6. Adjust the front-assist handle position within the
mounting zone (Fig. G6). The handle should be
adjusted so that your arm is straight when using the
pole saw.
7. Press down the lock lever so that the front-assist
handle is secured from rotation or moving along the
power head shaft (Fig. G6).
ATTACHING THE SHOULDER STRAP (Fig. H)
For safe and comfortable operation, put on the shoulder
strap across the shoulder to relieve the weight on the
operator's arms. Depress the carabiner to open it and
hook the carabiner onto the shoulder strap loop. Adjust
the shoulder strap length to a comfortable operating
position.
WARNING:
When emergency occurs, take the strap
off from your shoulder immediately to avoid injury.

OPERATION

DANGER:
Never cut near power lines, electric cords,
or other electric sources. If the bar and chain jams on any
electrical cord or line, DO NOT TOUCH THE BAR, CHAIN
OR THE POLE! THEY CAN BECOME ELECTRICALLY
LIVE AND MAY BE VERY DANGEROUS. Continue to hold
the pole saw by the insulated rear handle or lay it down
and away from you in a safer manner. Disconnect the
electrical service to the damaged line or cord before
attempting to free the bar and chain from the line or cord.
Contact with the bar, chain, other conductive parts of the
pole saw, or live electric cords or lines will result in death
by electrocution or serious injury.

56-VOLT LITHIUM-ION COMMERICAL POLE SAW — PSX2510
FILLING THE OIL TANK WITH BAR AND CHAIN
LUBRICANT
WARNING:
Do not smoke or bring any fire or flame
near the oil or the pole saw. Oil may spill and cause a fire.
NOTICE:
The pole saw is not filled with oil at the
time of purchase. It is essential to fill the tank with
chain oil before use. Operating the pole saw without
chain oil or when the oil level is below the 'MIN' mark will
result in damage to the pole saw. Chain life and cutting
capacity depend on optimum lubrication. The chain is
automatically lubricated with chain oil during operation, if
there is sufficient oil in the reservoir. Oil level should also
be checked after every 20 minutes of use and refilled as
needed.
1. Remove the battery pack from the power head.
2. Clean the oil-tank cap and the area around it to
ensure that no dirt falls into the oil tank.
3. Lay the pole saw on a firm, flat surface, so that the
oil tank cap is facing upwards.
4. Lift the tab of the oil tank cap (Fig. I1).
5. Use the tab to rotate the oil tank cap
counterclockwise to remove it.
6. Carefully pour the bar and chain oil into the tank until
it fills to the tank neck. Be careful not to let the oil
spill from the opening. Wipe off any excess oil.
7. Install the oil tank knob and rotate the knob to tighten
it (Fig. I2).
8. Close the tab oil tank cap.
NOTICE:
◾
Never use oil or other lubricants not specifically
designed for use on the bar and chain. This can lead
to a clogged oil system, which may cause premature
wear of the bar and chain.
◾
Check the oil level frequently and refill as needed.
◾
Do not use dirty, used, or otherwise contaminated oil.
Damage may occur to the bar or chain.
◾
It is normal for oil to seep from the saw when it is not
in use. To prevent seepage, empty the oil tank after
each use, and then run the saw for one minute. When
storing the machine for a long period of time, be sure
the chain is lightly lubricated; this will prevent rust on
the chain and bar sprocket.
◾
To preserve natural resources, please recycle or
dispose of oil properly. Consult your local waste
authority for information regarding available recycling
and disposal options.
