STORING YOUR SAW
Chemicals and moisture in the atmosphere will attack an
unprotected saw. Remove the chain and store in a con-
tainer of oil. Clean the guide bar and wrap it in oiled
paper or an oily rag. Add a fuel stabilizer, such as
STA-BILB, to fuel according to directionson the stabilizer
can. Fill fuel tank to the top. Run engine forafewseconds
on this
mixtyre and stop engine by pushing the choke
lever all the way up (instead of using the switch). Apply
auto wax to painted exterior surfaces of the engine. Store
engine and bar in a cool dry place, away from garden
chemicals, fertilizers and de-icing salts.
NOTE:
If fuel
stabilizer is not available, or the saw must be stored in an
area constituting a fire hazard, the fuel tank must be
completely emptied of fuel prior to storage.
