CUTTING WITH EXTENSION POLE
1. Attached the pole as described in
‘’Assembly’’.
2. Install the battery pack into the machine.
NOTE:
Your battery pack maybe
UNCHARGED and you must charge it
before usage. Depress the battery pack
release button to remove the battery
pack from your tool (See Figure E1). After
recharging, insert the battery pack into
the battery port. A simple push and slight
pressure will be sufficient until a click is
heard (See Figure E2). Check to see if the
battery is fully secured.
NOTE:
When removing the battery pack,
hold it firmly to avoid dropping and injury.
WARNING: Do not stand directly
below a branch being cut. Keep
bystanders far away. Do not stand on
a ladder or other type of unstable
support while using the tool. Do not
use the tool near cable, electrical
power or telephone lines. Keep 10 ft
(3m) away from all power lines. (See
Fig. F1-F4
)
3. Use both hands to grip the pole saw. Use
only designated grip areas when operating
pole saw (See Figure F5). Use firm grip.
Thumbs and fingers must wrap around
pole saw handle and pole.
4. Make sure your footing is firm. Keep feet
apart. Divide your weight evenly on both
feet.
5. When ready to make a cut, press the
Lock-out Button, then fully press the On/
off Switch (See Figure F6). This will turn
the pole saw on. Releasing on/off Switch
will turn the pole saw off. Make sure saw is
running at full speed before starting a cut.
6. When starting a cut, place moving chain
against wood. Hold pole saw firmly in
place to avoid possible bouncing or skating
(sideways movement) of saw.
7. Guide pole saw using light pressure. Do
not force the pole saw. The motor will
overload and can burn out. It will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it was
intended.
8. Remove the pole saw from a cut with saw
running at full speed. Stop the pole saw
by releasing trigger. Make sure chain has
stopped before setting the pole saw down.
