Filling Oil Tank with Bar and
Chain Lubricant
WARNING
To prevent accidental
starting that could cause
serious personal injury, always remove the
battery pack from the tool before filling the
tank with oil.
WARNING
Do not smoke or bring
any fire or flame near the
oil or the pole saw.
Oil may spill and cause a
fire.
NOTICE:
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 pole saw. Chain life and cutting capacity
depend on optimum lubrication. The chain is automatically lubricated with chain oil 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 tank cap is facing
upwards. Twist the oil-tank cap counterclockwise to remove it (Fig. 5).
