Disassembly
Detaching Saw Head Module
WARNING: Sharp moving blade. To prevent accidental
operation, insure that battery is disconnected from the handle
and that the protective scabbard is in place on the chain before
performing the following operations. Failure to do this could result
in serious personal injury.
When detaching the modules, whether it is in the two
module or three module mode, always detach the
saw head module first. To do this, rest the handle
module on the ground and grasp the center of the
saw head module with
one hand figure 17. Use
your other hand to loosen
the threaded sleeve
figure 18 and then pull
the two halves apart.
Repeat this process if the center extension
was attached.
Operating the Pole Saw

Connecting the Battery

fully into the tool cavity until it “clicks” into
place. To remove the battery from the tool,

Switch
Always be sure of your footing and grip the
Pole Saw firmly with both hands with the
thumb and fingers encircling the handle.
To turn the tool ON pull the lock button (1)
back with your thumb and then squeeze
the trigger (2) with your fingers as shown
in figure 21. (Once the tool is running you
can release the lock button.) To turn the
tool OFF, release the trigger.
Auto-Stop Chain Braking System
Your chain saw is fitted with an auto-stop chain braking system which
will stop the chain quickly each time you release the rear trigger, or if
kickback should occur. This system should be tested before every
use.
