18.1 Preparing for Transportation or Storage

WARNING
To reduce the risk of personal injury from unintended
activation or unauthorized use, shut off the engine and
engage the chain brake before transporting the chain saw or
putting it down. To reduce the risk of injuries from the sharp
cutters on the chain, always cover the guide bar with the
chain scabbard before transporting or storing the saw.
To prepare the saw for transportation or storage:
► Shut off the engine, @ 15.
► Release the chain brake and loosen the chain, @ 12.2.
► Re-engage the chain brake.
► Slide a chain scabbard over the guide bar so that it covers
the entire guide bar.
► Before using the saw, remember to re-tension the chain.
NOTICE
The chain contracts as it cools down. Failing to loosen the
chain after finishing work can damage the drive shaft and
bearings.

19 Transporting

19.1 Transporting the Chain Saw

When transporting the chain saw:
► Slide a chain scabbard over the guide bar so that it covers
the entire guide bar.
► When transporting the saw by hand, hold it by the front
handle with the guide bar pointing backwards, opposite
the direction in which you are walking. Place the muffler
away from the body.
► When transporting the saw in a vehicle, cover the guide
bar with a chain scabbard. Secure and position the chain
saw to prevent turnover, fuel spillage, impact and
damage.
Your saw comes standard with a chain scabbard that
matches the cutting attachment. If you use guide bars of
different lengths on the saw, the length of the chain
scabbard must be matched to the guide bar to reduce the
risk of injury. It should cover the full length of the guide bar.
