Maintenance and Repair
Never operate a chain saw that is damaged, improperly
adjusted or not completely or securely assembled.
Follow the maintenance and repair instructions in the
appropriate section of this manual.
WARNING !
Always stop the engine and make sure that
the chain is stopped before commencing any
maintenance or repair work or cleaning the saw.
Allow the chain saw to cool off before doing any
maintenance work (burn hazard)!
When the chain saw is hot, do not cover it (with a
tarp, blanket, newspaper or the like).
Let the chain saw cool down before putting it in a
storage case or vehicle.
Chain saws with catalytic converter take longer to
cool down!
Do not attempt any maintenance or repair work
not described in this manual. Have such work
performed by your MAKITA service shop only.
Maintaining and storing the saw
Keep the chain, bar and sprocket clean and lubricated;
replace worn sprockets or chains.
Keep the chain sharp. You can spot a dull chain when
easy-to-cut wood becomes hard to cut and burn marks
appear on the wood.
Keep the chain at proper tension. Tighten all nuts, bolts
and screws except the carburetor adjustment screws
after each use.
Keep spark plug and wire connection tight and clean.
Store saws in a high or locked place, away from
children.
The chain protection cover should always be put on.
