CAUTION: Protective gloves must be worn.
Regularly inspect the bearing surfaces of the guide bar for
damage, and clean them with a suitable tool.

return sprocket bearings regularly (once a week). To do this, fi rst
thoroughly clean the 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 acces-
sories.
