CLEANING AND STORAGE
WARNING:
Do not let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc., come
in contact with plastic parts. These chemicals may damage, weaken and destroy plastic, which may
result in serious personal injury.
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to stop.
2. Allow the unit to cool.
3. Slacken the chain if it was retensioned at operating temperature
during cutting work. The chain contracts as it cools down. If it is
not slackened, it may damage the gearbox and bearings.
4. Wipe the unit down with a damp cloth. Do not douse the unit with
water. Do not use solvents or strong detergents. If preparing the
unit for long-term storage (three months or more), remove the
chain and guide bar, then clean the unit thoroughly with a damp
cloth. A firm-bristled, non-wire, brush can be used to remove
debris from the bar groove and assembly. When finished,
reassemble the unit. Refer to Removing/Replacing the Guide Bar
and Chain.
5. Debris must be removed from the cylinder fins on a regular basis to reduce the risk of damage to the unit and
personal injury from fire. Use compressed air, at 40 PSI or lower, to blow debris from the cylinder fins (Fig. 54).
Always wear safety goggles/glasses when cleaning the cylinder fins with compressed air. Use a small wire brush to
dislodge stubborn debris. Do not use water or solvents on the cylinder fins. If there is a significant amount of debris
that remains after cleaning, have the cylinder fins cleaned by an authorized service dealer.
6. Spray the guide bar and chain with corrosion inhibiting oil.
STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: It is normal for oil to seep from the unit when it is not in use. Please take this into consideration when storing
the unit.
1. Follow the Cleaning Instructions listed above.
2. Attach the scabbard to the guide bar and chain.
3. Store the unit in a dry, high and/or locked location, out of the reach of children and other unauthorized persons.
Always store the unit and fuel in a cool, well-ventilated space where fuel vapors cannot reach sparks or open
flames from water heaters, electric motors or switches, furnaces, etc. Never store the unit, with fuel in the tank,
inside a building where fumes may reach an open flame or spark.
Long-term Storage Instructions
In addition to the standard storage instructions described above,
perform the following steps when storing the unit for 30 days or more:
1. Drain the fuel tank by running the unit dry. Alternatively, tip the
engine housing/fuel tank over to pour the fuel mixture into a
suitable container and then run the engine until it stops in order to
remove fuel from the carburetor.
2. Allow the engine to cool.
3. Remove the spark plug. Refer to Inspecting/Adjusting/Replacing
the Spark Plug.
4. Pour 1 teaspoon or clean 2-cycle oil into the combustion chamber
(Fig. 55). Pull the starter rope slowly several times to coat the
internal components.
5. Replace the spark plug.
Removing a Unit From Long-term Storage
1. Remove the spark plug.
2. Pull the starter rope briskly to clear excess oil from the combustion chamber.
3. Clean and gap, or replace, the spark plug.
4. Prepare the unit for operation.
