Cutting Tips for Pole Chain Saw

CAUTION! Before starting the saw, remove the oil tank cap and add bar & chain oil to the top of the oil level window (Fig. 24). One minute of use will consume approximately 0.15 fl oz (4 ml) of oil. Refill when the oil level drops to 1/4 of a tank.

NOTE: Your pole chain saw head is equipped with an automatic oil pump for bar and chain oiling. You must add bar and chain oil or your pole chain saw will not function.

WARNING! Be sure that the chain is not in contact with any object when you start the motor.

WARNING! Keep hands away from chain. Keep hands on handles. Do not overreach.

A good, firm grip on the tool using both hands will help you maintain control. Place one hand on the soft grip or the auxiliary handle, and the other hand on the handle with your thumbs and fingers encircling the pole and handle. A firm grip combined with proper positioning of the handle against your body will help you maintain control of the saw. Do not let go of the saw while it is in operation.

CAUTION! The chain will continue to run for several seconds after turning off the tool.

Do not use the pole chain saw under wet conditions.

Use extreme caution when cutting small brush, saplings, or limbs under tension because slender and tense material may catch the saw and be whipped toward you, pull you off balance, or spring back.

Do not use the pole chain saw to cut vines and/or small underbrush.

Prior to each cutting session, run through the daily checklist (see pg. 19).

WARNING! Do not cut trees near electrical wires.

WARNING! Failure to lubricate the chain will cause damage to the bar and chain. Use only a good quality bar and chain oil designed specifically for use with chain saws. One minute of use will consume approximately 0.15 fl oz. (4 ml) of oil.

NOTE: It is normal for oil to seep from the saw when not in use. To prevent seepage, empty the oil tank after each use. When storing the unit for a long period of time (3 months or longer), be sure the chain is lightly lubricated; this will prevent rust on the chain and bar sprocket.

WARNING! Kickback may occur when the moving chain contacts an object at the upper portion of the tip of the guide bar or when the wood closes in and pinches the chain saw in the cut (Fig. 25). Contact at the upper portion of the tip of the guide bar can cause the chain to dig into the object and stop the chain for an instant. The result is a lightning-fast reverse reaction, which kicks the guide bar up and back toward the operator. If the chain saw is pinched along the top of the guide bar, the guide bar can be driven rapidly back toward the operator. Either of these reactions can cause loss of saw control, which can throw the operator off balance and result in serious injury. Do not rely exclusively upon the safety devices built into the saw. As a user, you should take several precautions to keep your cutting jobs free from accident or injury.

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.

Basic Cutting Procedure

This unit with the chain saw head is designed for trimming small branches and limbs up to recommended 6.5 in. (16.5 cm), not to exceed a Max. cut of 7.5 in. (19 cm) in diameter depending on type of wood. Practice cutting a few small limbs using the following technique to get the "feel" of using the saw before you begin a major sawing operation.

• Take the proper stance in front of the tree with the saw OFF (Fig. 26).
• Switch on the pole chain saw and let the chain accelerate to full speed before entering the cut.
• Keep the saw running the entire time you are cutting; maintain a steady speed.
• Allow the chain to cut for you; exert only light downward pressure.
• PUSH and PULL - This reaction force is always opposite to the direction the chain is moving when it is in contact with the wood. Thus, the operator must be ready to control the PULL when cutting on the bottom edge of the bar, and PUSH when cutting along the top edge.
• Do not put pressure on the saw at the end of the cut.

Pruning

Pruning is the process of trimming limbs from a live tree.

• Remove long branches in several stages.
• Cut lower branches first to allow the top branches more room to fall.
• When pruning trees, it is important not to make the finishing cut next to the main limb or trunk until you have cut off the farthest lying limb. This will reduce the weight and prevent stripping the bark from the main member.
• Under cut the branch 1/3 through for your first cut. Your second cut should over cut to drop the branch off (Fig. 27). Be prepared to balance the weight of the pole chain saw when the limb falls.
• Now make your finishing cut from the topside of the branch smoothly and neatly against the main member so the bark will grow back to seal the wound.
• Release the On/Off switch as soon as the cut is completed.

Limbing

Limbing is the process of removing branches from a fallen tree.

• You should cut limbs one at a time.
• Cut branches under tension from the bottom up to avoid binding the bar and chain.
• Keep the tree between you and the pole chain saw while limbing.

If the Saw Becomes Pinched or Trapped

1. Wait for the blade to stop, wait five minutes for the saw to cool, remove the battery, and wear gloves to protect your hands from the chain teeth.
2. If you can reach the limb from the ground, lift the limb while holding the saw. This should release the "pinch" and free the saw.
3. If the saw is still trapped, call a professional for assistance.

Maintenance + Care

WARNING! Always remove the battery before performing any adjustments, maintenance, or repairs to your cordless pole chain saw.

• Use protective gloves when handling the bar and chain.
• Keep the bar encased in its sheath, except when working directly on the bar or the chain.
• Never dispose of oils or other polluting materials in unauthorized places.

Chain Tension

Check the chain tension before using the saw when the chain is cold. The correct tension of a cold chain is when there is no slack on the underside of the guide bar; the chain is snug, but you can rotate it by hand without binding.

During normal saw operation, the temperature of the chain will increase. The drive links of a correctly tensioned warm chain will hang approximately 0.050 in. (1.25 mm) out of the bar groove (Fig. 28). Be aware that a chain tensioned while warm, may be too tight upon cooling. Check the "cold tension" before next use. The chain must be re-tensioned whenever the flats on the drive links hang out of the bar groove (Fig. 28).

