Maintenance and Storage
Maintenance of the saw chain and chain bar
1. Air cooling system
Dust clogging around the cooling system and the cylinder fins will cause overheating of the engine.
Periodically check and clean the cooling system and the cylinder fins with a brush after removing
the cylinder cover, the air cleaner and the recoil case. When installing the cylinder cover and the
cooling system, make sure that switch wires and grommets are positioned correctly in place.
NOTE!
Be sure to unblock the air intake hole.
Cutter setting guidance
WARNING!
Be sure to wear safety gloves.
Maintenance and Storage
Maintenance of the saw chain and chain bar (continued)
Before filing:
1. Make sure the saw chain is held securely.
2. Make sure the engine is stopped.
3. Use a round file with the proper size for your chain
Note: Chain type: Oregon 91PJ063X File size: 5/32 in (4.0 mm)
Place your file on the cutter and push straight forward. Position the file position as illustrated.
After every cutter has been set, check the depth gauge and file it to the proper level as illustrated.
Make sure every cutter has the same length and angle as illustrated.
Chain Bar
1. Reverse the bar occasionally to prevent partial wear.
2. The bar rail should always have parallel internal faces (see diagram). Check for wear of the
bar rail. Apply a ruler to the bar and the outside of a cutter. If a gap is observed between them,
the rail is normal. Otherwise, the bar rail is worn. Such a bar needs to be corrected or replaced.
Storage the chainsaw before empty the lubrication tank and fuel tank.
