maintenance or cleaning. Failure to do so could result
in serious personal injury. You may only make

chain brake and other safety features to not function
correctly, thus increasing the potential for serious injury.

checking and adjustment.

for security to ensure the machine is in safe working
condition. Any part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced by a service station.

Always lightly oil the chain when storing to prevent
rust. Always empty the oil tank when storing to prevent
leakage.
Stop the machine, remove the battery, and allow it to
cool before storing or transporting.

Fit the guide bar cover before storing the machine or
during transportation.

against movement or falling to prevent injury to persons
or damage to the machine.
