MAINTENANCE
Muffler
Chain catcher
Check that the chain catcher is not damaged and is firmly
attached to the body of the chain saw.
Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler.
Right hand guard
Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to
the machine.
Check that the right hand guard is not damaged and that
there are no visible defects, such as cracks.
Vibration damping system
Some mufflers are equipped with a special spark arrestor
mesh.If your machine has this type of muffler, you should
clean the mesh at least once a week. This is best done
with a wire brush. A blocked mesh will cause the engine
to overheat and may lead to serious damage.
Regularly check the vibration damping units for cracks or
deformation.
Make sure the vibration damping units are securely
attached to the engine unit and handle unit.
Note! The mesh must be replaced if it is damaged. If the
mesh is blocked the machine will overheat and this will
cause damage to the cylinder and piston. Never use a
machine with a muffler that is in poor condition. Never
use a muffler if the spark arrestor mesh is missing or
defective.
Stop switch
Start the engine and make sure the engine stops when
you move the stop switch to the stop setting.
The muffler is designed to reduce the noise level and to
direct the exhaust gases away from the operator. The
exhaust gases are hot and can contain sparks, which may
cause fire if directed against dry and combustible
material.
A muffler equipped with a catalytic converter significantly
reduces the amount of hydrocarbons (HC), nitrogen
oxides (NO) and aldehydes in the exhaust fumes.Carbon
monoxide (CO), which is poisonous and odourless, is not
however reduced! Consequently, never work in an
