the guide bar and the saw chain on the underside as shown
in Fig. G.
2. To adjust saw chain tension, loosen hex head
screws .

3. Rotate the screw 19 in the front of the housing using the
flat screwdriver end of the wrench.
4. Do not over‑tension the saw chain as this will lead to
excessive wear and will reduce the life of the guide bar and
saw chain. Overtensioning also reduces the amount of cuts
you will get per battery charge.
5. Once saw chain tension is correct, tighten hex head
screws 12 to clamp bar.
6. When the saw chain is new check the tension frequently
(after disconnecting battery) during the first 2 hours of use
as a new chain stretches slightly.
nOTE: Saw chain tension should be adjusted regularly.
Chain Oiling (Fig. H)
1. A high quality bar and chain oil or SAE30 weight motor
oil should be used for saw chain
lubrication. The use of a vegetable based bar and chain
oil is recommended when pruning trees. Mineral oil is not
recommended because it may harm trees. Never use waste
oil or very thick oil. These may damage your pole saw.
2. Lubricate the whole saw chain evenly before each use as
shown in Figure H. Also lubricate the saw chain whenever
replacing a fully discharged battery with a fully charged one.

Joining Saw Head Module to Handle Module
(Fig. I–L)

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.
The three assembliess which make up the pole saw are keyed
to insure correct assembly. If an assembly does not smoothly
attach to another do not force fit.
Combining the handle assembly
assembly 3 creates a pole saw that is approximately 1.8 m in
length as shown in Fig. I.
To attach the handle assembly to the saw head assembly:
1. Align the groove 21 on the outside of the coupling end of
the handle assembly 1
of the coupling end of the saw head assembly
Fig. J. Push the two sections completely together. Refer to
Fig. K.
2. Slide the threaded sleeve
down as far as possible and rotate the sleeve clockwise
until it stops and completely covers the threads as shown
in Fig. L.

Refer to to Joining Saw Head Module to Handle Module for
directions on how to attach the middle assembly to the handle
assembly and saw head assembly.

WARNING: Always check to make sure that the sleeve
is completely threaded on and that the red threads are
no longer visible. Not threading the sleeve completely
on could result in the assemblys becoming disconnected
creating a hazardous condition. Periodically check the

Detaching Saw Head Module (Fig. N)

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 assemblies, whether it is in the two
assembly or three assembly mode, always detach the saw head
assembly first. To do this, rest the handle assembly
3
ground and grasp the center of the saw head assembly with
one hand as shown in Fig. N. Use your other hand to loosen the
threaded sleeve and then pull the two halves apart. Repeat this
process if the center extension was attached.
