WARNING!
Failure to lock the telescopic pole cam-lock
as directed could result in personal injury.
Tightening the Bolt
The retaining bolt may need tightening to secure the telescopic
pole in place.
1. Unclip the cam-lock. Using a hex key wrench, tighten the
cam-lock nut, then close the cam-lock. Ensure that the
pole is secure. The wrench may be required to loosen the
cam-lock nut if you need to adjust the pole to a different
height (Fig. 23).
Adjusting the Multi-Angle Head
The pole chain saw head can be rotated for different
cutting angles: 0º or 30º.
1. Turn off the switch.
2. Press the multi-angle head adjustment button to loosen
the head (Fig. 24).
3. Adjust the head to the desired position (Fig. 25).
Cutting Tips
Proper Cutting Stance
• Balance your weight with both feet on solid ground.
• Your body should always be to the left of the chain line.
• The most typical cutting application is to position the
unit at an angle of 60° or less depending on the specific
situation (Fig. 26). As the angle of the pole chain saw shaft
to the ground increases, the difficulty of making the first
cut (from the underside of limb) increases.
