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 2 mm hole at the tip of the guide bar, and then press in a small amount of multi-purpose grease.

The Makita UC 3000 is an excellent choice for light to medium-duty tasks. It sports a 3000-watt motor, providing ample power for trimming branches, cutting firewood, and general garden maintenance. One of its key features is the tool-less chain tensioning system, which allows users to adjust the chain quickly and safely without the need for additional tools. The UC 3000 is equipped with an automatic chain lubrication system that ensures the chain runs smoothly and maintains optimal performance. Weighing relatively light, this model promotes user comfort and reduces fatigue during prolonged use.

Moving up in power, the Makita UC 3500 delivers a robust 3500-watt motor. This model is well-suited for more demanding jobs, such as cutting larger trees or heavy-duty landscaping tasks.
