STORING THE PRODUCT
See Figure 22.
 Clean all foreign material from the product. Store
idle unit indoors in a dry, well-ventilated area
that is inaccessible to children. Keep away from
corrosive agents such as garden chemicals and
de-icing salts.
 Always place the scabbard on the saw bar
when transporting or storing the pole saw. The
scabbard is a snug fit and must be attached
very carefully due to the sharp teeth on the saw
chain. This is best done by grasping the scab-
bard at one end, in the center portion of the
scabbard, and carefully sliding it over the chain
as shown. Use caution to avoid the sharp teeth
of the chain.
