Notes:
All instructions regarding maintenance and cleaning

vere property or personal damages. If this work cannot
be carried out by the user themselves, see a specialist
dealer.
The product should be thoroughly cleaned after each
use.
• Only carry out cleaning and maintenance work to
the extent specified in this operating manual. Fur-
ther work must be carried out by qualified special-
ists.
14.1 Cleaning
1. We recommend that you clean the product directly
after every use.
2. Use a brush or hand brush to clean the saw chain
and no liquids.
3. Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and
free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling
and control of the tool in unexpected situations.
4. If necessary, clean the handles with a damp cloth
washed in soapy water.
5. Keep protective devices, air vents and the motor
housing as free of dust and dirt as possible. Rub
the product clean with a clean cloth or blow it off
with compressed air at low pressure. We recom-
mend that you clean the product directly after ev-
ery use.
6. Ventilation openings must always be free.
7. Do not use any cleaning products or solvents; they
could attack the plastic parts of the product. Make
sure that no water can penetrate the product interi-
or.

14.2.1 Maintaining the air filter (Fig. 4)
DANGER
Risk of fire and explosion!
If not cleaned correctly, fuel may ignite and even ex-
plode. This can lead to severe burns or death.
– Only clean the air filter by knocking it out.
– Never clean the air filter with petrol or flammable
solvents.
ATTENTION

Risk of damage!

Operating the engine without a filter element or with
a damaged filter element can cause engine damage.
– Never run the engine without the air filter element
or with a damaged filter element. This would al-
low dirt into the engine, which would result in se-
vere damage to the engine.
ATTENTION
Fouled air filters diminish the engine output
due to reduced air supply to the carburet-
tor. Regular inspection is therefore essen-
tial.
Note:
The air filter should be checked every 25 operating
hours and cleaned as required. The air filter must be
checked more often in case of very dusty air.
1. Remove the air filter cover (3) by opening the clip
fasteners (3a).
