■ Ensure that the blade does not come into contact with the
ground or surface during transportation. DO NOT drop the
blade on ground or surface.
■ The engine governor is designed to permit maximum engine
speed in a no-load condition. Speeds that exceed this limit
may cause the blade to exceed the maximum safe allowable
speed.
■ Ensure that the blade is mounted for proper operating
direction.
Saw Maintenance (Cleaning)
■ ALWAYS clean the saw before maintenance or repair.
■ DO NOT use aggressive cleaners (i.e. containing solvents).
DO NOT use high pressure water jets, aggressive detergents
or solutions and liquids with a temperature exceeding 86 F.

■ Use a cloth which may be lightly moistened only for removing
dust and dirt. Hard packed dirt can be removed with a soft
brush.
■ NEVER let water, cleaning liquid or vapor penetrate into the
electric motor, connectors, plugs, and switches. When
cleaning cover all apertures or openings on all electrical
components.

rinse dirt and incrustations away. Be particularly careful not
to spray water on sensitive parts of of the saw (e.g. electric
