OPERATION
DANGER:
Never cut near power lines, electric cords, or other electric sources. If bar and chain jams on any electrical cord or line, DO NOT TOUCH THE BAR OR CHAIN! THEY CAN BECOME ELECTRICALLY LIVE AND VERY DANGEROUS. Continue to hold the pole saw by the insulated rear handle or lay it down and away from you in a safe manner. Disconnect the electrical service to the damaged line or cord before attempting to free the bar and chain from the line or cord. Contact with the bar, chain, other conductive parts of the pole saw, or live electric cords or lines will result in death by electrocution or seri- ous injury.
WARNING:
Do not allow familiarity with this product to make you careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict serious injury.
WARNING:
Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1, along with head protection. Failure to do so could result in objects being thrown into your eyes and other possible serious injuries.
ADDING BAR AND CHAIN LUBRICANT
See Figure 4
Use Bar and Chain Lubricant. It is designed for chains and chain oilers, and is formulated to perform over a wide temperature range with no dilution required.
NOTE: Pole saw comes from the factory with no bar and chain oil added. Level should also be checked after every 20 minutes of use and refilled as needed.
nRemove oil cap.
nCarefully pour the bar and chain oil into the tank.
nWipe off excess oil.
nCheck and fill the oil tank when quick view oil indicator is below the second to last indicator line.
nRepeat as needed.
NOTE: Do not use dirty, used or otherwise contaminated oils. Damage may occur to the bar or chain.
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 then run for one minute. When storing the unit for a long period of time (three months or longer) be sure the chain is lightly lubricated; this will prevent rust on the chain and bar sprocket.
