CHARGE STATUS
To display the amount of charge left in the battery,
press the charge level indicator button, Fig.2.
ASSEMBLY
Warning!
To prevent accidental starting that could
cause serious personal injury, always remove the
battery pack from the product when assembling parts.
CONNECTING THE POLES
Unlock the locking lever on the saw or trimmer cutting
head pole by lifting upwards, Fig.3. Ensure the
intermediate pole locking lever is in the locked
position to prevent the intermediate pole moving
whilst being connected. Insert the plug on the
intermediate pole into the socket on the saw or
trimmer cutting head pole and push together until the
locking tabs are fully seated, Fig.4. Lock the poles
together by closing the locking lever on the saw or
trimmer cutting head pole, Fig.5.
NOTE: When assembled correctly, the cutting head
pole should not be able to separate from the
intermediate pole when pulled. Repeat above steps if
pole can be separated from intermediate pole.
Warning! Failure to securely assembly and lock all
poles together as directed above could cause the
poles to separate and could result in serious personal
injury or death.
ATTACHING THE SHOULDER HARNESS
Connect the latches on the shoulder harness to the
harness connection points, Fig.6.
Adjust the strap to a comfortable position.
INSTALLING THE BATTERY PACK
Warning!
Always remove battery pack from your tool
when you are assembling parts, making adjustments,
cleaning, carrying, transporting or when not in use.
Removing battery pack will prevent accidental starting
that could cause serious personal injury.
NOTE: To avoid serious personal injury, always
remove the battery pack and keep hands clear of the
lock-out button when carrying or transporting the tool.
Slide the battery pack into the pole saw base, Fig 7.
(Note the battery has raised ribs which allows it to fit
into the pole saw only one way). Make sure the
battery pack snaps into place and that battery pack is
secured in the tool before beginning operation.
Improper installation of the battery pack can cause
damage to internal components.
REMOVING THE BATTERY PACK
Locate the battery release catch on the top of the
battery and press downwards, Fig 8. Whilst holding
down the battery release catch slide the battery pack
away from the tool.
ADDING BAR AND CHAIN LUBRICANT (POLE SAW
ONLY)
Use bar and chain lubricant. It is designed for chains
and chain oilers, and is formulated to perform over a
wide temperature range with no dilution required.
The bar and chain lubricant level should be checked
after every 20 minutes of use and refilled as needed.
Remove the oil cap, Fig.9. Carefully pour the bar and
chain lubricant into the bar lube reservoir.
Wipe off excess oil.
Check and fill the reservoir when the oil level indicator,
Fig.10, is below the second to last indicator line.
Repeat as needed.
NOTE: Do not use dirty, used or otherwise
contaminated oils. Damage may occur to the bar or
chain.
NOTE: It is normal for oil to seep from the saw when
not in use. To prevent seepage, empty the oil tank
after each use then run for one minute.
When storing the unit for a long period of time (three
months or longer) be sure the chain is lightly
lubricated; this will prevent rust on the chain and bar
sprocket.
OPERATION
Danger!
Never cut near power lines, electric cords, or
other electric sources. If bar and chain jams on any
electrical cord or line, DO NOT TOUCH THE BAR OR
CHAIN! THEY CAN BECOME ELECTRICALLY LIVE
AND VERY DANGEROUS.
