MAINTENANCE
• Check that the throttle control and throttle lock move freely
and that the return springs work properly.
• Start the chain saw and apply full throttle. Release the
throttle control and check that the chain stops and
remains stationary. If the chain rotates when the throttle
control is in the idle position you should check the
carburettor idle adjustment.
Chain catcher
Check that the chain catcher is not damaged and is firmly
attached to the body of the chain saw.
Right hand guard
Check that the right hand guard is not damaged and that there
are no visible defects, such as cracks.
Vibration damping system
Regularly check the vibration damping units for cracks or
deformation.
Make sure the vibration damping units are securely attached
to the engine unit and handle unit.
Stop switch
Start the engine and make sure the engine stops when you
move the stop switch to the stop setting.
Muffler
Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler.
Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to the
machine.
Some mufflers are equipped with a special spark arrestor
mesh. If your machine has this type of muffler, you should
clean the mesh at least once a week. This is best done with a
wire brush. A blocked mesh will cause the engine to overheat
and may lead to serious damage.
