Never store the saw with any fuel
remaining in the tank, fuel lines, or
carburetor! Your Shindaiwa warranty
does not include coverage for damage
caused by “stale” or contaminated
fuels!
(over 30 days)
Thoroughly clean the saw exterior.
Remove all chips and other debris from
the cylinder fins and cooling passages.
CAUTION!
Drain the fuel tank, and then clear the
carburetor and lines by running the saw
until it stops from lack of fuel.
Drain any remaining bar oil from the oil
reservoir.
Remove the spark plug, and then pour
1/4-oz of 2-cycle mixing oil into the
cylinder through the spark plug hole.
Before reinstalling the spark plug,
slowly pull the recoil starter 2-3 times to
distribute the oil over the cylinder walls.
Long Term Storage
Remove, clean, and reinstall the air
filter element as described under “Daily
Maintenance.”
Repair or replace any damaged
components as required, and then store
the unit in a clean, dry, dust-free area.
Protect the chain by using a chain
cover.
