CLEANING & STORAGE
1. Brush or blow dust and debris out of the air vents using compressed air or a vacuum. Keep the air
vents free of obstructions, sawdust, and wood chips. Do not spray, wash, or immerse the air vents in
water.
2. Wipe off the housing and the plastic components using a moist, soft cloth. Do not use strong
solvents or detergents on the plastic housing or plastic components. Certain household cleaners may
cause damage, and may cause a shock hazard.
3. Routinely clean out the dust and debris that gathers under the tension housing, the oil outlet, and
around the bar and the chain sprocket. Otherwise it can jam up the sprocket, the chain, and the
lubrication system.
