OPERATING CHAIN SAW
EXTENSION CORDS
Use proper extension cords with this Pole Saw. Use
only extension cords marked for outdoor use. The cord
must be marked with suffix W or W-A following the
cord type designation.
Example:
SJTW-A or SJTW.
Use proper sized cord with this saw. Cord must be heavy
enough to carry current needed. An undersized cord
will cause voltage drop at saw. Saw will lose power and
overheat. Follow cord size requirements listed below.
WARNING: Read and understand this
owner’s manual before operating this Pole
Saw. Make certain you read and under-
stand all
Important Safety Information,
pages 2 through 4. Improper use of this
Pole Saw can cause severe injury or death
from fire, electrical shock, or body contact
with moving chain, or falling wood.
Cord Length AWG Cord Size
25 feet 16 AWG
50 feet 16 AWG
100 feet 16 AWG
150 feet 14 AWG
Keep cord away from cutting area. Make sure cord
does not catch on branches or logs during cutting.
Inspect cords often. Replace damaged cords.
The extension cord may come undone from the power
cord during use. To avoid this, make a knot with the
two cords as shown in Figure 7.
ADJUSTING POLE LENGTH
The Remington Pole Saw has a telescoping pole as-
sembly that will extend from 57 inches (fully re-
tracted) to 96 inches (fully extended). A threaded
compression coupling is used to hold the pole in
position at any extended length.
1. To extend the pole, loosen coupling by turning
coupling nut counterclockwise as shown in Fig-
ure 8. Pole will slide freely.
2. Pull inner pole section out to desired length of
extension.
Note:
Only extend pole to minimum
length required to reach limb that is being cut.
3. To lock pole in position, tighten coupling by turning
coupling nut clockwise (see Figure 8) until firmly
hand tight. Make sure saw handle is aligned with
pole handle before tightening coupling nut.
IMPOR-
TANT:
Do not use wrench or pliers to overtighten
coupling. Damage to coupling or pole may result.
OILING CHAIN
Always check oil level before using saw. Do not attempt
to operate the oil system while saw is in operation. To oil
chain, press squeeze bulb. Oil will feed onto the guide
bar and chain. Press squeeze bulb at least once before
each cut. Check oil level often by looking at oil sight
level hole. Oil sight level hole is on left side of saw, be-
tween front handle and front hand guard.
CUTTING WITH THE POLE SAW
1. Connect saw to extension cord. Connect exten-
sion cord to power supply.
2. Use both hands to grip Pole Saw. Use only des-
ignated grip areas when operating Pole Saw (see
Figure 9). Use firm grip. Thumbs and fingers
must wrap around Pole Saw handle and pole.
3. Make sure your footing is firm. Keep feet apart.
Divide your weight evenly on both feet.
4. When ready to make a cut, press in trigger switch
lock-out and squeeze trigger switch (see Figure
10). This will turn Pole Saw on. Releasing trig-
ger switch will turn Pole Saw off. Make sure saw
is running at full speed before starting a cut.
5. When starting a cut, place moving chain against
wood. Hold Pole Saw firmly in place to avoid
possible bouncing or skating (sideways move-
ment) of saw.
6. Guide Pole Saw using light pressure. 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.
7. Remove Pole Saw from a cut with saw running at
full speed. Stop Pole Saw by releasing trigger. Make
sure chain has stopped before setting Pole Saw down.
ASSEMBLY OF POLE SAW
1. Slip handle bracket over chain saw
handle from
the right side (see Figure 5).
Note:
The trigger
must be depressed before the bracket will go onto
the handle.
Push the lockout button and depress the trigger.
While holding the trigger in, place the trigger
support portion of the bracket under the trigger
and slide the bracket onto the chain saw handle.
The bracket will keep the trigger in the “on”
position.
2. Align holes in pole bracket with holes in handle
bracket. Install Phillips head screws with
lockwashers through pole bracket from left side
and thread into the weld nuts on the handle
bracket. Tighten screws securely by hand.
3. Plug the saw power cord into receptacle cord at
end of inner pole.
