ATTACH THE SHOULDER STRAP ( fig. 3)
1. If needed, attach the shoulder strap to the bracket on
the rear pole with the carabiner hook.
2. Adjust the length of the strap to attain a comfortable
working position.
FILLING OIL TANK WITH BAR AND CHAIN
LUBRICANT (
fig. 4)
The pole saw is not filled with oil at the time of
purchase. It is essential to fill the tank with oil before
use. Operating the pole saw without chain oil or when the oil level is below the minimum mark will
result in damage to the saw. Chain life and cutting
capacity depend on optimum lubrication. The chain
is automatically lubricated with chain oil from the
tank during operation.
1. Remove the battery pack from the pole saw.
2. Clean the oil tank cap and the area around it to
ensure that no dirt falls into the oil tank.
3. Position the pole saw on its side on a firm, flat
surface, so that the oil tank cap is facing upwards.
Rotate the oil tank cap counter-clockwise to remove
it.
4. Carefully pour the oil into the tank. Fill to the bottom of the fill neck. Wipe off any excess oil.
5. Replace the cap, place the saw upright, and view the level through the oil inspection window. Oil should fill
the window.

TING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
• Do not smoke or bring any fire or flame near the oil or the saw. Oil may spill and cause a fire.
FPO
NOTICE:
• Never use oil or other lubricants not specifically designed for use on the bar and chain. This can lead to a clogged oil
system, which may cause premature wear of the bar and chain.
• Check the oil level frequently and fill when the oil level falls below the minimum line. Never operate the pole saw if the oil
is not visible.
• Do not use dirty, used, or otherwise contaminated oil. Damage may occur to the bar or chain.
• It is normal for oil to seep from the saw when it is not in use. To prevent seepage, empty the oil tank after each use, and
then run the saw for one minute. When storing the tool for a long period of time, be sure the chain is lightly lubricated; this
will prevent rust on the chain and bar sprocket
