CHAIN LUBRICATION:
Always make sure the automatic oiler system is working
properly. Keep the oil tank filled with Talon Chain, Bar and
Sprocket Oil.
Adequate lubrication of the bar and chain during cutting
operations is essential to minimize friction with the guide
bar.
Never starve the bar and chain of lubricating oil. Running
the saw dry or with too little oil will decrease rapid cutting
efficiency, shorten saw chain life, cause rapid dulling of
the chain, and lead to excessive wear of the bar from
overheating. Too little oil is evidenced by smoke or bar
discoloration.

PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
SERVICING A DOUBLE INSULATED APPLIANCE
In this double-insulated appliance, two systems of insula-
tion are provided instead of grounding. No grounding
means is provided on a double-insulated appliance, nor
should a means for grounding be added to the appliance.
There are no owner serviceable parts inside. A double-
insulated appliance is marked with the words, “DOUBLE
INSULATION” or “DOUBLE INSULATED”. The symbol
(square within a square) may also be marked on the appli-
ance.
Any service must only be carried out by a qualified tech-
nician at an authorized service centre.
1.
Place switch in “OFF” position and unplug the power
supply before the appliance is serviced, cleaned or
maintenance is performed.
2.
Keep air intake clean and air vents free of debris to
avoid overheating the motor.
3.
Clean with a damp sponge and mild soap. Do not
squirt with water, hose with water or other liquids.
4.
No lubrication is necessary as the motor is equipped
with lifetime lubricated bearings.
5.
If the saw does not operate, turn switch to “OFF”
position and disconnect extension from power supply
first, then from blower. Check power supply for blown
fuses or tripped circuit breakers. Do not attempt to
repair it yourself. There are no serviceable parts
inside.
