Gas pole saw. very niCe tool however,
if we are talking tree trimming pole saw
1 be sure not pinch the saw blade by cutting too sharp of an angle
2 if it gets pinched dont just let go and think your gonna catch it, what you might catch is a pole saw up-side the head.
3 be very careful as with any saw they cut deep and fast.

Congratulations on getting you a new gas pole saw! A gas pole saw is undoubtedly the most powerful of pole saw types. It uses gas for operation, heavy-duty bars, and chains and is effective for a longer working period. Since it is the most powerful; you can put your faith for pruning heavier and larger branches and trees.
So, you have chosen rightly. But, it is a matter of concern, if you do not know how to use a gas pole saw. Let us help you with this matter.
BEFORE YOU START

  • Make sure that the pole saw is safe and prepared to be used. The faulty ones can lead to a serious accident.
  • Clear the area where you would use your pole saw and where the limbs would fall. Any hazard should be cleared at once.
  • Be aware of the weather because the windy or rainy weather can turn your pruning into a dreadful experience.
  • Cut only one limb at a time
  • Avoid cutting branches that are thicker than 8 inches. Take expert's help in this matter.
  • Be aware of the kickbacks.
  • Always maintain the right balance and base. Hold the saw firmly and stay at your place rigidly.
These instructions should be taken into account before the start of trimming. After you follow the instructions given above, it is time to move towards pruning process. The steps below lay out how to use a gas pole saw.
STEP 1 As you hold the grip of your pole saw and make a balance of your position, make few jump cuts underneath the branch you want to cut off. Jump cuts are a necessary technique which is used before the final cut. It reduces the weight of the branch that makes the final cut easier. It can be physically challenging to cut from underneath. So, always pick a pole saw equivalent to your weight bearing capability.
STEP 2 Extend the height of the pole saw based on the height of the branch. Hold the pole saw vertically, take it up to the branches away from the ground and never forget to hold it properly. Adjust its position and let it rest on the branches. In the meantime, you can ensure your position too. Always keep the pole saw at your chest level.
STEP 3 Now, begin to cut perpendicular to the limb and try to make deep cuts as much as you can. Deep cuts will let you make the final cut and other cuts easier. It will also allow you to make faster cutting strokes. Readjust your position, and the pole saw if you face any trouble.
STEP 4 The last step is all about your safety. Check where the limbs are falling and move from that place as early as possible.
Do not lose hope if you fail the first time. Keep trying until you reach your full potential. Clean the work area after trimming is done. So, this is how you can use a gas pole saw. Keep pruning and stay safe!

Chain adjuster on Maxtra pole saw problem

Contact Jack's Small Engines for parts.

https://www.jackssmallengines.com/equipment/pole-saw

The Bar adjustment is normally a nut that screws onto a fixed threaded bolt. My advice would be to replace the nuts with Nyloc nuts and grip washers or use Loctite Red on what you have.

I can zoom in on this image, but the resolution isn't good enough to see the bar fixing clearly.

How do I pick the perfect pole saw?

Want to saw up high, but think it's dangerous to saw on a ladder? Good thinking. So how can you get your saw to reach those high branches while keeping your feet planted on the ground?

Take a lightweight chainsaw, add a stick, and you get a pole saw.
TYPE There are three types of pole saw. You can choose any one of them based on your requirements.
CORDLESS POLE SAW Cordless pole saws are said to be the handiest pole saw as it removes the hassle of carrying wires and cords during pruning. It operates through a rechargeable battery. But, due to its battery pack, its operation time is very specific. If you want to extend the time for heavy duties, you can use extra battery packs.
One of the best advantages of cordless pole saw is its need for low-maintenance. You would hardly need to maintain its well-being.
GAS POWERED POLE SAW Gas powered pole saws are mostly chosen by the professionals for its heavy-duty bars and chains and have the power to cut huge and large branches with ease. This pole saw can be extended up to 9 inches so you might distinguish its expertise in trimming high rise trees. It is good for regular use. It is heavier than the electric one and noisy also. Despite being heavy, you would not face any problem working with it as the pole saw is easy to balance.
ELECTRIC POLE SAW Electric pole saws are preferred for small branches trimming as it has blades of 6"-10". It weighs about 10 pounds that means you can carry the saw effortlessly. It does not require high maintenance as well. Plug the long extension cord before you start, aim at the branches and begin pruning with this electric pole saw.

I had to replace all my gas line on my Poulan 446t i need someone that knows how they hookup

Typical fuel system and a couple of tips. Leave the carburetor connections a little long so they can be swapped if need be. I think the upper most connection goes to the bleeder.

I think this is an IPL for your pole saw: (there are others, this may not be your saw):

The IPL (exploded parts list) for your saw is the only detail for fuel line routing and it is sketchy at best; components are listed but may be on different illustrations.

Have pole with 8inch saw and will it work for 14in saw

If you have a Remington pole saw, then no you cannot not get a bigger saw to fit the pole you have. The pole was only designed to fit and support the weight of the saw it came with.
