VI. MAINTENANCE
6.1- 50-hour Maintenance
Every 50 hours of operation (more frequently in dusty or dirty conditions):
1. Remove and clean the cylinder cover and clean dirt and debris from the cylinder cooling fins.
2. Remove the sprocket cover and inspect the sprocket for excessive dirt, debris, or wear.
Remove the guide bar and clean out the guide bar groove.
3. If the sprocket is excessively worn, replace it with a new one. (See Fig.PP15)
4. Lubricate the gear case. To perform this operation, first remove the gear case from the upper
outer tube as follows (See Fig.PP16):
- Follow "Disassembling the pole sections" section to remove the upper tube from the gearcase.
- Using a lever-type grease gun, pump lithium-base grease (about 10 grams) into the grease fitting
until you see old grease being purged from the gear case, this can be seen in the outer tube cavity.
Clean up excess grease, and then reassemble the gear case onto the outer tube
5. Use a wire hook to extract the fuel filter from inside the fuel tank (See Fig.PP17).
! Make sure you do not pierce the fuel line with the end of the hooked wire. The line is

delicate and can be damaged easily.
Inspect the fuel filter element for signs of contamination.
Replace it with a new one if required. Before reinstalling the filter, inspect the fuel line.
If you find damage or deterioration, remove the unit from service until it can be inspected by a
trained service technician.

6.2- Sharpening the chain
When the cutting edges of the blade become dull, they can be re-sharpened with a few strokes of a
file.
In order to keep the blade in balance, ail cutting edges must be sharpened equally.
In addition, inspect the chain for correct adjustment (more frequently with a new chain).
The chain should feel snug but still pull freely. See Fig.PP18
