the guide bar.
Never starve the bar and chain of lubricating oil.
Running the saw dry or with too little oil will decrease
cutting efficiency, shorten saw chain life, cause rapid
dulling of chain, and lead to excessive wear of bar
from overheating. Too little oil is evidenced by smoke
or bar discoloration.
7.3 Storage
Caution: Never put a chain saw into storage for
longer than 30 days without carrying out the following
steps.
Storing a chain saw
Storing a chain saw for longer than 30 days requires
storage maintenance. Unless the storage instructions
are followed, fuel remaining in the carburetor will
evaporate, leaving gum-like deposits. This could lead
to difficult starting and result in costly repairs.
1. Remove the fuel tank cap slowly to release any
pressure in tank. Carefully drain the fuel tank.
2. Start the engine and let it run until the unit stops to
remove fuel from carburetor.
3. Allow the engine to cool (approx. 5 minutes).
4. Remove the spark plug (7.2.4).
5. Pour 1 teaspoon of clean 2-cycle oil into the
combustion chamber. Pull starter rope slowly
several times to coat internal components.
Replace spark plug (Fig. 25).
Note: Store the unit in a dry place and away from
possible sources of ignition such as a furnace, gas hot
water heater, gas dryer, etc.
Puttig the saw back into operation
1. Remove spark plug (see also point 7.2.4).
2. Pull starter rope briskly to clear excess oil from
combustion chamber.
3. Clean the spark plug and check that the electrode
gap is correct.
4. Prepare unit for operation.
5. Fill fuel tank with proper fuel / oil mixture. See Fuel
and Lubrication Section.
