GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
The warranty on this unit does not cov-
er items that have been subjected to
operator abuse or negligence. To re-
ceive full value from the warranty, the
operator must maintain unit as
instructed in this manual. Various ad-
justments will need to be made period-
ically to properly maintain your unit.
• Once a year, replace the spark plug,
air filter, and check guide bar and
chain for wear. A new spark plug and
air filter assures proper air-fuel mixture
and helps your engine run better and
last longer.
CHECK FOR DAMAGED OR
WORN PARTS
Contact your Sears Service Center for
replacement of damaged or worn parts.
NOTE: It is normal for a small amount of
oil to appear under the saw after engine
stops. Do not confuse this with a leaking
oil tank.
• ON/STOP Switch - Ensure ON/STOP
switch functions properly by moving
the switch to the STOP position. Make
sure engine stops; then restart engine
and continue=
• Fuel Tank - Do not use saw if fuel
tank shows signs of damage or leaks=
• Oil Tank - Do not use saw if oil tank
shows signs of damage or leaks.
CHECK FOR LOOSE
FASTENERS AND PARTS
• Bar Nuts
• Chain
• Muffler
• Cylinder Shield
• Air Filter
• Handle Screws
• Vibration Mounts
• Starter Housing
• Front Hand Guard
CHECK CHAIN TENSION
_lk WARNING: Wear protective
gloves when handling chain. The chain
is sharp and can cut you even when it is
not moving.
Chain tension is very important. Chains
stretch during use. This is especially true
during the first few times you use your
saw. Always check chain tension each
time you use and refuel your saw.
1. Use the screwdriver end of the
chain adjustment tool (bar tool) to
move chain around guide bar to
ensure kinks do not exist. The
chain should rotate freely.
