Transport and storage

- When changing your position during work switch off the
chain saw and actuate the chain brake in order to prevent
an inadvertent start of the chain.
- Never carry or transport the chain saw with the chain
running.
- When transporting the chain saw over long distances the
guide bar protection cover (delivered with the chain saw)
must be applied.
- Carry the chain saw with the tubular handle. The guide bar
indicates backwards (20). Avoid to come in contact with
the muffler (danger of burning).
- Ensure safe positioning of the chain saw during car trans-
portation to avoid fuel or chain oil leakage.
- Store the chain saw safely in a dry place. It must not be
stored outdoors. Keep the chain saw away from children.
- For storing the chain saw over a long period of time or
shipping it the fuel and oil tanks must be completely
emptied.

Maintenance

- Before performing maintenance works switch off
the chain saw (21) and pull out the plug cap.
- Before starting work always check the operating safety of
the chain saw, in particular the function of the chain
brake. Make sure that the chain is always sharpened and
tightened correctly (22).
- Operate the chain saw only at a low noise and emission
level. For this ensure the carburetor is adjusted correctly.
- Regularly clean the chain saw.
- Regularly check the tank cap for tightness.
Observe the accident prevention instructions issued
by the trade federations and insurance companies.
Do not perform any modifications on the chain saw.
You will risk your safety.
Perform only the maintenance and repair works described
in the instruction manual. All other works must be carried
out by the SOLO service.
Use only original SOLO spare parts and accessories.
Applying spare parts which are not original SOLO parts or
accesories and guide bar/chain combinations or lengths
results in a high risk of accidents. For accidents and damage
resulting from using sawing devices or accesories which
have not been approved we cannot accept any
responsibility.
