“cutting through”, to maintain complete control reduce the cutting
pressure near the end of the cut without relaxing your grip on the
chain saw handles. Don’t let the chain contact the ground. After
completing the cut, wait for the saw chain to stop before you move
the chain saw. Always stop the motor before moving from cut to cut.

Use only mild soap and damp cloth to clean the tool. Do not use
solvents to clean the plastic housing of the saw. Never let any liquid
get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
IMPORTANT: To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY,
repairs, maintenance and adjustment should be performed
by a DeWALT authorized service center, always using identical
replacement parts.
Regular maintenance ensures a long effective life for your chain saw.

After every few hours of use, remove the sprocket cover, guide bar
and chain and clean thoroughly using a soft bristle brush. Ensure oiling
hole on bar is clear of debris. When replacing dull chains with sharp
chains it is good practice to flip the chain bar from bottom to top.
