2. Never operate while in a tree, in any awkward position
or on a ladder or other unstable surface. You may lose
control of pole saw causing severe injury.
3. Follow directions below to trim a tree.
a. Make sure pole saw is running at full speed before
making a cut. When starting a cut, place moving saw
chain 7 against limb. Hold pole saw firmly in place
to avoid possible bouncing or skating (sideways
movement) of pole saw.
b. Guide pole saw using light pressure. Make first cut 6"
(152 mm) from tree trunk on underside of limb. Use
top of guide bar 6 to make this cut. Cut 1/3 through
diameter of limb. Then make the finish cut from the top.
If you try to cut off thick branches from the bottom, the
branch may close in and pinch the saw chain in the cut.
If you try to cut off thick branches from the top, without
a shallow undercut, the branch may splinter. Do not
force pole saw. The motor will overload and can burn
out. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was intended.
c. Remove pole saw from cut while it is running at full
speed. Stop pole saw by releasing trigger switch
Make sure saw chain has stopped before setting pole
saw down.

• This chain saw requires replacement 8" (203 mm) chain
DWO1DT608.
Saw Chain and Guide Bar
After every few hours of use, remove the sprocket cover,
guide bar and chain and clean thoroughly using a soft bristle
brush. Ensure oiling hole on bar is clear of debris. When
replacing dull chains with sharp chains it is good practice to
flip the chain bar from bottom to top.
Saw Chain Sharpness

CAUTION: Sharp chain. Always wear protective gloves
when handling the chain. The chain is sharp and can
cut you when it is not running.
IMPORTANT: The chain cutters will dull immediately if they
touch the ground, stones, masonry or a nail while cutting.
To get the best possible performance from your chain saw it
is important to keep the teeth of the saw chain sharp. Chain
sharpening services are available from your nearest D
service center.
nOTE: Each time the saw chain is sharpened, it loses some
of the reduced kickback qualities and extra caution should
be used. It is recommended that a saw chain be sharpened
no more than four times.
