19.1 Transporting the Chain Saw
When transporting the chain saw:
► Slide a chain scabbard over the guide bar so that it covers
the entire guide bar.
► When transporting the saw by hand, hold it by the front
handle with the guide bar pointing backwards, opposite
the direction in which you are walking. Place the muffler
away from the body.
► When transporting the saw in a vehicle, cover the guide
bar with a chain scabbard. Secure and position the chain
saw to prevent turnover, fuel spillage, impact and
damage.
Your saw comes standard with a chain scabbard that
matches the cutting attachment. If you use guide bars of
different lengths on the saw, the length of the chain
scabbard must be matched to the guide bar to reduce the
risk of injury. It should cover the full length of the guide bar.
20.1 Storing the Chain Saw
WARNING
Store the chain saw indoors in a dry, secure place that
cannot be accessed by children or other unauthorized users,
@ 5.4. Improper storage can result in unauthorized use and
damage to the chain saw, @ 5.4.
When storing the saw short-term:
► Wait for the engine to cool down.
► Keep the machine with a full tank of fuel in a dry place,
well away from sources of ignition, until you need it again.
When storing the saw for three months or longer:
► Drain and clean the fuel tank in a well ventilated area.
Dispose of fuel properly in accordance with local
environmental requirements.
► Run the engine until it shuts off. The carburetor will be dry.
This helps prevent the carburetor diaphragms from
sticking together.
► Remove the chain and guide bar.
► Clean and spray the guide bar with a resin solvent, such
as STIHL Resin Remover and Lubricant.
► Clean the saw, @ 21.1.
► Clean the air filter, @ 21.3.
► Fill up the chain oil tank, @ 11.2.
► Store the saw indoors in a dry and secure location, out of
the reach of children and other unauthorized persons.
