MAINTENANCE

WARNING:

When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.

Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause

product damage.

WARNING:

Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side

shields during power tool operation or when blowing

dust. If operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.

WARNING:

Before inspecting, cleaning, or servicing the unit (except

for carburetor adjustments), shut off engine, wait for all
moving parts to stop, and disconnect spark plug wire
and move it away from spark plug. Failure to follow
these instructions can result in serious personal injury or
property damage.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most

plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.

WARNING:

Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based

products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact

with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken, or
destroy plastic, which may result in serious personal
injury.

Only the parts shown on the parts list are intended to be

repaired or replaced by the customer. All other parts should
be replaced at an authorized service center.

WARNING:

To avoid possible serious injury, never touch or adjust

the chain while the motor is running. The chain is very
