IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
3 — English
Kickback is a dangerous reaction that can lead
to serious injury. Kickback may occur when the
moving chain contacts an object at the upper
portion of the tip of the guide bar or when the
wood closes in and pinches the chain in the
cut. Contact at the upper portion of the tip of
the guide bar can cause the chain to dig into
the object and stop the chain for an instant.
The result is a lightning-fast, reverse reaction
which kicks the guide bar up and back toward
the operator. If the chain is pinched along the
top of the guide bar, the guide bar can be driven
rapidly back toward the operator, which can
cause loss of control and may result in serious
injury. Do not rely exclusively upon the safety
devices built into the product.
With a basic understanding of kickback, you
can reduce or eliminate the element of surprise.
Sudden surprise contributes to accidents.
Use pole saw for cutting wood only. Do not use
for cutting non-wood items.
Make sure that the area in which you are cutting
is free from obstructions. Do not let the nose of
the guide bar contact a log, branch, fence, or
any other obstruction while you are operating
the unit. Have a planned retreat path.
Cut only when visibility and light are adequate
for you to see clearly.
To protect yourself from electrocution, do not
operate within 50 feet of overhead electrical
lines.
In an emergency situation, use the spring clips
on the quick release shoulder harness to free
yourself from the harness and the pole saw.
WARNING — Do not operate near electrical
power lines. The unit has not been designed
to provide protection from electric shock in the
event of contact with overhead electric lines.
Consult local regulations for safe distances from
overhead electric power lines and ensure that
the operating position is safe and secure before
operating the saw chain pole pruner.
Before starting the motor, make sure the chain
is not contacting any object.
To protect yourself from falling branches, do not
stand directly under the branch or limb being
cut. This unit should not be held at an angle over
60° from ground level.
Turn off the motor and make sure cutting attach-
ment has stopped before setting unit down.
Follow the sharpening and maintenance instruc-
tions for the saw chain.
Use only the replacement guide bars and low
kickback chains specified for the unit.
Do not operate the saw with one hand! Serious
injury to the operator, helpers, bystanders, or
any combination of these persons may result
from one hand operation. This saw is intended
for two-handed use.
Use extreme caution when cutting small-sized
brush and saplings because slender material
may catch the saw chain and be whipped to-
ward you or pull you off balance.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION — Blade coasts after being turned
off.
Do not grasp the exposed cutting blades or
cutting edges when picking up or holding the
product.
Check Damaged Parts — Before further use of
the product, a guard or other part that is dam-
aged should be carefully checked to determine
that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function. Check for alignment of mov-
ing parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, mounting, and any other condition that
may affect its operation. A guard or other part
that is damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced by an authorized service center unless
indicated elsewhere in this manual.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
When cutting a limb that is under tension, be
alert for spring back so that you will not be struck
when the tension in the wood fibers is released.
To avoid accidental starting, never carry the unit
with the battery installed or with your finger on
the switch trigger.
Maintain Product With Care — Keep cutting
edge sharp and clean for best performance
and to reduce the risk of injury. Follow instruc-
tions for lubricating and changing accessories.
Inspect the battery charger cord periodically,
and if damaged, have it replaced or repaired by
an authorized service dealer.
Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and
grease.
Keep all parts of the body away from the saw
chain. Do not remove cut material or hold mate-
rial to be cut when blades are moving. Make sure
the switch is off when clearing jammed material.
Saw chain continues to move after the switch is
turned off. A moment of inattention while operat-
ing the pole saw may result in serious personal
injury.
Carry the pole saw by the handle with the saw
chain stopped. When transporting or storing the
pole saw, always place the scabbard on the saw
bar. Proper handling of the pole saw will reduce
possible personal injury from the saw chain.
Hold the pole saw by insulated gripping surfaces
only, because the saw chain may contact hidden
wiring. A saw chain contacting a “live” wire may
make exposed metal parts of the pole saw “live”
and could give the operator an electric shock.
Do not use the pole saw in bad weather condi-
tions, especially when there is a risk of lightning.
This decreases the risk of being struck by light-
ning.
To reduce the risk of electrocution, never use
near any electrical power lines. Contact with or
use near power lines may cause serious injury
or electric shock resulting in death.
Always use two hands when operating the pole
saw. Hold the pole saw with both hands to avoid
loss of control.
Always use head protection when operating the
pole saw overhead. Falling debris can result in
serious personal injury.
Service on the product must be performed by
qualified repair personnel only. Service or main-
tenance performed by unqualified personnel
could result in injury to the user or damage to
the product.
Battery operated units do not have to be plugged
into an electrical outlet; therefore, they are al-
ways in operating condition. Be aware of pos-
sible hazards even when unit is not operating.
Remove the battery pack from the pole saw
before cleaning, servicing, storing, removing
material from the unit, changing accessories
such as the bar and chain, or when not in use.
A battery pack must be recharged only with the
specified charger for the battery pack. A charger
that may be suitable for one type of battery pack
may create a risk of fire when used with another
battery pack. Use battery pack only with charger
listed.
Use this product only with batteries and char-
gers listed in tool/appliance/battery pack/char-
ger correlation supplement 987000-432.
To reduce the risk of explosion and possible in-
jury, do not place battery units or their batteries
near fire or heat.
Do not open or mutilate the battery pack. Re-
leased electrolyte is corrosive and may cause
damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if
swallowed.

