Cleaning
Warning: cutting edges of chain are sharp, use protective gloves when handling chain.

Keep your machine clean, the outside of the machine can be cleaned using a damp soft
cloth with a mild detergent if required, never use water to clean the machine as it may
cause damage to internal parts.

Some maintenance products and solvents may damage the plastic parts, these include
products containing benzene, trichloroethylene, chloride or ammonia.

Care of guide bar
Uneven bar wear causes most guide bar problems, incorrect sharpening of chain cutter and
depth gauge settings often cause this, when bar wears unevenly, it widens guide bar groove,
this causes chain clatter ad river popping. Saw will not cut straight, replaces guide bar if this
occurs.
Inspect guide bar before sharpening chain. A worn or damaged guide bar is unsafe. A worn or
damaged guide bar will damage chain, it will also make cutting harder.
