Using your Makita XAU01PTB pole saw is a breeze. First, make sure you've inserted the 18V LXT batteries correctly into the saw. You're good to go! Hold the saw firmly, use the branch hook to position the branch you want to cut, and then start the saw. The torque boost mode is handy when you're dealing with thick or hard branches - just activate it when needed. When it comes to refilling the bar oil, the large - opening translucent tank makes it easy to see when it's time to add oil. As for maintenance, regularly check the chain tension using the lateral chain tensioning with a single stud. Keep the saw clean, especially after using it in harsh conditions. The XPT technology helps protect the internal parts, but it's still a good idea to wipe off any dust or water. Also, remember to only use genuine Makita batteries and chargers to keep the tool working at its best. And don't forget, the tool, battery, and charger come with a 3 - year limited warranty, so you can use it with peace of mind.
