NOTE: Check the saw chain tension. The tension is correct when the saw chain snaps
back after being pulled away 3 mm from the saw chain bar with light force from the
middle finger and thumb. There should be no 'sag' between the guide bar and the saw
chain on the underside.
To adjust the tension:
1.
Turn your pole saw off, remove the battery pack, and put on protective gloves.
2.
Loosen the sprocket cover screw. (Fig. 8A)
3.
Turn the chain tension screw clockwise with the socket wrench provided when the
chain tension is too low or turn the chain tension screw counterclockwise when the
chain tension is too strong.
4.
Check the tension level by pulling the chain 3mm away from the guide bar with light
force. Your chain is at the correct level of tension if there is no "sag" between the
guide bar and the chain on the underside. (Fig. 8B)
5.
Once the chain tension is correct, tighten the cover nut.

7.5 TRANSMISSION GEARS LUBRICATION
Do not completely fill the transmission gear case.
NOTE: The transmission gears in the gear case need to be lubricated periodically with
gear grease. Check the gear case grease level about every 50 hours of operation by
removing the sealing screw on the side of the case. If no grease can be seen on the sides
of the gear, follow the steps below to fill with gear grease up to 3/4 capacity.
1.
Position the pole saw attachment on a firm, flat surface so that the sealing screw is
facing upwards (Fig. 8).
2.
Use the hex wrench provided to loosen and remove the sealing screw.
3.
Use a grease syringe (not included) to inject some grease into the screw hole, taking
care not to exceed 3/4 capacity.
4.
Tighten the sealing screw after injection.

7.6 CHAIN MAINTENANCE
Always remove the battery pack from the product when you are assembling
parts, adjusting, cleaning, or whenever the pole saw is not in use.
Wear protective gloves whenever maintaining your pole saw.
A properly sharpened saw chain does not require high levels of pressure to
complete the task.
Never use a dull or damaged saw chain. A dull saw chain cutter can lead to
increased physical strain and dangerous flying shrapnel.
Have the chain sharpened by a qualified service dealer if the teeth on your chain
have become damaged or dull.
NOTE: It is important to regularly inspect the drive sprocket for wear and damage when
you are replacing the chain. Have the drive sprocket replaced by a qualified service
technician if any damage is found.
7.7 TRANSPORTING AND STORING
Do not store or transport the pole saw attachment while it is running. Always
remove the battery pack before storing or transporting it.
Always place the guide bar sheath on the guide bar and chain before storing or
transporting the pole saw attachment.
