20.1 Preparing for Transportation or Storage

WARNING
To reduce the risk of personal injury from unintended
activation or unauthorized use, switch off the chain saw,
engage the chain brake and remove the battery before
transporting the chain saw or putting it down. To reduce the
risk of injuries from the sharp cutters on the saw chain,
always cover the guide bar with the chain scabbard before
transporting or storing the saw.
To prepare the chain saw for transportation or storage:
► Switch off the chain saw, @ 18.2.
► Engage the chain brake, @ 16.1.
► Remove the battery, @ 17.2.
► Release the chain brake and loosen the chain.
► Re-engage the chain brake.
► Slide a chain scabbard over the guide bar so that it covers
the entire guide bar.
► If the battery or chain saw became wet during operation,
allow them to dry separately and completely before
charging or storing.
► Re-tension the saw chain before using the chain saw.
NOTICE
Failing to loosen the saw chain after finishing work can
damage the drive shaft and bearings as the saw chain
contracts as it cools down.

21 Transporting the Chain Saw and

Battery

21.1 Chain Saw

When transporting the chain saw:
► Slide a chain scabbard over the guide bar so that it covers
the entire guide bar.
► When transporting the saw by hand, hold it by the front
handle with the guide bar pointing backwards, opposite
the direction in which you are walking.
► When transporting the saw in a vehicle, cover the guide
bar with a chain scabbard. Secure and position the chain
saw to prevent turnover, impact and damage.
Your saw comes standard with a chain scabbard that
matches the cutting attachment. If you use guide bars of
different lengths on the saw, the length of the chain
scabbard must be matched to the guide bar to reduce the
risk of injury. It should cover the full length of the guide bar.
21.2 Battery
WARNING
To reduce the risk of a short circuit, which could lead to
electric shock, fire and explosion, never transport the battery
in a metal container or near metal objects (e.g., paper clips,
nails, coins, keys), @ 9.
