Maintenance
1. Have your equipment serviced by our autho-
rized service center, always using only genu-
ine replacement parts. Incorrect repair and poor
maintenance can shorten the life of the tool and
increase the risk of accidents.
2. Before doing any maintenance or repair work
or cleaning the tool, always switch off the tool
and remove the battery cartridge. Wait until the
tool cools down.
3. Always wear protective gloves when handling
the saw chain.
4. After each use, tighten all screws and nuts,
except for adjustment screws.
5. Keep the saw chain sharp. If the saw chain
has become blunt and cutting performance is
poor, ask Makita authorized service center to
sharpen it or replace it with new one.
6. Do not attempt any maintenance or repair
not described in this instruction manual. Ask
Makita authorized service center for such work.
