Filling The Oil Reservoir

Adjusting Oil Flow Rate

CAUTION!

The oil flow adjusting screw must

be pressed in slightly in order to

turn. Failure to do so could

damage the pump and screw.

CAUTION!

An increase in bar oil flow rate will

speed oil consumption, requiring

more frequent checks on the oil

reservoir. To ensure sufficient

lubrication, it may be necessary to

check the oil level more frequently

than at fuel tank refills.

NOTE:

The oil reservoir has a capacity

sufficient to provide about 40 minutes

of cutting time (when set to deliver

the minimum flow rate, or about as

long as you’ll get from a tank of fuel).

WARNING!

Never fill the oil reservoir nor

adjust the oiler with the engine

running.

IMPORTANT!

The service life of the chain and guide

bar is affected by the quality of the

lubricant. Using superior lubricant such

as Shindaiwa Bar and Chain Oil will help

ensure a long service life, For cold

weather operation, mix bar and chain oil

with an equal part of kerosene.

1. Place the pole pruner on a clean,

flat surface with the oil filler cap

facing up. See Figure 20. Wipe off

any debris from the oil cap and

from around the oil filler neck.

2. Remove the oil filler cap and fill the

reservoir with bar and chain oil,

then replace the cap.

3. Wipe up spilled oil from the unit

before restarting the pole pruner.

The guide bar and chain are lubri-

cated automatically by a pump that

operates whenever the chain rotates.

The pump is set at the factory to

deliver a minimum flow rate, but it can

be adjusted in the field. A temporary

increase in oil flow is often desirable

when cutting materials such as

hardwood or wood with a lot of pitch.

Adjust the pump as follows:

1. Stop the engine and make sure the

stop switch is in the OFF position.

2. Place the unit on its side with the

oil reservoir up. See Figure 21.

3. With a screwdriver, push in on the

oil flow rate adjusting screw and

turn in the desired direction (there

are three incremental settings):

• clockwise–decrease lubrication.

• counter clockwise–increase

lubrication.

Starting the Engine (continued)

WARNING!

Never start the engine from the

operating position.

WARNING!

The cutting attachment may rotate

when the engine is started!

When the Engine Starts...

■ After the engine starts, allow the

engine to warm up at idle 2 or 3

minutes before operating the unit.

■ Advancing the throttle makes the

cutting attachment turn faster;

releasing the throttle permits the

attachment to stop turning. If the

cutting attachment continues to

rotate when the engine returns to

idle, carburetor idle speed should

be adjusted (see the next page).

IMPORTANT!

If the engine fails to start after several

attempts with the choke in the closed

position, the engine may be flooded

with fuel. If flooding is suspected,

move the choke lever to the open

position and repeatedly pull the recoil

starter to remove excess fuel and start

the engine. If the engine still fails to

start, refer to the troubleshooting

section of this manual.

5. When the engine starts, slowly

move the choke lever to the

"OPEN" position. See Figure 26.

(If the engine stops after the initial

start, close the choke and restart.)