PREPARATION FOR CUTTING
See Figures 6 - 7.
Wear non-slip gloves for maximum grip and
protection.
Check chain tension and adjust if necessary.
Refer to Adjusting the Chain Tension in the
Maintenance section.
Maintain a proper grip on the unit whenever the
motor is running. Use your right hand to firmly
grip the rear handle while your left hand has a
firm grip on the pole shaft.
Hold unit firmly with both hands. Always keep
your left hand on the pole shaft and your right
hand on the rear handle, so your body is to the
left of the chain line. Never use a left-handed
(cross-handed) grip, or any stance that places
your body or arm across the chain line.
Never stand directly under the limb you are cut-
ting.
Be certain the collars are fully tightened before
operating equipment; check them periodically
for tightness during use to avoid serious injury.
BASIC CUTTING PROCEDURE
Follow the steps below to prevent damage to tree
or shrub bark. Do not use a back-and-forth saw-
ing motion.
Make a shallow first cut (1/4 of limb diameter)
on the underside of the limb close to the main
limb or trunk.
Make a second cut from the top side of the limb
outboard from the first cut. Continue the cut
through the limb until the limb separates from
the tree. Be prepared to balance the weight of
the tool when the limb falls.
Make a final cut close to trunk.
NOTE: For second and final cuts (from top of limb
or branch), hold front cutting guide against the
limb being cut. This will help steady the limb and

make it easier to cut. Allow chain to cut for you;
exert only light downward pressure. If you force the
cut, damage to the bar, chain, or motor can result.
Release the trigger as soon as the cut is com-
pleted.
Failure to follow proper cutting procedures will
result in the bar and chain binding and becom-
ing pinched or trapped in the limb. If this should
happen:
Stop the motor and remove the battery pack.
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.
If the saw is still trapped, call a professional for
assistance.
13 — English
LIMBING AND PRUNING
See Figures 8 - 9.
This unit is designed for trimming small branches
and limbs up to 6 in. in diameter. For best results,
observe the following precautions.
Plan the cut carefully. Be aware of the direction
in which the branch will fall.
Branches may fall in unexpected directions. Do
not stand directly under the branch being cut.
The most typical cutting application is to posi-
tion the unit at an angle of 60° or less, depend-
ing on the specific situation, as shown. As the
angle of the pole saw shaft to ground increases,
the difficulty of making the first cut (from the
underside of limb) increases.
Remove long branches in several stages.
Cut lower branches first to allow the top branch-
es more room to fall.
Work slowly, keeping both hands on the saw
with a firm grip. Maintain secure footing and
balance.
Keep the tree between you and the chain while
limbing. Cut from side of tree opposite branch
you are cutting.
Do not cut from a ladder; this is extremely dan-
gerous. Leave this operation for professionals.
Do not make the flush cut next to the main limb
or trunk until you have cut off the limb further out
to reduce the weight. Following proper cutting
procedures will prevent stripping the bark from
the main member.
Do not use the pole saw for felling or bucking.
To prevent electrocution, do not operate within
50 ft. of overhead electrical lines.
Keep bystanders at least 50 ft. away.

