POLE SAW SAFETY RULES

• Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain. Do not remove cut material or hold material to be cut when blades are moving.
• Make sure the switch is off when clearing jammed material. The Saw chain continues to move after the switch is turned off. A moment of inattention while operating the pole saw may result in serious personal injury.
• Carry the pole saw by the handle with the saw chain stopped. When transporting or storing the pole saw, always fit the saw chain device cover. Proper handling of the pole saw will reduce possible personal injury from the saw chain.
• Hold the pole saw by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the saw chain may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. A saw chain contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the pole saw “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
• Keep cable away from cutting area.
• During operation the cable may be hidden in shrubs and can be accidentally cut by the saw chain. Do not use the pole saw in bad weather conditions, especially when there is a risk of lightning. This decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.
• To reduce the risk of electrocution, never use near any electrical power lines. Contact with or use near power lines may cause serious injury or electric shock resulting in death.
• Always use two hands when operating the pole saw. Hold the pole saw with both hands to avoid loss of control.
• Always use head protection when operating the pole saw overhead. Falling debris can result in serious personal injury.
• Always remove battery pack from your tool when you are assembling parts, making adjustments, cleaning, or when not in use. Removing battery pack will prevent accidental starting that could cause serious personal injury.

CAUTION
When using an cordless pole saw, basic safety precaution should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons.

This Lithium-ion battery pack is equipped with an internal circuit breaker which will automatically shut off the power to the tool and then reset itself once cooled. Follow these steps if an overload occurs while under heavy use:

1. Release the power switch and restart tool by depressing switch.
2. The battery may need to be removed for approximately 1 minute, allowed to cool and then reinstalled for use.

STARTING AND STOPPING (See Figure 7)

TO START THE MOTOR:

• Fit the battery pack into the polesaw.
• Pull the small safety lock button upward using your thumb.
• Squeeze the safety lock button.
• Squeeze the trigger.

TO STOP THE MOTOR:

• Release the trigger.

PREPARATION FOR CUTTING

• Wear non-slip gloves for maximum grip and protection.
• Maintain a proper grip on the unit whenever the motor is running. Use your right hand to firmly grip the rear handle while your left hand has a firm grip on the pole shaft.
• Hold unit firmly with both hands. Always keep your left hand on the pole shaft and your right hand on the rear handle, so your body is to the left of the chain line. Never use a left-handed (cross- handed) grip, or any stance that places your body or arm across the chain line.
• Never stand directly under the limb you are cutting.
• Be certain the collars are fully tightened before operating equipment; check them periodically for tightness during use to avoid serious injury.

BASIC CUTTING PROCEDURE
Follow the steps below to prevent damage to tree or shrub bark. Do not use a back-and-forth sawing motion.

• Make a shallow first cut (1/4 of limb diameter) on the underside of the limb close to the main limb or trunk.
• Make a second cut from the top side of the limb outboard from the first cut. Continue the cutthrough the limb until the limb separates from the tree. Be prepared to balance the weight of the tool when the limb falls.
• Make a final cut close to trunk.

NOTE: For second and final cuts (from top of limb or branch), hold front cutting guide against the limb being cut. This will help steady the limb and make it easier to cut. Allow chain to cut for you; exert only light down-ward pressure. If you force the cut, damage to the bar, chain, or motor can result.

• Release the trigger as soon as the cut is completed. Failure to follow proper cutting procedures will result in the bar and chain binding and becoming pinched or trapped in the limb.
• If this should happen: Stop the motor and remove the battery from the polesaw.
• If the limb can be reached from the ground, lift the limb while holding the saw. This should release the “pinch” and free the saw.
• If the saw is still trapped, call a professional for assistance.

LIMBING AND PRUNING(See Figure 8-9)
This unit is designed for trimming small branches and limbs up to 6 in. (15.2 cm) in diameter. For best results, observe the following precautions:

• Plan the cut carefully. Be aware of the direction in which the branch will fall.
• ranches may fall in unexpected directions. Do not stand directly under the branch being cut.
• The most typical cutting application is to position the unit at an angle of 60° or less, depending on the specific situation. As the angle of the polesaw shaft to ground increases the difficulty of making the first cut (from underside of limb) increases.
• Remove long branches in several stages.
• Cut lower branches first to allow the top branches more room to fall.
• Work slowly, keeping both hands on the saw with a firm grip. Maintain secure footing and balance.
• Keep the tree between you and the chain while limbing. Cut from the side of the tree opposite of the branch you are cutting.
• Do not cut from a ladder; this is extremely dangerous. Leave this operation for professionals.
• Do not make the flush cut next to the main limb or trunk until you have cut off the limb further out to reduce the weight.
• Following proper cutting procedures will prevent stripping the bark from the main member.
• Do not use the polesaw for felling or bucking.
• To prevent electrocution, do not operate within 50 ft. (15 m) of overhead electrical lines.
• Keep bystanders at least 50 ft. (15 m) away.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause product damage.
WARNING
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields during power tool operation or when blowing dust. If operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
WARNING
Before inspecting, cleaning or servicing the unit, stop the motor, wait for all moving parts to stop, and remove the battery. Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious personal injury or property damage.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
WARNING
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken, or destroy plastic, which may result in serious personal injury.
All polesaw service, other than the items listed in the instruction manual maintenance instructions, should be performed by competent polesaw service personnel. (For example, if improper tool is used to hold the flywheel in order to remove the clutch, structural damage to the flywheel could occur and subsequently could cause the flywheel to burst).

