Maintenance Tips

• Clean after every use: Remove sap, sawdust, and debris from bar, chain, shaft, and engine housing using a brush or soft cloth.
• Chain care: Keep chain sharp and properly tensioned; check before each use for safe, efficient cutting and reduced kickback risk.
• Guide bar maintenance: Clean oil groove and sprocket tip regularly; flip bar periodically for even wear and smoother operation.
• Chain lubrication: Always check bar oil level and confirm automatic oiler function to prevent overheating and premature wear.
• Air filter service: Clean or replace regularly to maintain engine power, especially during heavy professional canopy work.
• Fuel care: Use fresh fuel mix; avoid stale fuel and drain tank for long-term storage to prevent carburetor issues.
• Spark plug check: Inspect for carbon buildup and replace if starting becomes difficult or performance drops.
• Shaft system inspection: Ensure pole sections lock securely and drive shaft operates smoothly without vibration or play.
• Fastener check: Tighten bar nuts, shaft couplings, and housing screws due to vibration from extended professional use.
• Storage: Fit chain cover, store in a dry place, and lightly oil bar and chain to prevent corrosion.
