REMOVINg ThE sAw hEAD (FIg. C&D)
If the extension tube (9) is fitted, the saw head must be
removed first.
■ To remove the saw head (4), rest the handle (3) on
the ground, loosen the collar and take off the saw
head.
ChAIN TENsION (FIg.T)
Chains stretch with use, check and tension often.Never
tension a warm chain before storing, as chains shrink
when cool; this can damage chain, bar and saw.
■ Release chain tension by turning the tensioning
screw, located behind the chain bar, counter-
clockwise.
■ Unscrew the locking knob.
■ Remove the cover.
■ The bar and chain can now be removed by lifting it
away from the main body of the saw and releasing
the chain from the drive pulley.
■ The pole saw can now be cleaned with a brush and
or rag to remove sawdust and oil.
■ To replace the bar and chain, loop the chain over
the drive pulley and place the bar against the centre
alignment groove.
■ Ensure that the adjusting block is located in the
tensioning hole on the chain bar.
■ Until that the rubber block and chain bar are free
from oil, as this helps to keep tension on the chain.
■ Replace the side cover and locking knob, but do not
tighten.
■ Using a screwdriver on the tensioning screw, turn
clockwise.
■ Tighten until there is enough play that the chain can
be pulled away from the bar, but not so much that
the runners can be pulled out of the bar.
■ Once you have the correct tension, fully tighten the
locking knob.
