BATTERIES
Battery packs which have not been used for some time should
be recharged before use.
Temperatures in excess of 50°C (122°F) reduce the
performance of the battery pack. Avoid extended exposure to
heat or sunshine (risk of overheating).
The contacts of chargers and battery packs must be kept clean.
For an optimum life-time, after use, the battery packs have to
be fully charged.
To obtain the longest possible battery life remove the battery
pack from the charger once it is fully charged.
For battery pack storage longer than 30 days:
Store the battery pack where the temperature is below 27°C
and away from moisture
Store the battery packs in a 30% - 50% charged condition
Every six months of storage, charge the pack as normal.
MAINTENANCE
Adding the chain lubricating oil (see picture section)
WARNING!
Never work without chain lubricant. If the saw
chain is running without lubricant, the guide bar and the saw
chain can be damaged. It is essential to frequently check the oil
level in the oil level gauge and before starting to use the Pole
saw.
Keep the reservoir more than ¼ full to ensure suffi cient oil is
available for the job.
Note It is recommended to use a vegetable based chain oil
when pruning trees. Mineral oil may harm trees. Never use
waste oil automotive oil, or very thick oils. These could damage
the Pole saw.Clear surface around the oil cap to prevent
contamination.
Adjusting the chain tension (see picture section)
WARNING!
The saw chain is sharp. Always wear
pro-tective gloves when performing maintenance to the chain.
The chain tension is correct when the gap between the cutter in
the chain and the bar is about 3 mm. Pull the chain in the
middle of the lower side of the bar downwards (away from the
bar) and measure the distance between the bar and the chain
cutters.Tighten the bar mounting nuts by turning it counter
clockwise.
Note
Do not over-tension the chain - excess tension will cause
excessive wear and will reduce the life of the chain and could
damage the bar. New chains could stretch and loosen during
initial use. Remove battery pack and check chain tension
frequently during the fi rst two hours of use.The temperature of
the chain increases during normal operation causing the chain
to stretch. Check the chain tension frequently and adjust as
required. A chain tensioned while warm may be too tight upon
cooling. Make sure that the chain tension is correctly adjusted
as specifi ed in these instructions.
Chain and Bar
After every few hours of use, remove the drive cover, guide bar
and chain and clean thoroughly using a soft bristle brush.
Ensure oiling hole on bar is clear of debris. When replacing dull
chains with sharp chains it is good practice to fl ip the chain bar
from bottom to top.
