ASSEMBLE 3 Assemble the shoulder strapper 4 Fill lubrication oil i. Push the oil bottle cap and unscrew it, and add proper lubrication oil. Note: Make sure the oil level is between Min and Max. ii. Tighten the oil bottle cap.
ASSEMBLE 5 Charging the battery NOTE: This battery pack has been shipped in a low charge condition. It should be fully charged before first use. Make sure the main voltage is the same as rating label which located on the charger. WARNING! The charger and battery pack are specifically designed to work together so do not attempt to use any other devices. Never insert or allow metallic objects into your charger or battery pack connections because an electrical failure and hazard will occur.
ASSEMBLE Connect the mains plug with charger (7) to the charger base (8) . 1. Plug the charger into an appropriate AC power outlet. The LED lights green to tell you that the charger is ready for use. 2. Slide the charger base (8) into the battery pack (6), make sure the charger base is fully seated in the battery pack. The LED lights up red to tell you that the battery pack is on charge. 3. The battery pack will be fully charged in 1 hour.
ASSEMBLE WARING! Don’t allow any liquid to get inside charger. Electric shock may result. To facilitate the cooling of the battery pack after use, avoid placing the charger or battery pack in a warm environment such as in a metal shed, or an un-insulated trailer. CAUTION! Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, return to a service center for recycling; do not put it into further use.
OPERATE Telescopic handle adjustment i. Lift the clamping lever and extend upper part of handle to desired handle length. Then push the clamping lever to fix the tube tight. Install battery pack i. Keep the battery pack in line with the holder on the device. ii. Push it forward until it reaches the bottom. Before starting make sure the battery pack is firmly locked in place. Remove the battery from product i. Press the battery pack release button (A) downward, A ii.
OPERATE Attention! The battery cannot be charged immediately after use, it should cool off for a period of time. The LED lights switching from green to red means it can be charged. Switch on/off NOTE: Hold the pole saw away from yourself using both hands. Stand in a secure and stable position. i. Push safety switch (10) forward, and press the on/off switch (14) to turn the product on. ii. Release the on/off switch (14) to turn the product off.
OPERATE Chain Tension 1. Loosen tension wheel (5) before adjusting chain. 2. Turn the adjusting wheel (6) until slack is out of chain. 3. Wearing protective gloves, pull down on chain to check chain tension 4. Do not over-tension chain. Over-tensioning will cause excessive wear and will reduce the life of the guide bar and chain. Over-tensioning also reduces the amount of cuts per battery charge. 5. After chain tension is correct, tighten tension wheel (5) firmly.
OPERATE Pruning Warning! Always turn off the motor before laying down the machine! Risk of recoil! Recoil is caused by wood or other firm objects coming into contact with the top side or the tip of the saw rail. This may cause the machine to be thrown back with force at the operator, which may cause serious injuries.
OPERATE Push sawing This technique involves sawing with the top side of the saw rail from bottom to top. The sawing chain pushes the machine backward toward the operator. If the saw rail becomes jammed, the machine may be thrown back toward the operator with great force. If the operator is unable to counterbalance the backward pushing force of the sawing chain by his own body weight, only the tip of the sawing chain may be in contact with the wood, which may cause a recoil.
MAINTENANCE This product does not contain any parts that can be repaired by the consumer. Contact an authorised service centre or a similarly qualified person to have it checked and repaired. WARNING! Always switch the product off, disconnect it from the battery pack and let the product cool down before performing inspection, maintenance and cleaning work! General cleaning i. Switch the product off, disconnect it from the battery pack and let it cool down. ii.
MAINTENANCE Change the chain and bar i. Loosen tension wheel (A). Remove chain cover with adjusting wheel together. A Loosen Tighten ii. Fit the chain around the bar ensuring that the direction of the chain is as depicted in the picture on the bar. Fit the chain on the sprocket. cutting edges guide bar nose B Note: Make sure cutting edges of chain are facing in right direction. Make sure the tension guide plate (B) is facing outside. cutting edges chain slide Change the chain and bar i.
MAINTENANCE 5. After chain tension is correct, tighten tension wheel (5) firmly. NOTE! When tensioned correctly it should be possible to pull one full chain link free of the bar channel with ease. - A new chain will expand its length during the first period of use. Check and re-adjust the tension frequently as a loose chain can easily derail or cause rapid wear of itself and the chain bar.
MAINTENANCE diagram). Check for wear of the bar rail. Apply a ruler to the bar and the outside of a cutter. If a gap is observed between them, the rail is normal. Otherwise, the bar rail is worn. Such a bar needs to be corrected or replaced. Sharpening Saw Chain Keep chain sharp. Your saw will cut faster and more safely. A dull chain will cause undue sprocket, guide bar, chain, and motor wear. If you must force chain into wood and cutting creates only sawdust with few large chips, chain is dull.
MAINTENANCE Filing Cutter Depth Gauges The cutter depth gauge clearance is reduced as cutters are sharpened. After every second or third sharpening, reset cutter depth gauges. 1. Place depth gauge tool (.025”) firmly across top of two cutters. Make sure depth gauge enters slot in depth gauge tool. 2. Use medium flat file. File depth gauge level with depth gauge tool. 3. Remove depth gauge tool. With flat file, round off front corner of cutter depth gauge.
MAINTENANCE Recycling and disposal i. Waste electrical products should not be disposed of with household waste. Please recycle where facilities exist. Check with your Local Authority or local store for recycling advice. ii. The product comes in a packaging that protects it against transportation damage. Keep hold of the packaging until you are sure that all the parts have been delivered and the product is functioning properly. Recycle the packaging afterwards. iii.
