chain tension.
Cutting edges on chain are sharp. Use protective
gloves when handling chain.
Maintain proper chain tension always. A loose
chain may jump out of guide bar groove. This may
injure operator and damage chain. A loose chain
will cause the chain, bar, and sprocket to wear
rapidly.
1. Place the pole saw on any suitable flat surface
and loosen the hex nut.
2. Turn the chain tensioning screw clockwise until it
is tight. (See Fig. C)
NOTE: The tension is automatically increased
while the chain tensioning screw is being turned
in a clockwise direction. Then tighten the hex nut
securely.
3. Check the tension set by the chain tensioning
screw. The correct chain tension is reached when
the chain can be raised approx. Half the drivelink
depth from the guide bar in the center. This should
be done by using a gloved hand to raise the chain
against the weight of the machine. (See Fig. D)
Then fully tighten the hex nut.
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 loosen while cutting and lose
proper tension. When the chain becomes loose,
loosen the hex nut, retighten the chain tensioning
screw then retighten the hex nut to properly reset
the chain tension following steps 1 through 3
listed previously.

Assembling and disassembling the power
head (See Fig. E1, E2, E3)
1. Remove the protective cap from the end of the
attachment shaft.
2. To assemble, align the triangle icon on the button
with the arrow label on the attachment shaft.
3. Push the shafts together until you hear a "click".
The edge of the arrow label should be close to
the shaft connection housing. (Note: If the pole
saw working head cannot be fully installed into
the power head, rotate the pole saw working
head a little until it is possible to insert the shaft
fully.)
4. Finish the assembly by tightening the knob
clockwise.
5. To disassemble, loosen the knob, turn counter
clockwise, then press the release button and
pull the shafts apart. Replace the protective cap
on the attachment shaft to ensure that dust and
debris do not get into the shaft.
