bar, clean them and spray with
corrosion inhibiting oil.
Thoroughly clean the machine,

completely fill the chain oil tank.
Store the machine in a dry and high
or locked location, out of the reach
of children and other unauthorized
persons.

Lubricate the new spring with a few
drops of non-resinous oil.

frame in position in the fan housing
the anchor loop must engage the
lug.

:
Apply suitable tools (screwdriver,
punch, etc.) to the recesses
(arrows) and push the spring into its
seat – it slips out of the retaining
frame in this process.
Reinstall the rope rotor, tension the
rewind spring, fit the fan housing
and secure in position.

:
Remove the rope rotor.
The bits of spring in the fan housing
might still be under tension and
could fly apart when you take them
out of the housing. To reduce risk of
injury, wear eye and face protection
and work gloves.
Use a screwdriver to carefully pry
the parts of the spring out of the
housing.
