Saw Chain and Guide Bar
After every few hours of use, remove the sprocket cover,
guide bar and chain and clean thoroughly using a soft bristle
brush. Ensure oiling hole on bar is clear of debris. When
replacing dull chains with sharp chains it is good practice to
flip the chain bar from bottom to top.
Saw Chain Sharpness
CAUTION: Sharp chain. Always wear protective gloves
when handling the chain. The chain is sharp and can
cut you when it is not running.
iMPORTAnT: The chain cutters will dull immediately if they
touch the ground, stones, masonry or a nail while cutting.
To get the best possible performance from your chain saw it
is important to keep the teeth of the saw chain sharp. Chain
sharpening services are available from your nearest D
service center.
nOTE: Each time the saw chain is sharpened, it loses some
of the reduced kickback qualities and extra caution should
be used. It is recommended that a saw chain be sharpened
no more than four times.
