MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:

Dull or improperly sharpened chain can cause excessive
engine speed during cutting, which may result in severe
engine damage.

ATTACHING THE STORAGE HANGER

See Figure 25.
There are two ways to hang the attachment for storage.

To use the hanger cap, push in the button and place the

hanger cap over end of the lower end attachment shaft.
Slightly rotate the cap from side to side until the button
locks into place.

The secondary hole in the attachment shaft can be used

for hanging purposes as well.

STORING THE PRUNER

Clean the pruner thoroughly and lubricate before

storing.

Store the pruner in a dry, well-ventilated place that is

inaccessible to children.

Keep away from corrosive agents such as garden chemi-

cals and de-icing salts.

Always place the scabbard on the cutting blade before

storing or when the pruner is not in use.
