Lubricating Drive Sprocket
1. Unplug the chain saw from the power source.
Note:
It is not necessary to remove the saw
chain to lubricate the guide bar sprocket tip.
2. After about every ten uses, clean
the guide bar sprocket tip.
3. Using disposable lube gun (not included), insert
needle nose into the lubrication hole and inject
grease until it appears at the outside edge
of the sprocket tip. See Figure 16, right.
4. Make sure to switch Pole Saw off and rotate the saw
chain by hand. Repeat the lubrication procedure
until the entire sprocket tip has been greased.
5. Check drive sprocket. If it is worn out or damaged,
have it replaced by a qualified service technician.
cleaning Guide bar Rails
1. Remove side cover, guide bar and saw chain.
2. After every ten regular uses, take a screwdriver
or putty knife (not included) and clear residue
from the rails on the guide bar. This will keep the
oil passages open to provide proper lubrication
to the bar and chain. See Figure 17, right.
3. Reinstall the bar, chain (adjust tension),
sprocket cover and bar bolt retaining nuts.
