15 STORING A CHAIN SAW
Caution
: never store a chain saw for longer than 30 days without performing the following
procedures. Storing a chain saw for longer than 30 days requires storage maintenance.
Unless the storage instructions are followed, fuel remaining in the carburetor will evaporate,
leaving gum-like deposits. This could lead to difficult starting and result in costly repairs.
Remove the fuel tank cap slowly to release any pressure in tank. Carefully drain the fuel
tank.
Start the engine and let it run until the unit stops to remove fuel from carburetor.
Allow the engine to cool (approx. 5 minutes).
Using a spark plug wrench, remove the spark plug.
Pour 1 teaspoon of clean 2-cycle oil into the combustion chamber. Pull starter rope slowly
several times to coat internal components. Replace spark plug. (Fig.19)
Note: store the unit in a dry place and away from possible sources of
ignition such as a furnace, gas hot water heater, gas dryer, etc.

Pull starter rope briskly to clear excess oil from combustion chamber.
Clean and gap spark plug or install a new spark plug with proper gap.
