Transport and storage
‑ When changing your location during work switch off the
chain saw and actuate the chain brake in order to prevent
an inadvertent start of the chain.
‑ Never carry or transport the chain saw with the chain
running.
‑ When the saw is hot, do not cover it (with a tarp, blanket,
newspaper or the like).
Let the saw cool down before putting it in a storage case
or vehicle. Saws with catalytic converter take longer to
cool down!
‑ When transporting the chain saw over long distances the chain
protection cover (delivered with the chain saw) must be applied.
‑ Carry the chain saw with the tubular handle. The guide bar
points backwards (20). Avoid coming in contact with the muffler
(danger of burns).
‑ Ensure safe positioning of the chain saw during car trans‑
portation to avoid fuel or chain oil leakage.
‑ Store the chain saw safely in a dry place. It must not be stored
outdoors. Keep the chain saw away from children. The chain
protection cover should always be put on.
‑ Before storing the chain saw over a long period of time or
shipping it the fuel and oil tanks must be completely emptied.
Maintenance
‑ Before performing maintenance work switch off the chain
saw (21) and pull out the plug cap.
‑ Before starting work always check the operating safety of
the chain saw, in particular the function of the chain brake.
Make sure that the chain is always sharpened and tightened
correctly (22).
‑ Operate the chain saw only at a low noise and emission level.
For this ensure the carburetor is adjusted correctly.
‑ Regularly clean the chain saw.
‑ Regularly check the tank cap for tightness.
Observe the accident prevention instructions issued by
trade associations and insurance companies. Do not
perform any modifications on the chain saw. You will put
your safety at risk.
Perform only the maintenance and repair works described in
the instruction manual. All other work must be carried out by
MAKITA Service.
Use only original MAKITA spare parts and accessories.
Using spare parts other than original MAKITA parts or
accesories and guide bar/chain combinations or lengths which
are not approved bring a high risk of accidents. We cannot
accept any responsibility for accidents and damage resulting
from using sawing devices or accesories which have not been
approved.
