Transport and storage

• When changing your location during work switch off the chain saw and
actuate the chain brake in order to prevent an inadvertent start of the chain.
• Never carry or transport the chain saw with the chain running. When the
saw is hot, do not cover it (with a tarp, blanket, newspaper or the like). Let
the saw cool down before putting it in a storage case or vehicle. Saws with
catalytic converter take longer to cool down!
• Use the chain protection cover during transport and storage.
• Carry the chain saw with the front handle. The guide bar points backwards. Avoid
coming in contact with the muffler (danger of burns).
• Ensure safe positioning of the chain saw during car transportation to avoid fuel
leakage, damage or injury.
• Store the chain saw safely in a dry place. It must not be stored outdoors. Keep
the chain saw away from children.
• Before storing the chain saw over a long period of time or shipping it, the fuel and
oil tanks must be completely emptied.
• Perform cleaning and maintenance before storage.
Maintenance
• Before performing maintenance work switch off the chain saw and pull out
the plug cap.
• Before starting work always check the operating safety of the chain saw, in
particular the function of the chain brake. Make sure that the chain is always
sharpened and tightened correctly.
• Operate the chain saw only at a low noise and emission level. For this ensure the
carburetor is adjusted correctly.
• Regularly clean the chain saw.
• Regularly check the tank cap for tightness.
• Observe the accident prevention instructions issued by trade associations
and insurance companies.
• Do not perform any modifications on the chain saw. You will put your safety
at risk.
• Perform only the maintenance and repair works described in the instruction
manual. All other work must be carried out by Makita Service.
• Use only original Makita spare parts and accessories.
• Using spare parts other than original Makita parts or accessories and guide
bar/chain combinations or lengths which are not approved bring a high risk
of accidents. We cannot accept any responsibility for accidents and damage
resulting from using sawing devices or accessories which have not been
approved.
