• Place new chain in groove of guide bar and around sprocket. Make

 

sure saw teeth are facing correct direction by matching arrow on

 

chain with graphic on housing shown here.

•

Rotate the screw in the front of the housing clockwise to increase

 

the chain tension as in Figure 3.

 

• Replace sprocket cover, bar clamp, and allen head screws.

• Follow instructions for adjusting the chain tension.

Adjusting Chain Tension

 

• With the saw still on a firm surface check the chain tension. The

 

tension is correct when the chain snaps back after being pulled

 

1/8 in. (3mm) away from the chain

 

 

bar with light force from the middle

4

 

finger and thumb as shown in

 

 

figure 4. There should be no “sag”

 

 

between the guide bar and the chain

 

 

on the underside as shown in

 

•

figure 5.

 

To adjust saw chain tension, loosen

 

•

allen head screws.

5

Rotate the screw in the front of the

 

 

housing using the flat screwdriver end

 

•

of the wrench as shown in figure 3.

 

Do not over-tension the chain as this will

 

lead to excessive wear and will reduce

 

 

the life of the bar and chain.

 

 

Overtensioning also reduces the amount of cuts you will get per

 

battery charge.

 

• Once chain tension is correct, tighten allen head screws to clamp

•

bar.

 

When the chain is new check the tension frequently (after

 

disconnecting battery) during the first 2 hours of use as a new chain

 

stretches slightly.

 

Chain Oiling

 

• A high quality bar and chain oil or

 

SAE30 weight motor oil should be

6

used for chain and bar lubrication. The

 

use of a vegetable based bar and chain

 

oil is recommended when pruning

 

trees. Mineral oil is not recommended

 

because it may harm trees. Never use

 

waste oil or very thick oil. These may

 

damage your chain saw.

 

• Lubricate the whole chain evenly

 

before each use as shown in figure 6.

 

Also lubricate the chain whenever

 

replacing a fully discharged battery with

 

a fully charged one.

 

Transporting Pole Saw

7

• Always remove the battery pack from the

 

handle (figure 7) and cover the chain with the

scabbard (figure 8) when transporting the

Pole Saw. See page 5 for additional

8

information on transporting the battery.
