Then make the final cut from the top of
the branch using the bottom side of the
chain. (see figure 20)
Figure 20
Making the initial cut on the underside
of the branch will prevent the branch
from splintering when it falls away from
the tree. Never try to cut the branch
completely from the underside. This
will cause the branch to bind on the
chain and could stall the motor causing
damage to the saw.
Do not stop the saw until after it is
removed from the cut. Release the
trigger to stop the saw. Be sure the
chain has come to a complete stop
before setting the pole saw down. The
chain will immediately become dull if it
contacts the ground while still running.
WALL BRACKET
Mount the wall bracket securely to
the wall; attach with screws to a wall
stud. The use of wall board anchors
is NOT recommended. Place the tool
attachment in the wall bracket as
shown for convenient storage. (see
figure 21)

MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
Always remove the battery
when performing any maintenance on
the power handle or a tool attachment
that is connected to the power handle.
WARNING:
Always keep hands away
from the triggers when performing
maintenance.
LUBRICATION –
See operating
instructions for specific information
on lubricating the chain. Periodic
lubrication of other parts is not
required.
CLEANING OF PLASTIC PARTS
-
Use only a dry brush or a cloth
with warm water and mild soap to
clean plastic parts. Many household
cleaners contain chemicals which
could damage the plastic. Never use
gasoline, turpentine, paint thinner or
similar fluids. Never spray-wash tool
or immerse in water. Water or liquid
inside the tool can cause serious
damage to the unit.
DROPPING THE UNIT -
If you drop
the unit, carefully inspect it for any
damage before using it again. Have
the unit professionally repaired if
damage has occurred.
