CAUTION!
The chain will continue to run for several
seconds after turning off the tool.
Do not use the electric pole + chain saw under wet conditions.
Use extreme caution when cutting small brush, saplings,
or limbs under tension because slender and tense material
may catch the saw and be whipped toward you, pull you off
balance, or spring back.
Do not use the electric pole + chain saw to cut vines and/or
small underbrush.

WARNING!
Do not let familiarity with this type of tool
prevent you from taking all necessary precautions. Remember
that a careless fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict
serious injury.
m
WARNING!
Do not cut trees near electrical wires.

WARNING!
Failure to lubricate the chain will cause
damage to the bar and chain. Use only a good quality bar
and chain oil designed specifically for use with chain saws.
One minute of use will consume approximately 0.15 fl oz.
(4 ml) of oil.
NOTE: It is normal for oil to seep from the saw when not in
use. To prevent seepage, empty the oil tank after each use.
When storing the unit for a long period of time (3 months or
longer), be sure the chain is lightly lubricated; this will prevent
rust on the chain and bar sprocket.

WARNING!
Be aware of the cord while operating the
saw. Keep the cord away from the chain. Be careful not to trip
over the extension cord.
1. Prior to each cutting session, run through the daily
checklist (see pg. 17).
2. Connect the electric pole + chain saw to a working 120 V
outlet using a heavy-duty outdoor extension power cord.
3. Make a loop in the extension cord and push it up through
the hole in the rear handle and around the cord restraint
hook, then connect the extension cord to the appliance
cord (Fig. 18).
4. To turn the tool ON, push and hold the safety lock button
(located on the removable handle) with your thumb and
then squeeze the trigger with your fingers. Once the tool is
running, you can release the safety lock button (Fig. 19).
5. To turn the tool OFF, release the trigger
switch (Fig. 19)
.
NOTE: Do not press the trigger switch until you are ready
to make a cut.

equipped with a telescoping pole which provides up to
15.4 ft (4.7 m) of overhead reach. To adjust the telescoping
pole, follow the instructions below.
