    • A
      Anna AdamsJul 31, 2025
      Your Craftsman Pole Saw might not be starting due to several reasons: the battery pack may not be properly attached, so ensure it is securely connected. Alternatively, the battery pack could be discharged, in which case you should remove and charge it. If the battery pack is damaged, replace it with an identical one.

      Ms. Tracie SmithAug 13, 2025
      If your Craftsman Pole Saw's motor runs and the chain rotates but it doesn't cut, the chain is likely dull, so sharpen it. Another possibility is that the chain is on backwards, so reverse the direction of the chain.

      If your Craftsman Pole Saw is running hot and emitting smoke, it could be due to a couple of reasons. First, check if the chain oil reservoir is empty and refill it with the correct oil. Another potential cause is the chain tension being too tight; in this case, adjust the chain tension.

      Cassandra MartinAug 22, 2025

    • C
      Cindy CarpenterAug 26, 2025
      Excessive vibration, noise, or exhaust in your Craftsman Pole Saw could be attributed to several factors: a dull or damaged saw chain, in which case you should sharpen or replace the saw chain; loosen bolts/nuts, so tighten them. The oil may also be incorrect, so empty out any unused oil and refill with the correct oil.
