MAINTENANCE
W A R N I N G
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a
hazard or cause product damage.

Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields during power tool operation or
when blowing dust. If operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
W A R N I N G
Before inspecting, cleaning or servicing the unit, stop the motor, wait for all moving parts to
stop, and remove the battery. Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious personal
injury or property damage.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from
various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to
remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
W A R N I N G
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc.,
come in contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken, or destroy plastic, which
may result in serious personal injury.
All pole saw service, other than the items listed in the instruction manual maintenance
instructions, should be performed by competent pole saw service personnel. (For example, if
improper tool is used to hold the flywheel in order to remove the clutch, structural damage to the
flywheel could occur and subsequently could cause the flywheel to burst).
