The guide bar has a sprocket at its tip. The sprocket must
be lubricated weekly with a grease syringe to extend the
guide bar life (Fig. P3 & P4). Turn the nose sprocket (P-3)
while pumping the translucent yellow, translucent red or
translucent grease into the lubricating hole (P-4) until the
entire sprocket has new grease. Do not push dirt into the hole.

CHAIN MAINTENANCE
Use only low-kickback chains on this saw. This fast
cutting chain will provide kickback reduction when
properly maintained.
A properly sharpened saw chain cuts through wood
effortlessly, even with very little pressure. Never use a
dull or damaged saw chain. A dull saw chain cutter leads
to increased physical strain, increased vibration load,
unsatisfactory cutting results, and increased wear.
For smooth and fast cutting, the chain needs to be
maintained properly. The chain requires sharpening when
the wood chips are small and powdery, the chain must be
forced through the wood during cutting, or the chain cuts
to one side. During maintenance of your chain, consider
the following:
◾
Improper filing angle of the side plate can increase the
risk of a severe kickback.
◾
Depth gauge clearance. Too low increases the potential
for kickback. Not low enough decreases cutting ability.
◾
If cutter teeth have hit hard objects, such as nails and
stones, or have been abraded by mud or sand on the
wood, have the chain sharpened by a qualified service
technician.
NOTICE:
it is recommended to have sharpening and
maintenance of the saw chain performed by authorized
service centers.
