MAINTENANCE

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts.
Most plastics are susceptible to damage from
various types of commercial solvents and may be
damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove
dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline,
petroleum-based products, penetrating oils,
etc., come in contact with plastic parts.
Chemicals can damage, weaken or destroy
plastic which could result in serious personal
injury.
REPLACING BAR AND CHAIN
See Figures 24 - 29.
Remove the battery pack from the chain saw and
make sure the chain has stopped before you do
any work on the saw. Failure to do so may result
in accidental starting and possible serious injury.
To avoid serious personal injury, read and under-
stand all the safety instructions in this section.
Never touch or adjust the chain while the motor
is running. The saw chain is very sharp; always
wear protective gloves when performing main-
tenance to the chain to avoid possible serious
lacerations.
Always wear gloves when handling the bar and
chain; these components are sharp and may
contain burrs.
