CHAIN OILER
See Figure 15.
 Use premium bar and chain lubricant. It is de-
signed for chains and chain oilers and is formu-
lated to perform over a wide temperature range
with no dilution required.
 Remove the cap and carefully pour approxi-
mately 2 oz. of bar and chain lubricant into the
bar lube reservoir.
 Replace the cap and tighten securely.
 Check and refill the bar lube reservoir every time
the pole saw is used.
NOTE: Do not use dirty, used, or otherwise con-
taminated lubricants. Damage may occur to the
oil pump, bar, or chain.
REPLACING THE BAR AND CHAIN
See Figures 16 - 18.
WARNING:
To avoid possible serious injury, stop the motor
and remove the battery pack before replacing
the bar, chain, or performing any maintenance
operation.
 Remove the combination wrench from the stor-
age area.
 With the combination wrench, remove the chain
cover screw, washer, and chain cover.
 The bar contains a slot that fits over the mount-
ing post. The bar also contains a chain tension-
ing pin hole which fits over the chain tensioning
pin inside the chain cover.
 Place the bar onto the mounting post.
 Fit the chain over the sprocket and into the bar
groove. The cutters on the top of the bar should
face toward the bar tip, in the direction of the
chain rotation.
 Replace the chain cover ensuring that the chain
tensioning pin in the cover is in the chain ten-
sioning pin hole in the bar.

screw counterclockwise until the pin and hole
