CAUTION!
•
Before starting the saw, remove the oil tank cap and add
bar & chain oil to the top of the oil level window
(Fig. 17). One minute of use will consume approximately
0.15 fl oz (4 ml) of oil. Refill when the oil level drops to
1/4 of a tank.
NOTE: Your electric pole + chain saw is equipped with
an automatic oil pump for bar and chain oiling. You must
add bar and chain oil or your electric pole + chain saw will
not function.
•
Starting, stopping, and restarting an electric motor
repeatedly within a few seconds can generate a great deal
of heat and damage the motor. To protect the life of your
electric pole + chain s
aw, always wait at least five seconds
after stopping before restarting the saw.
m
WARNING!
Be sure that the chain is not in contact with
any object when you start the motor.
m
WARNING!
Keep hands away from chain. Keep hands
on handles. Do not overreach.
A good, firm grip on the tool using both hands will help you
maintain control. When using as a pole chain saw, place one
hand on the soft grip and the other hand on the removable
handle with your thumbs and fingers encircling the pole and
handle.
When using as a chain saw, maintain a firm grip by
placing your right hand on the rear handle and left hand on the
front handle with thumbs and fingers encircling the respective
handles.
A firm grip combined with proper positioning of the
handle against your body will help you maintain control of the
saw. Do not let go of the saw while it is in operation.
m
WARNING!
Do not operate the electric pole + chain
saw in a tree, on a ladder, or on a scaffold. Using the tool
under such circumstances is extremely dangerous.
