Replacing the Saw Chain (Fig.D - G)
WARNING: Sharp moving chain. To prevent accidental
operation, ensure that battery is removed from the tool
before performing the following operations. Failure to
do this could result in serious personalinjury.
CAUTION: Sharp chain. Always wear protective gloves
when handling the chain. The chain is sharp and can
cut you when it is notrunning.
CAUTION: The chain speed of this product is 4.4 m/s.
Only use chains that are rated at greater than 4.4 m/s.
1. Place the saw on a flat, firmsurface.
2. Remove sprocket cover
8
as described in Installing the
Guide Bar and Saw Chainsection.
3. To remove the saw chain
5
, rotate the chain tension
screw
10
in the front of the housing using the flat
screwdriver end of the wrench. Turning the screw
counterclockwise allows the guide bar
4
to recede
and reduces the tension on the chain so that it may
beremoved.
4. Wearing protective gloves, grasp the saw chain and lift
the worn saw chain out of the groove in the guidebar.
5. Ensure guide bar is installed with the bar tip guard

positioned as shown in Fig.G.
6. Place the new chain in the slot of the guide bar, making
sure the saw teeth are facing the correct direction by
matching the arrow and graphic of the saw chain on the
sprocket cover shown in Fig.G.
Chain Oiling (Fig.I)
1. A high quality bar and chain oil or SAE30 weight motor
oil should be used for saw chain
5
and guide bar
4
lubrication. The use of a vegetable based bar and chain
oil is recommended when pruning trees. Mineral oil is
not recommended because it may harm trees. Never
use waste oil or very thick oil. These may damage your
polesaw.
2. Lubricate the whole saw chain evenly before each
use as shown in FigureI. Also lubricate the saw chain
whenever replacing a fully discharged battery with a fully
chargedone.

4
with light force from the middle
finger and thumb as shown in Fig.G. There should be no
sag” between the guide bar and the saw chain on the
underside as shown in Fig.F.
2. To adjust saw chain tension, loosen bar lock nut

.
4. Check saw chain tension, adjust ifneeded.
5. Do not over‑tension the saw chain as this will lead to
excessive wear and will reduce the life of the guide bar
and saw chain. Overtensioning also reduces the amount
of cuts you will get per battery charge.
6. Once saw chain tension is correct, tighten bar lock nut
untilsnug
.
7. A new chain stretches slightly during the first few hours
of use. It is important to check the tension frequently
(after disconnecting battery remove the battery pack)
during the first twohours ofuse.