ADJUSTING CHAIN TENSION (See figure 10)
Always switch off the machine and remove the battery before checking or adjusting chain tension. Wear protective gloves while handling the chain, bar or areas around the chain.

1. Untighten the side cover lock nuts (1) slightly by turning them counterclockwise. You do not need to remove the side cover (2) in order to adjust the chain tension.
2. To increase the chain tension, turn the chain tensioner adjustment screw (3)clockwise and check the chain tension frequently. To reduce the chain tension, turn the chain tensioner adjustment screw (3) counterclockwise and check the chain tension frequently.
3. Pull the chain in the middle of the lower side of the bar downwards (away from the bar) and measure the distance between the bar and the chain. The chain tension is correct when the gap between the cutter in the chain and the bar is between 3mm-4mm.
4. When chain tension is set correctly, retighten the side cover lock nuts (1).
   NOTE: During normal saw operation, the temperature of the chain increases. The drive links of a correctly tensioned warm chain will hang approximately 1/16 in. (1,58 mm) out of the bar groove.
   NOTE: New chains tend to stretch; check the chain tension frequently and tension as required.

BAR AND CHAIN REPLACEMENT (See figure 11)
The user should know how to assemble the guide bar and chain. Check the chain tensioning and add oil as described in this manual before each operation.

1. Remove the battery from the unit. Wear protective gloves.
2. Unscrew the side cover lock nuts.
3. Remove the side cover.
4. The chain should face in the direction of chain rotation. If they face backwards, turn the loop over.
5. Hold the chain in position on the bar and place the loop around the sprocket and make sure it is correctly mounted. Make sure the bar hole fits well with bolt for chain tension.
6. Replace the side cover, turn the chain tension adjustment screw clockwise until the chain is properly tensioned. The guide bar must then be pushed upwards and check chain tension again. Do not tension the chain too tight.
7. After the chain is well-tensioned, tighten the nut again.
8.  Once the chain is well tensioned, tighten the side cover lock nuts. Start with a new chain, allowing it to run-in for 2-3 minutes.

NOTE: If the chain is too tight, it will not rotate. Loosen the chain cover lock nuts slightly and turn the chain adjustment screw 1/4 turn counterclockwise. Lift the tip of the guide bar up and retighten the chain cover lock nuts. Ensure that the chain will rotate without binding .

CHAIN OILER

• Use a lubricant that is designed for chains and chain oilers and is formulated to perform over a wide temperature range with no dilution required.
• Remove the cap and carefully pour approximately 2 oz (57 g) of bar and chain lubricant into the bar lube reservoir. Replace the cap and tighten securely.
• Check and refill the bar lube reservoir every time the polesaw is used.

NOTE: If chain is too tight, it will not rotate. Loosen the bar cover knob slightly and turn adjusting screw 1/4 turn counterclockwise. Lift the tip of the bar up and retighten bar cover knob.
NOTE: Do not use dirty, used, or otherwise contaminated lubricants. Damage may occur to the oil pump, bar, or chain.

CHAIN MAINTENANCE
For smooth and fast cutting, the chain needs to be maintained properly. The following conditions indicate that the chain requires sharpening:

• Wood chips are small and powdery.
• Chain must be forced through the wood during cutting.
• Chain cuts to one side.

During maintenance of the chain, consider the following:

• Improper filing angle of the side plate can increase the risk of a severe kickback.
• Depth gauge (or raker clearance) setting determines the height the cutter enters the wood and the size of the wood chip that is removed. Too much clearance increases the potential for kickback. Too little clearance decreases the size of the wood chip thus decreasing the chain’s cutting ability.
• If cutter teeth have hit hard objects such as nails or stones, or have been abraded by mud or sand on the wood, have service dealer sharpen chain.

HOW TO SHARPEN THE CUTTERS

Be careful to file all cutters to the specified angles and to the same length, as fast cutting can be obtained only when all cutters are uniform.

• Tighten the chain tension enough that the chain does not wobble. Do all of your filing at the midpoint of the bar. Wear gloves for protection.
• Use a round file and holder.
• Keep the file level with the top plate of the tooth. Do not let the file dip or rock.
• Using light but firm pressure, stroke towards the front corner of the tooth. Lift file away from the steel on each return stroke.
• Put a few firm strokes on every tooth. File all left hand cutters in one direction. Then move to the other side and file the right hand cutters in the opposite direction. Occasionally remove filings from the file with a wire brush.

CAUTION
Dull or improperly sharpened chain can cause excessive motor speed during cutting which may result in severe motor damage.
WARNING
Improper chain sharpening increases the potential of kickback. Failure to replace or repair damaged chain can cause serious injury
