Cutting Tips for Pole Chain Saw
m
CAUTION!
• Before starting the saw, remove the oil tank cap and add
bar & chain oil to the top of the oil level window (Fig. 24).
One minute of use will consume approximately 0.15 fl oz
(4 ml) of oil. Refill when the oil level drops to 1/4 of a tank.
NOTE: Your pole chain saw head is equipped with an
automatic oil pump for bar and chain oiling. You must add
bar and chain oil or your pole chain saw will not function.

WARNING!
Be sure that the chain is not in contact with
any object when you start the motor.
m
WARNING!
Keep hands away from chain. Keep hands
on handles. Do not overreach.
A good, firm grip on the tool using both hands will help you
maintain control. Place one hand on the soft grip or the
telescoping pole, and the other hand on the handle with your
thumbs and fingers encircling the pole and handle. A firm grip
combined with proper positioning of the handle against your
body will help you maintain control of the saw. Do not let go of
the saw while it is in operation.
m
CAUTION!
The chain will continue to run for several
seconds after turning off the tool.
Do not use the 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 pole chain saw to cut vines and/or small
underbrush.
Prior to each cutting session, run through the daily checklist
(see pg. 18).
