2. If the limb can be reached from the ground, lift the
limb while holding the saw. This should release the
"pinch" and free the saw.
3. If the saw is still trapped, call a professional for
assistance.
LIMBING AND PRUNING (Fig. F)
This pole saw attachment is designed for trimming small
branches and limbs up to 20cm in diameter. For best
results, observe the following precautions.
1.
Plan the cut carefully. Be aware of the direction in
which the branch will fall.
WARNING: Branches may fall in unexpected
directions. Do not stand directly under the branch being cut.
2. The most typical cutting application is to position the unit
at an angle of 60° or less. As the angle of the pole saw
shaft to the ground increases, the difficulty of making the
first cut (from the underside of limb) increases.
3. Remove long branches in several stages.
4. Cut lower branches first to allow the top branches
more room to fall.
5. Work slowly, keeping both hands on the saw with a
firm grip. Maintain secure footing and balance.
6. Do not cut from a ladder; this is extremely dangerous.
Leave such operations for professionals.
7. Do not make the flush cut next to the main limb or
trunk until you have cut off much of limb to reduce
the weight. Following proper cutting procedures will
prevent stripping the bark from the main member.
8. Do not use the pole saw for felling or bucking.
9. To prevent electrocution, do not operate within 15 m
of overhead electrical lines and keep bystanders at
least 15 m away.

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.
CLEAN THE UNIT
◾
After each use, remove the battery and clean debris
from the chain and guide bar with a soft brush. Wipe
the pole saw surface with a clean cloth moistened with
a mild soap solution.
◾
Remove the chain-sprocket cover, and then use a soft
brush to remove debris from the guide bar, saw chain,
sprocket and chain-sprocket cover.
◾
Always clean out wood chips, saw dust, and dirt from
the guide bar groove when replacing the saw chain.
◾
Please examine the motor housing inside from the
cooling vents and clear the debris every two weeks
(fig.G).
NOTICE: Do not use any strong detergents on the
plastic housing or the handle. They can be damaged by
certain aromatic oils such as pine and lemon.
REPLACING THE BAR AND CHAIN
WARNING:
Never touch or adjust the chain while
the motor is running. The saw chain is very sharp; always
wear protective gloves when performing maintenance to
the chain.
NOTICE:
When replacing the guide bar and chain, always
use the specified bar and chain combination listed in the
"Recommended Bar and Chain for this Pole Saw" section.
Disassembling the Worn Bar and Chain (Fig. H)
1. Remove the battery, allow the pole saw to cool and
tighten the oil tank cap.
2. Position the pole saw attachment on its side with the
chain-sprocket cover is facing upwards.
3. Wear gloves. Using the combi-wrench provided with
the power pole, loosen the bar nut counterclockwise
to remove it from the chain-sprocket cover. Clean the
chain-sprocket cover with a dry cloth and save it for
reassembly.
4. Remove the bar and chain from the mounting
surface. Remove the worn chain from the bar.
NOTICE: If there is difficulty in removing the bar and
chain from the mounting surface, place the pole saw
upright, with one hand support the bar, to loosen the
tensioning screw clockwise with the other hand(Fig. I)
and then remove the bar with the chain.
