56-VOLT LITHIUM-ION POLE SAW — PS1000/PS1000-FC 31
CHAIN MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Always wear gloves when handling the saw chain. The chain is
sharp and may contain burrs.
Only use low-kickback chains on this saw. This fast-cutting chain will provide kickback
reduction when properly maintained.
A properly sharpened saw chain cuts through wood effortlessly, even with very little
pressure.
Never use a dull or damaged saw chain. A dull saw chain cutter leads to increased
physical strain, increased vibration load, unsatisfactory cutting results and increased
wear.
For smooth and fast cutting, the saw chain needs to be maintained properly. When
the wood chips are small and powdery, the chain must be forced through the wood
during cutting, or the chain cuts to one side are the indicators that the chain requires
sharpening. During maintenance of your saw chain, consider the following:
◾
Improper ling angle of the side plate can increase the risk of a severe kickback.
◾
Raker (depth gauge) clearance. Too low increases the potential for kickback. Not low
enough decreases cutting ability.
◾
If cutter teeth have hit hard objects, such as nails and stones, or have been abraded by
mud or sand on the wood, have the chain sharpened by a qualied service technician.
NOTICE: Inspect the drive sprocket for wear or damage when replacing the chain. If
signs of wear or damage are present in the areas indicated, have the drive sprocket
replaced by qualied service technician.
