ASSEMBLY IMPORTANT:This lithium-ion battery is equipped with an internal circuit breaker which will automatically shut off the power to the tool and then reset itself once cooled. Follow these steps if an overload occurs while under heavy use: 1. Release the trigger. Restart tool by pulling the safety lock-out button back and depressing trigger. 2. Under some conditions, the battery may need to be removed for approximately 1 minute. This allows it to be cooled, reinstall for use. Handle Pole Threaded Base Threaded Base Extension Pole Collar Collar Power Head Pole CONNECTING THE POLES Before using the pole saw, assembly is required. When removed from the box, there are three parts. • Remove packaging material and discard. • Insert the extension pole into the handle pole and slide together. • Lower the collar on the extension pole to the threaded base on the handle pole and rotate clockwise to secure. • Repeat this process to attach the extension pole to the power head pole. Oil Reservoir Cap C I RIC Quick View Oil Indicator ADDING BAR AND CHAIN LUBRICANT Use a bar and chain lubricant (not included) with this product. It is designed for chains and chain oilers, and is formulated to perform over a wide temperature range with no dilution required. • Remove oil cap. • Carefully pour the bar and chain oil into the tank. • Wipe off excess oil. Replace oil cap. • Check and fill the oil tank when quick view oil indicator is below the second to last indicator line. • Repeat as needed. NOTE: This 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. Do not use dirty, used or otherwise contaminated oils. Damage may occur to the bar or chain. 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. IMPORTANT: To preserve natural resources, please recycle or dispose of oil properly. Consult your local waste authority for information regarding available recycling and/disposal options. 9
