3. Double check the tension set by the automatic
Chain Tensioning Knob. The correct chain tension is
reached when the Chain (1) can be raised approx.
half the drivelink depth from the Guide Bar (7)
in the center. This should be done by using one
hand to raise the chain against the weight of the
machine. (See Fig. E)
NOTE: The Chain (1) is properly tensioned when
it can be lifted off of the Guide Bar (7) and the
drivelink is within the rail of the Guide Bar (7).
NOTE: The Chain (1) will stretch while cutting and
lose proper tension. When the chain becomes
loose, completely unscrew the Chain Tensioning
Knob (2) or turn the knob around three full turns
in a counter-clockwise direction, then retighten the
Chain Tensioning Knob (2) to properly reset the
chain tension by repeating Steps 1-4 listed above.
ASSEMBLING THE EXTENSION POLE TO THE

Step 1: Loosen the pole saw assembly lever (17) as
shown in Fig F1. Align and insert the machine into the
extension pole.
Step 2: Press the pole saw assembly lever to tighten
the extension pole to the machine.
NOTE: Make sure the extension pole is locked
into position securely before operation.
REMOVING THE EXTENSION POLE (See Fig. F2)
Step 1: Unlock the pole saw assembly lever (17) as
shown.
Step 2: Slide saw to disconnect the extension pole
with the saw while pressing both saw head locking-
buttons (5) simultaneously.
ADJUSTING POLE LENGTH (See Fig. G)
The pole saw has a telescoping pole assembly that
will extend from 1.8m(fully retracted) to 2.3m (fully
extended) .
Inner pole clamping level (18) is used to hold the pole
in position at any extended length.
1. To extend the pole, loosen the inner pole clamping
lever (18) as shown in Fig. G. Pole will slide freely.
2. Pull inner pole section out to desired length of
extension.
NOTE: only extend pole to minimum length
required to reach limb that is being cut.
3. To lock pole in position, tighten clamping lever as
shown in Fig. G.
ATTACHING AND ADJUSTING THE SHOULDER
STRAP (See Fig. H1, H2)
Attach the shoulder strap to the hooks on the pole
with the included carabiner hook, as shown in Fig. H1.
To adjust the position of the shoulder strap, loosen the
Locking knob by turning it counter-clockwise. Move
it to the desired position. Tighten the Locking Knob
clockwise to lock, as indicated.
ADJUSTING THE SAW HEAD ANGLE (See Fig.
I1, I2)
The saw head can be rotated for different cutting
angles for 0 , 15 , and 30
o o
20V Cordless Pole Saw
. (See Fig. I1)
o
1. Rotate the pole saw head to the desired cutting
angle while pressing the Saw Head Adjustment
Knobs located on both sides simultaneously. (See
Fig. I2)
2. Release the knobs when the pole saw head is set
to the desired angle.
NOTE: Failure to properly secure the pole saw head
may result in personal injury and/or property damage.
WARNING! Always ensure the pole saw
head is securely locked! Do not attempt
to use the pole saw with the head in any
other position or unlocked!
ADJUSTING THE REAR HANDLE (See Fig. J)
Push the extension pole rotation button forward
to unlock. Hold the rear handle and rotate it to the
most comfortable and balanced position. Release the
extension pole rotation button to lock the rear handle.
WARNING: Always make sure that the
handle is locked in the desired position
before operation. Do not rotate the handle
when the saw is being operated.
LUBRICATION
Important: The pole saw is not filled with
oil. It is essential to fill with oil before
use. Never operate the pole saw without
chain oil or at an empty oil tank level, as this
will result in extensive damage to the product.
NOTE: Chain life and cutting capacity depend
on optimum lubrication. Therefore, the chain is
automatically oiled during operation.
FILLING OIL TANK (SEE FIG. K)
WARNING: Removing the battery pack
before filling the oil tank.
1. Set pole saw on any suitable surface with Oil Filler
Cap (6) facing upward.
2. Clean area around the Oil Filler Cap with cloth and
unscrew the cap by turning it counter clockwise.
3. Add bar and chain oil (not included) until tank is
full.
4. Avoid dirt or debris entering oil tank, refit Oil Filler
Cap (6) and tighten by turning clockwise until hand
tight.
Important: To allow venting of the oil
tank, small breather channels are
provided between the Oil Filler Cap and
the strainer, to prevent leakage, and ensure
machine is left in a horizontal position (Oil Filler
Cap (6) uppermost) when not in use.
It is important to use only the recommended
standard bar and chain oil (Grade: ISO VG32)
to avoid damage to the pole saw. This can be
found at the location where you purchased this
saw or your local hardware store. Never use
recycled/old oil. Use of non approved oil will
void the warranty.
Do not swallow. If swallowed, call a physician
