Cordless Pruning Saw EN
MOUNTING THE SAW CHAIN
1. Unpack all parts carefully. Remove the Housing-
Cover by turning the Housing-Cover Knob in a
counterclockwise direction. (See Fig. A1)
2. Place the pruning saw on a solid, level surface.
3. Use only genuine Worx Chains or those
recommended for Guide Bar.
4. Slide the Chain in the slot around the Guide Bar.
Ensure the Chain is in correct running direction by
comparing it to the chain icon on the Guide Bar, or
referring to the chain direction symbol found on
the saw body. (See Fig. A2)
5. Fit the Chain onto the Drive Sprocket, so that the
Fastening Bar Bolt and the Bar Locating Tab on
the Bar Pad fit into the keyway of the opening on
the Guide Bar. (See Fig. B1, B2)
6. Assure all parts are seated properly. Make
sure the drive links are fully seated in the Drive
Sprocket (See Fig. C1), avoiding a kink as shown
in Fig. C2. If kink occurs, pick up the Chain at the
Guide Bar just ahead of the kink and then pull the
kink out.
NOTE: Chain should rotate freely and be free
of kinks.
7. Fit the Chain Cover and tighten the Chain Cover by
turning the Housing-Cover Knob clockwise until it
is tight. (See Fig. D)
WARNING: The Chain is not yet tensioned.
Tensioning the Chain applies as described
under “TENSIONING CHAIN”. The Chain now needs
to be inspected to make sure it is properly
tensioned.
TENSIONING CHAIN (See Fig. E1, E2, E3)
NOTE: New saw chains will stretch. Check the chain
tension frequently when first used and tighten when
the Chain becomes loose around the Guide Bar.
WARNING:
• Removing the battery pack before adjusting
saw chain tension.
• Cutting edges on chain are sharp. Use
protective gloves when handling chain.
• Maintain proper chain tension always. A
loose chain will increase the risk of kickback.
A loose chain may jump out of guide bar
groove. This may injure operator and damage
chain. A loose chain will cause chain, bar, and
sprocket to wear rapidly.
1. Place the pruning saw on any suitable flat
surface.
2. Loosen the Housing-Cover Knob a bit to loosen
the Chain Cover lightly.
3. Adjust the chain tension. Turn the Chain
Tensioning Screw clockwise to tighten. (See Fig.
E1)
4. The correct chain tension is reached when the
Chain can be raised approx. half the drivelink
depth from the Guide Bar in the center. (See Fig.
E2)
5. Tighten the Housing-Cover Knob to secure the
Chain Cover. (See Fig. E3)
NOTE: The Chain is properly tensioned when it
can be lifted off of the Guide Bar and the drivelink
is within the rail of the Guide Bar.
NOTE: The chain will naturally stretch and lose
proper tension under general use. To re-tention,
repeat steps 1-5 listed above.
ASSEMBLING THE EXTENSION POLE
Align and insert the handle of extension pole into
the shaft. Rotate the Locking Knob clockwise to lock.
(See Fig. F1, F2)
NOTE: Make sure that the shaft is firmly locked in
place.
ASSEMBLING THE EXTENSION POLE TO THE
MACHINE (See Fig F3, F4)
Step 1: Align and insert the extension pole into the
saw.
Step 2: Hang the buckle on the hook of the saw. Press
the Clamping Lever to tighten the extension pole to
the machine.
NOTE: Make sure the extension pole is locked into
position securely before operation.
REMOVING THE EXTENSION POLE (See Fig. F5)
Loosen the Clamping Lever to release the buckle.
Press the Extension Pole Release Button to
disconnect the extension pole with the saw.
WARNING! When using this machine with the
Extension Pole, make sure that the battery pack
has been removed.
LUBRICATION
NOTE: Chain life and cutting capacity depend
on optimum lubrication. Therefore, the chain
should be oiled before operation.
IMPORTANT It is important to use bar and
chain lubricant that is formulated to perform
over a wide temperature range with no dilution
required. This can be found at the location where
you purchased this saw or your local hardware
store. Do not use dirty, used or otherwise
contaminated oil. Damage may occur to the bar or
chain. Use of non-approved oil will void the
warranty.
Do not swallow. If swallowed, call a physician
immediately. Keep out of reach of children. Store
away from heat or open flame.
1. Switch off the pruning saw and remove the
battery.
2. Place the pruning saw on a level surface with the
Housing-Cover facing up.
3. Clean the Guide Bar and Chain with a soft brush or
solvent.