rized service center for assistance.
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.
WARNING:
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 could
result in serious personal injury.
All pole saw service, other than the items listed in
these maintenance instructions, should be per-
formed 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 subse-
quently could cause the flywheel to burst).
ADJUSTING THE CHAIN TENSION
See Figures 10 - 13.
WARNING:
Stop the motor, wait for all moving parts to stop,
and remove the battery pack. 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. Failure to follow these instructions can
result in serious personal injury.
Proper chain tension is critical to the performance
of your pole saw. Always check chain tension
before using the saw and periodically until the
work is complete. The chain must be retensioned
whenever the flats on the drive links hang out of
the bar groove.
A cold chain is correctly tensioned when there is
no slack on the underside of the guide bar. The
chain should be snug, but still able to be turned
by hand without binding.
MAINTENANCE
15 — English
A warm chain is correctly tensioned when the flats
on the tie straps hang approximately .050 inches
out of the bar groove.
If adjustment is needed:
Remove the combination wrench from the stor-
age area.
Loosen the chain cover screw to finger tight.
Raise the tip of the guide bar and continue to
hold up until the end of this procedure.
Turn the chain tensioning screw clockwise until
the flats on the tie straps of the chain contact
the bar, making sure the drive links are seated
inside the bar groove.
Retighten the chain cover screw securely.
Release the tip of the guide bar and verify the
chain is now correctly tensioned using the
guidelines above.
NOTE: If the chain is too tight and will not ro-
tate, loosen the chain cover screw slightly, then
turn the chain tensioning screw 1/4 turn coun-
terclockwise. Lift up the tip of the guide bar,
retighten the chain cover screw securely, then
verify the chain will now rotate without binding.
NOTE: New chains tend to stretch; check the
chain tension frequently and adjust as needed.
Return the combination wrench to the storage
area.
NOTICE:
A chain tensioned while warm may be too tight
upon cooling. Check the “cold tension” before
next use.

CHAIN MAINTENANCE
See Figure 17.
WARNING:
Remove the battery pack and make sure the
chain has stopped before you do any work on
the saw to avoid accidental starting and pos-
sible serious personal injury.
For smooth and fast cutting, the chain needs to
be maintained properly. The following conditions
indicate that the chain requires sharpening:
Wood chips are small and powdery
Chain must be forced through the wood during
cutting
Chain cuts to one side
During maintenance of the chain, consider the
following:
Improper filing angle of the side plate can in-
crease the risk of a severe kickback.
Depth gauge (or raker clearance) setting de-
termines the height the cutter enters the wood
and the size of the wood chip that is removed.
Too much clearance increases the potential for
kickback. Too little clearance decreases the size
of the wood chip thus decreasing the chain's
cutting ability.
If cutter teeth have hit hard objects such as nails
and stones, or have been abraded by mud or
sand on the wood, have service dealer sharpen
chain.
HOW TO SHARPEN THE CUTTERS
See Figures 18 - 21.
Be careful to file all cutters to the specified angles
and to the same length, as fast cutting can be
obtained only when all cutters are uniform.
MAINTENANCE
Fig. 19
WARNING:
The saw chain is very sharp, always wear pro-
tective gloves when performing maintenance
to the chain to prevent serious personal injury.
Properly tension the chain prior to sharpening.
Refer to Adjusting the Chain Tension earlier in
this manual. Do all of your filing at the mid-point
of the bar.
Use a 5/32 in. diameter round file and holder.
Keep the file level with the top plate of the tooth.
Do not let the file dip or rock.
18 — English
Using light but firm pressure, stroke towards
the front corner of the tooth. Lift file away from
the steel on each return stroke.
Put a few firm strokes on every tooth. File all left
hand cutters in one direction. Then move to the
other side and file the right hand cutters in the
opposite direction. Occasionally remove filings
from the file with a wire brush.
WARNING:
Improper chain sharpening increases the po-
tential of kickback, which can result in serious
personal injury.
WARNING:
Failure to replace or repair damaged chain can
cause serious injury.
NOTICE:
A dull or improperly sharpened chain can cause
excessive engine speed during cutting, which
may result in severe engine damage.
STORING THE PRODUCT

WARNING:
Always remove the battery pack before trans-
porting or storing pole saw. Place battery pack
indoors in a dry, secure location out of the reach
of children when storing. Failure to follow these
