    How to fix a Remington RM4050 Pole Saw that won't charge?

      Mr. Joshua Johnson MDAug 14, 2025
      If the Remington Pole Saw battery isn't charging, first ensure the charger is plugged into a working 120V 60Hz AC outlet. Also, make sure the battery is fully inserted into the charger. The battery and charger should be between 32° and 104° F (0° and 40° C); allow them to warm up or cool down if needed. If problems persist, the battery or charger may be defective; consult the Warranty section for replacement information.

Also, check the assembly of the guide bar and saw chain, referring to the 'Removing and Installing the Guide Bar and Saw Chain' section for correct installation.
