Cleaning the inside of the sprocket guard CAUTION: Before doing any work on the guide bar or chain, always switch off the engine and pull the plug cap off the spark plug (see „Replacing the spark plug"). Always wear protective gloves! CAUTION: Start the chain saw only after having assembled it completely and inspected. Remove the sprocket guard (1) (see PUTTING INTO OPERATION for the correct model) and clean out the interior with a brush. Remove the chain (2) and guide bar (3). NOTE: Make sure there are no residues or foreign matter remaining in the oil guide groove (4) or on the chain tensioner (5). To install the guide bar, saw chain, and sprocket guard, see 5 PUTTING INTO OPERATION for the correct model. NOTE: The chain brake is a very important safety device and like any other component subject to normal wear and tear. 1 Regular inspection and maintenance are important for your own safety and must be done by a MAKITA service centre. 4 32 SERVICE Cleaning the guide bar CAUTION: Protective gloves must be worn. Regularly inspect the bearing surfaces of the guide bar (7) for damage, and clean them with a suitable tool.
