Cleaning the brake band and sprocket interior

CAUTION: Before doing any work on the guide bar or chain, always switch off the engine and pull the plug cap off the spark plug (see "Replacing the spark plug"). Always wear protective gloves!

CAUTION: Start the chain saw only after having assem- bled it completely and inspected!

Remove the sprocket guard (4) (See "PUTTING INTO OPER- ATION" figs. A and B) and clean the sprocket interior with a brush.

Turn the chain tightener screw (5) to the left (counterclock- wise) until you feel resistance.

Remove the chain (3) and guide bar (2).

NOTE:

Make sure that no residue or contaminants remain in the oil guide groove (1) and the chain tightener (6).

For replacing the guide bar, chain, and sprocket see "PUTTING INTO OPERATION".

NOTE:

The chain brake is a very important safety device and like any other component subject to normal wear and tear.

Regular inspection and maintenance are important for your own safety and must be done by a MAKITA service center.

B

Cleaning the guide bar, lubricating the sprocket nose

CAUTION: Protective gloves must be worn.

Regularly inspect the bearing surfaces of the guide bar for damage, and clean them with a suitable tool.

If the saw is used intensively it will be necessary to lubricate the return sprocket bearings regularly (once a week). To do this, first thoroughly clean the 0.08" (2 mm) hole at the tip of the guide bar, and then press in a small amount of multi- purpose grease.

Multi-purpose grease and grease guns are available as accessories.

Multi-purpose grease	(order no. 944 360 000)
Grease gun	(order no. 944 350 000)
