MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the bat-
tery cartridge is removed before carrying out any work
on the tool.
• Always wear gloves when performing any inspection or
maintenance.
• Please have your saw chain sharpened at a Makita
Authorized Service Center or replace with a new one if
your saw chain does not cut correctly.
Cleaning guide bar (Fig. 16)
Chips and sawdust will build up in the guide bar groove,
clogging it and impairing oil flow. Always clean out the
chips and sawdust when sharpening or replacing the saw
chain.
Storing tool
Clean the tool before storing. Remove any chips and
sawdust from the tool after removing the chain cover.
After cleaning the tool, run it under no load. Then remove
the battery cartridge from the tool and lubricate the saw
chain and guide bar.
To maintain product safety and reliability, repairs, mainte-
nance or adjustment should be carried out by a Makita
Authorized Service Center.
