5. UNIT ASSEMBLY & OPERATION Polesaw Attachment Pole Saw Assembly EN The pole saw attachment requires that the gear case be mounted to the shaft. The shaft is marked with "SF-PS". One end of the inner shaft is splined, while the other end is square. As with all of the attachments, the square end is designed to fit into the shaft coupler. The splined end is where the gear case mounts. Loosen the locator screw (1) and set screw (3). Insert the shaft tube into the gear case. Because the splines may not immediately align - it requires the shaft to be rotated until the splines align and the shaft seats in the gear case. When properly installed - the decal indicating proper assembly will appear as indicated : Pole Saw Operation Before proceeding with this section, BE SURE YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE GENERAL WARNINGS AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 3.
