Questions & Answers
When i get my pole saw in i see that i will need bar & chain oil put in. Do i need anything else before i use it?
Hello, Kimmi - Yes. Besides adding bar & chain oil, we recommend the following: - Assemble the three poles before use: remove the four rubber cord protectors, slide/connect the poles until they click, and tighten the collars. Do not connect to power until assembly is complete. - Have an extension cord and use the built‑in cord retainer (loop the cord through the retainer and remove slack) before plugging in. - Wear proper protective gear: eye protection with side shields (ANSI Z87.1) and head protection, plus heavy long pants, long sleeves, boots, and gloves. Keep bystanders at least 50 ft away. When adding bar and chain oil, fill the reservoir with about 2 ounces of oil. Check and refill the reservoir each time you use the saw, and check the oil level about every 20 minutes during operation. If you need further support, then feel free to ask another question. You can also contact us by phone at 1.800.525.2579, Monday - Friday from 9am to 6pm (EST), or via email when you visit us at https://www.ryobitools.com/support/contact.