NOTE: A new chain tends to stretch. Check the chain tension frequently and re-tension as needed.

Nuts and Screws

Periodically check that all the nuts and screws are tightened securely. Check that the telescoping lock and assembly lock are intact and in proper working order.

Chain Sharpening

To maintain optimal blade sharpness and peak performance, Sun Joe recommends model 24V-CSSHRP-LTE Cordless Chain Saw Sharpener, available on sunjoe.com, by phone at 1-866-SNOWJOE (1-866-766-9563) (Fig. 29).

WARNING! To ensure that the saw works safely and efficiently, it is essential that the cutting components are well-sharpened. It is highly recommended to replace the chain once it loses its ability to cut cleanly and safely. It is possible, however, to sharpen the existing chain if the sharpening is carefully performed. Any work on the chain and bar requires specific experience and special tools. For safety purposes, we recommend you contact an authorized Snow Joe® + Sun Joe® dealer or call the All Season Power customer service center at 1-866-SNOWJOE (1-866-766-9563).

Sharpening is necessary when:

• The sawdust looks like dust;
• Cutting becomes more difficult;
• The cut is not straight;
• Vibrations increase.

An authorized service center will sharpen the chain using the right tools to ensure minimum removal of material and even sharpness on all the cutting edges.

If you sharpen the chain yourself, use special round-section files with the right diameter depending on the type of chain (see "Chain Maintenance Table" on pg. 19). You need a certain amount of skill and experience to avoid damaging the cutting edges.

Sharpen the chain as follows (Fig. 30):

• Secure the bar firmly, with the chain mounted, in a suitable vise.
• Tighten the chain if it is loose.
• Mount the file in the guide and then insert it in the tooth at a constant angle from the cutting edge.
• Sharpen in a forward motion a few times and repeat this on all the cutting edges facing the same way (right or left).
• To move the chain forward, use a screwdriver.
• Turn the bar over in the vise and repeat on all the other cutting edges.
• Check that the depth limiter tooth does not stick out farther than the inspection tool and file any projecting parts with a flat file, rounding off the edges (Fig. 30).

After sharpening, remove all traces of filing and dust and lubricate the chain in an oil bath. Replace the chain whenever:

• The length of the cutting edges decreases to 5 mm or less;
• There is too much play between the links and the rivets.

Chain Sprocket

Regularly check the condition of the sprocket and replace it when wear exceeds 0.5 mm (Fig. 31).

Do not mount a new chain with a worn sprocket or vice-versa.

Operation Tips

• Wear non-slip gloves for maximum grip and protection.
• For the best cutting action against walls, fences, and in high grass, move the grass trimmer slowly so grass is cut with the tip of the high speed nylon line.
• Avoid dragging the grass trimmer and string spool hub in contact with the ground.
• Trim only when grass and weeds are dry.

NOTE: As the weather becomes cooler, the tendency for the nylon line to break becomes greater. DO NOT USE WHEN TEMPERATURE IS BELOW 50°F (10°C).

• Cut tall grass from top down.
• If grass becomes wrapped around the string head: Stop the grass trimmer. Remove the battery. Remove the grass.
• Hold the grass trimmer with your right hand on the rear handle and your left hand on the auxiliary handle. The grass trimmer should be held at a comfortable position with the auxiliary handle about hip height.
• To use the edger guide/flower guard, flip it down from its stored position (Fig. 48).

WARNING! Always hold the trimmer away from body. Any contact with the grass trimmer cutting head while operating can result in serious personal injury.

• The life of your nylon line is dependent upon following instructions for proper use, as well as what is being cut, and where the cutting is being done.

WARNING! Remove stones, loose pieces of wood, and other objects from the cutting area. The string continues to rotate for a few seconds after switching off the trimmer. Let the motor come to a complete stop before resuming operation. Do not rapidly switch the trimmer off and on.

Advancing Lines

NOTE: Your trimmer uses 0.055 in. (1.4 mm) diameter nylon line to cut grass and weed quickly and easily. In time, the tip of the nylon line will become worn and the auto-feed mechanism will automatically feed and trim a fresh length of line. The cutting line will wear faster if the cutting is done along sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces, or heavier weeds are being cut.

The grass trimmer + edger is equipped with an auto-feed head. Bumping the head to try to advance the line will damage trimmer.

1. With the unit running, release the ON/OFF switch trigger.
2. Wait two seconds, and press the ON/OFF switch trigger.

NOTE: The lines will extend approximately 1/4 in. with each stop and start of the switch trigger until the lines reach the length of the safety guard.

1. Resume the trimming + edging.

WARNING! Do not operate the grass trimmer + edger in a tree, on a ladder, or on a scaffold; this is extremely dangerous.

WARNING! Do not bump the unit on ground in attempt to feed line or for any other purpose.

Maintenance + Care

WARNING! Make sure to remove the battery before inspecting its parts.

WARNING! Always wear protective gloves during maintenance tasks. Do not carry out maintenance when the motor is running or hot.

• Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean your grass trimmer + edger. Wipe it clean with a dry cloth.
• Plastic parts may be cleaned by using mild soap and a damp rag.
• Always store your grass trimmer + edger in a dry place. Do not allow any liquid to get inside it.
• Keep the motor ventilation slots clean.

IMPORTANT! To ensure product safety and reliability, repairs, maintenance, and adjustments to this power tool should be performed only with identical replacement parts.
