5.Bottom Pipe Support (2): Always hold the Polesaw/Pruner firmly with both hands. Keep your left hand on the front portion of the Bottom Pipe Support and your right hand on the rear portion of the Bottom Pipe Support, so that your body is to the left of the chain line. Never use a left-handed (cross-handed) grip or any stance which would place your body or arm across the chain line.
(See Figure B.)
6.Power Switch (10)/Throttle Lever (8): The Power Switch is a simple “ON”/ OFF” rocker type switch. Squeezing the Throttle Lever controls the speed at which the tool runs. (See Figure B.)
7.Engine Assembly: The Polesaw/Pruner features a 1 Horsepower, 26cc, single cylinder,
(See Figure B, and refer to the
8.Shoulder Harness (14): Always wear the Shoulder Harness for increased safety and to support the Polesaw/Pruner. (See Figure B.)
9.Primer (87A): The Engine (1), when cold, must be primed with fuel prior to to starting the unit. To do so, simply press inward on the Primer three to four times with your index finger. Then, proceed with starting the unit.
(See Figure B.)
10.Chain Tension Adjusting Screw (39): The Chain (74) is properly tensioned when there is no slack on the underside of the Guard Bar (73). The Chain should be snug, but should turn by hand without binding. To adjust the tension of the Chain, turn off the Engine (1). Slightly loosen the Nut (75) on the Chain Saw
Cover (77). Remove all slack from the Chain by turning the Chain Tension Adjusting Screw clockwise, making sure the Chain seats into the Bar Guard groove during tensioning. Lift the tip of the Bar Guard up to check for sag. Release the tip of the Bar Guard, and turn the Chain Tensioning Screw 1/2 turn clockwise. Repeat this process until sag does not exist. Then, retighten the Nut. NOTE: If the Chain is too tight, it will not rotate. Loosen the Nut slightly and turn the Chain Tension Adjusting Screw 1/4 turn counterclockwise. Lift the tip of the Bar Guard up to check for proper tension. Then retighten the Nut.
(See Figure B.)
11.Saw Chain (74): To avoid possible injury, never touch or adjust the Chain while the Engine (1) is running. The Chain is very sharp. Always wear heavy duty work gloves when performing maintenance to the Chain. Adjust the Chain tension only when the Chain is cold. Chain tensioning while warm may be too tight upon cooling. IMPORTANT: The cutters on the top of the Guard Bar should face toward the Guard Bar tip, in the direction of the chain rotation. (See Figure B.)
