Disassembly

Detaching Saw Head Module

WARNING: Sharp moving blade. To prevent 17 accidental operation, insure that battery is disconnected from the handle and that the protective scabbard is in place on the chain before performing the following operations.

Failure to do this could result in serious personal injury.

When detaching the modules, whether it is in the two module or three module mode, always detach the saw head module first. To do this, rest the handle

module on the ground and grasp the center of the saw head module with one hand figure 17. Use your other 18

hand to loosen the threaded sleeve figure 18 and then pull the two halves apart. Repeat this process if the center extension was attached.

Operating the Pole Saw

WARNING: Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.

Connecting the Battery

Place the battery in the tool as shown in figure 19 19 and be certain that it is inserted fully into the

tool cavity until it “clicks” into place. To remove the battery from the tool, press down on the release button on the back of the battery (figure 20) and slide out.

Switch

Always be sure of your footing and grip the Pole Saw firmly with both hands with the 21 thumb and fingers encircling the handle.

To turn the tool ON pull the lock button (1) back with your thumb and then squeeze the trigger (2) with your fingers as shown in figure 21. (Once the tool is running you can release the lock button.) To turn the tool OFF, release the trigger.

Auto-Stop Chain Braking System

Your chain saw is fitted with an auto-stop chain braking system which will stop the chain quickly each time you release the rear trigger, or if kickback should occur. This system should be tested before every use.
