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, lubricant, grease, etc., firmly to maintain control.
• 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 may result in serious personal injury.
LUBRICATION
• All of the bearings in this product are lubricated with a sufficient amount of high grade
lubricant for the life of the unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further
lubrication is required.
W A R N I N G
• When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a
hazard or cause product damage.
• Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields during power tool operation
or when blowing dust. If the operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
W A R N I N G
• Never start the motor before installing the guide bar, chain, bar cover, and bar nuts.
Without all these parts in place, the clutch can fly off or explode, exposing the user to
possible serious injury.
W A R N I N G
• To avoid serious personal injury, read and understand all the safety instructions in this
section.
• Before performing any maintenance, make sure the battery is removed. Failure to heed this
warning could result in serious personal injury.
W A R N I N G
• Always wear gloves when handling the bar and chain; these components are sharp and
may contain burrs.
• Never touch or adjust the chain while the motor is running. The saw chain is very sharp;
always wear protective gloves when performing maintenance to the chain to avoid possible
serious lacerations.
NOTE: When replacing the guide bar and chain, always use the specified bar and chain listed in
the bar and chain combinations section later in this manual.
