saw and allow you to do your work. It is NOT necessary to keep pressure on the thumb switch after the tool has started.
11 length with the pole saw standing vertically . The top section of the pole could descend rapidly and pinch your hand. PIVOTING THE SA W HEAD The pole is designed to pivot at the top end to allow the saw head to contact branches in the most advantageous position.
12 Then make the nal cut from the top of the branch using the bottom side of the chain. (see gure 20) Figure 2 0 Making the initial cut on the underside of the branch will prevent the branch from splintering when it falls away from the tree. Never try to cut the branch completely from the underside.
13 ST OR AGE TEMPERA TURE – T emperature extremes limit the useful life of the battery . The best storage place is one that is cool and dry . Store the tool away from direct sunlight, heating pipes, furnaces, etc. Do not store where temperatures go below +40 F or above +120 F .
