before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. An accidental
start-up can causeinjury.

WARNING:Use only battery packs andchargers.
Inserting and Removing the Battery Pack
from the Tool (Fig. B)
NOTE: Make sure your battery pack
6
is fullycharged.
To Install the Battery Pack into the Tool Handle
1. Align the battery pack
6
with the rails inside the tool’s
handle (Fig. B).
2. Slide it into the handle until the battery pack is firmly seated
in the tool and ensure that you hear the lock snap intoplace.
To Remove the Battery Pack from the Tool
1. Press the release button
24
and firmly pull the battery pack
out of the toolhandle.
2. Insert battery pack into the charger as described in the
charger section of thismanual.
Fuel Gauge Battery Packs (Fig. B)
Some battery packs include a fuel gauge which consists
of three green LED lights that indicate the level of charge
remaining in the batterypack.
To actuate the fuel gauge, press and hold the fuel gauge
button
27
. A combination of the three green LED lights will
illuminate designating the level of charge left. When the level
of charge in the battery is below the usable limit, the fuel gauge
will not illuminate and the battery will need to berecharged.
NOTE: The fuel gauge is only an indication of the charge left on
the battery pack. It does not indicate tool functionality and is
subject to variation based on product components, temperature
and end‑userapplication.
Installing and Removing Saw Chain
(Fig. A, C–E)

WARNING: Sharp moving blade. To prevent accidental
operation, insure that battery is disconnected from the
handle before performing the following operations. Failure
to do this could result in serious personal injury.

CAUTION: Sharp moving blade. Always wear protective
gloves when installing or removing the chain. The chain is
sharp and can cut you when it is notrunning.
1. Place the pole saw on a firm surface. Rotate the two
hex head screws
12
counterclockwise with the hex
wrench 
16
provided.
2. Remove sprocket cover
11
, bar clamp
10
, and hex
headscrews.
3. To remove the saw chain
14
, rotate the screw
19
in the
front of the housing using the flat screwdriver end of the
wrench. Turning the screw counterclockwise allows the
guide bar
13
to recede and reduces the tension on the
chain so that it may beremoved.
4. Lift the worn saw chain out of the groove in the guidebar.
5. Flip guide barover.
6. To replace the saw chain, check to make sure that the slot in
the guide bar is over the location pins
20
shown in Fig.E and
that hole below the slot is located over the adjustmentpin.
7. Place new chain in groove of guide bar and around
sprocket. Make sure saw teeth are facing correct direction by
matching the graphic onhousing or guidebar.
8. Rotate the screw in the front of the housing clockwise to
increase the chaintension.
9. Replace sprocket cover, bar clamp, and hex headscrews.
10. Follow the instructions in the section Adjusting
ChainTension.
Adjusting Chain Tension (Fig. A, C, D, F, G)
1. With the pole saw still on a firm surface check the saw
chain
14
tension. The tension is correct when the saw
chain snaps back after being pulled 3 mm away from the
guide bar
13
with light force from the middle finger and
thumb as shown in Fig.F. There should be no “sag” between
