and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
• KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
• REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to see that adjusting
wrenches are removed from the saw before turning it on.
• KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Clear work area of branches and limbs after every cut. Cluttered
areas invite accidents.
• DON'T USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don't use power tools in damp or wet locations.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Warning: Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.
Warning: Don't expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electrical shock.
Warning: To reduce the risk of electric shock, use only with an extension cord intended for
outdoor use, such as an extension cord of cord type SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A,
SJOW-A, SJTW-A. or SJTOW-A.
Extension Cords
• Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause
a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size
to use depending on cord length and nameplate Ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
• Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFIC) protection should be provided on the circuits or outlets to
be used for this Pole Saw. Receptacles are available having built-in GFIC protection and maybe
used for this measure of safety.
• Use only UL listed extension cords. Inspect extension cord before use and never use damaged
or altered extension cords. Follow extension cord manufacturer safety instruction.
• To reduce the risk of disconnection of appliance cord from the extension cord during operating
use the plug-receptacle retaining straps provide or make a knot with the two cords as shown
in Table 2.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from the outlet.
• Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electrical shock.

CUTTING WITH THE POLE SAW
1. Connect Pole Saw to extension cord.
2. Connect extension cord to power supply.
3. Use both hands to grip Pole Saw. Use only
designated grip areas when operating Pole
Saw. Use firm grip. Thumbs and fingers must
wrap around Pole Saw handle and pole.
4. Make sure your footing is firm. Keep feet
apart. Divide your weight evenly on both feet.
5. (SEE FIGURE 20) When ready to make a cut, press in trigger switch lock-out and squeeze trigger
switch. This will turn Pole Saw on. Releasing trigger switch will turn Pole Saw off.
6. Make sure Pole Saw is running at full speed before starting a cut.
7. When starting a cut, place moving chain against wood. Hold Pole Saw firmly in place to avoid
possible bouncing or skating (sideways movement) of Pole Saw.
8. Guide the Pole Saw using light pressure. Do not force Pole Saw. It will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was intended.
9. Remove Pole Saw from a cut with Pole Saw running at full speed.
10. Stop the Pole Saw by releasing trigger.
11. Make sure chain has stopped before setting Pole Saw down.
Switch Lock-out
Switch
• Do not add too much tension to the chain; this will create excessive wear and will cause a
reduction in the usable life of the chain and bar.
• After chain tension is correct, tighten guide bar knob firmly. If not, guide bar will move and
loosen chain tension. This will increase the risk of kickback. This can also damage Pole Saw.
Note: A new chain will stretch. Check new chain after first few minutes of operation. Allow
chain to cool down. Re-adjust chain tension.
WARNING: Do not extend Pole Saw handle above shoulder height.
CAUTION: Seek professional help if facing conditions beyond your ability.
Trimming a tree (pruning) is the process of cutting limbs from a living tree.
Make sure your footing is firm. Keep feet apart. Divide your weight evenly on both feet.
Follow directions below to trim a tree.

SAW CHAIN TENSION ADJUSTMENT
WARNING: Unplug Pole Saw from power source before adjusting saw chain tension.
WARNING: Cutting edges on chain are sharp. Use protective gloves when handling chain.
WARNING: Maintain proper chain tension always. A loose chain will increase the risk of kickback.
A loose chain may jump out of guide bar groove. This may injure operator and damage chain. A
loose chain will cause chain, guide bar, and sprocket to wear rapidly.
• Allow chain to cool down before re-adjust chain tension.
• Before adjusting chain, loosen the guide bar knob, making sure it is only finger tight.
• Use the hex key to tighten the guide bar adjusting bolt (refer to Figure 6)
• The chain tension is correct when the chain returns to the bar guard after being pulled 1/8"
from the chain bar. (refer to Figure 7)
• Insure that there is no gap between the guide bar and the chain.

WHILE OPERATING POLE SAW
• Stay alert. Use common sense while operating the unit.
• Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas invite injuries.
• Be aware of extension cord while operating Pole Saw. Be careful not to trip over cord.
• Keep cord away from chain and operator at all times.
• Keep children, animals, and bystanders away from Pole Saw and extension cord.
• Only Pole Saw operator should be in work area.
• Do not use the Pole Saw to cut down trees.
• Do not use near power lines. Keep at least 50 feet away from Electrical lines.
• Grip Pole Saw securelyó one hand on the trigger, the other on the pole.
• Before starting Pole Saw, make sure chain is not in contact with anything.
• Do not allow the Pole Saw to become in contact with grounded objects such as pipes, fences,
and metal posts.
• Keep all parts of body away from chain when Pole Saw in running.
• Do not force Pole Saw while cutting. Apply light pressure. It will perform better and more safely
at the rate for which it was intended.
• When cutting a limb that is under tension, use extreme caution. Be alert that the wood may
spring after it is cut. When wood tension is released, limb could spring back and strike operator
causing severe injury or death.
• Carry Pole Saw from one place to another with unit unplugged; holding the pole at its balance
point (close to saw end), with guide bar and chain to rear.
• Do not cut small brush and saplings with the Pole Saw. Small branches may catch in the chain
and be whipped towards the operator and could pull the operator off balance.
KICKBACK
WARNING: Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide bar touched an object, or
when the wood closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut.
In some cases when the tip makes contact it may cause a fast reverse reaction, kicking the guide
bar up and back towards the operator. Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may
push the guide bar rapidly back towards the operator. Either of these reactions may cause you to
lose control of the Pole Saw which could result in serious injury to use.
• Kickback Safety Devices On This Pole Saw. The Pole Saw has a skip chain and low kickback
guide bar, these reduce the chance of kickback. Kickback can still occur with this Pole Saw.
• When operating the tool use both hands - one gripping the trigger and the other gripping the
pole. Use a firm grip.
• Thumbs and fingers must wrap around trigger and pole.
• Keep all safety items in place on Pole Saw. Make sure they work properly.
• Do not overreach or extend arms above shoulder height.
• Keep solid footing and balance at all times.
• Never try cutting through two branches at the same time. Only cut one at a time.
• Do not bury guide bar nose or try to cut by boring the guide bar nose into the wood.
• Watch for shifting of wood or other forces that may pinch chain.
• Use extreme caution when re-entering a previous cut.
• Use low-kickback chain and guide bar supplied with the Pole Saw. Only use replacement parts
listed for the Pole Saw.
• Never use dull or loose chain. Keep chain sharp with proper tension.
