If you try to cut off thick branches
from the bottom, the branch may
close in and pinch the saw chain
in the cut. If you try to cut off thick
branches from the top, without a
shallow undercut, the branch may
splinter figure 24.
Do not force Pole Saw. The motor
will overload and can burn out. It
will do the job better and safer at
the rate for which it was intended.
3. Remove Pole Saw from cut while
it is running at full speed. Stop Pole Saw by releasing trigger.
Make sure chain has stopped before setting Pole Saw down.
Saw chain sharpness
The cutters will dull immediately if they touch the ground or a nail
while cutting.
Saw chain tension
This should be done regularly. Refer to page 8 “Adjusting Chain
Tension”.

Regular maintenance ensures a long effective life for the tool.
After every 10 minutes of use be sure to remove the battery (be
aware the chain and bar can be hot!) check the bar and chain for
correct tension and lubricate per pole saw instruction manual.

liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a
liquid.
IMPORTANT: To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
maintenance and adjustment should be performed by authorized
service centers or other qualified service organizations, always using
identical replacement parts.
