GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
The warranty on this unit does not cov-
er items that have been subjected to
operator abuse or negligence. To re-
ceive full value from the warranty, the
operator must maintain unit as instruct-
ed in this manual. Various adjustments
will need to be made periodically to
properly maintain your unit.
• Once a year, replace the spark plug,
air filter element, and check guide
bar and chain for wear. A new spark
plug and air filter element assures
proper air-fuel mixture and helps
your engine run better and last long-
er.

plug before performing maintenance
except for carburetor adjustments.
