Daily Checklist, Cleaning and
Storing for your Pole Saw
To help maintain your Pole Saw for optimum performance, we
recommend you follow this checklist each time you use your
Pole Saw.
m
WARNING! Do not plug in the power cord until you
have completed all of the daily checks.
INSPECT: Before plugging in the power cord, inspect for any
visible damage to the chain, bar guide, hand guard, or motor
housing.
• Inspect the oil port and bar guide rails and clean them to
remove any debris.
• Check the chain tension.
• Check the chain teeth for sharpness.
• Check the bar and chain oil level, fill with only new chain oil
specifically formulated for chain saws.
NOISES: If you notice anything unusual, such as a vibration or
odd sound, shut the saw OFF immediately. Remove the power
cord and check the saw for any damage.
If you cannot find the cause of the problem or are uncertain
what to do, then have the saw inspected by a qualified repair
shop before using it.
m
CAUTION!
• Remove the power cord and allow the saw to cool for at
least five minutes before servicing or storing.
• If you drop the saw, carefully inspect it for damage. If the
guide bar is bent, housing cracked, or handles broken or
if you see any other condition that may affect the saw’s
operation, DO NOT USE, have your unit serviced.
Cleaning the Pole Saw
Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the saw.
Never let any liquid get inside the motor housing and NEVER
immerse any part of the saw housing into a liquid.
Storage
• Ensure that the plastic bar cover is in place when storing.
• Do not store the saw near chemicals, such as fertilizers,
organic or other solvents. Do not expose brake fluids,
gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating oils,
etc., to the plastic parts of the saw. These products are
often highly corrosive and may cause permanent damage,
weaken, or destroy the plastic to your saw.
• When not in use, your Corded Pole Saw should be stored
indoors in a dry and high or locked-up place, out of reach
of children.
