4. Inspect the saw chain for proper tension before each use and
frequently during cutting. Sharpen as required.
5. Clean the guide bar and bar pad to ensure free passage for oil.
6. Turn the bar over after each use to achieve even wear.
7. No motor lubrication is necessary. The motor is equipped with
lifetime lubricated bearings.
8. If the chainsaw does not operate, turn the switch to the OFF
position and disconnect the extension cable, first from the power
supply, then from the chainsaw. Check the power supply for blown
fuses or tripped circuit breakers. If it still does not operate, contact
the Talon Product Service Department by calling the free number
listed on the back cover of this manual to ask for service
information. Do not attempt to repair the chainsaw yourself. There
are no serviceable parts inside.
