GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Before using a new chain saw
Please read this manual carefully. (1) - (113) refer to gures on p. 2-6. Check that the cutting equipment is correctly tted and adjusted. See instructions under the heading Assembly. Refuel and start the chain saw. See the instructions under the headings Fuel Handling and Starting and Stopping. Do not use the chain saw until sufcient chain oil has reached the chain. See instructions under the heading Cutting equipment. Long-term exposure to noise can result in permanent hearing impairment. So always use approved hearing protection.
WARNING! Never allow children to use or be in the vicinity of the machine. As the machine is equipped with a springloaded stop switch and can be started by low speed and force on the starter handle, even small children under some circumstances can produce the force necessary to start the machine. This can mean a risk of serious personal injury. Therefore remove the spark plug cap when the machine is not under close supervision.

Important

IMPORTANT! The machine is only designed for cutting wood. You should only use the saw with the bar and chain combinations we recommend in the chapter Technical data. Never use the machine if you are fatigued, while under the inuence of alcohol or drugs, medication or anything that could affect your vision, alertness, coordination or judgement. Wear personal protective equipment. See instructions under the heading Personal protective equipment. Do not modify this product or use it if it appears to have been modied by others. Never use a machine that is faulty. Carry out the checks, maintenance and service instructions described in this manual. Some maintenance and service measures must be carried out by trained and qualied specialists. See instructions under the heading Maintenance. Never use any accessories other than those recommended in this manual. See instructions under the headings Cutting equipment and Technical data. NB! Always wear protective glasses or a face visor to reduce the risk of injury from thrown objects. A chain saw is capable of throwing objects, such as wood chips, small pieces of wood, etc, at great force. This can result in serious injury, especially to the eyes. WARNING! Running an engine in a conned or badly ventilated area can result in death due to asphyxiation or carbon monoxide poisoning. WARNING! Faulty cutting equipment or the wrong combination of bar and saw chain increases the risk of kickback! Only use the bar/saw chain combinations we recommend, and follow the ling instructions. See instructions under the heading Technical data.

Chain brake and front hand guard
Your chain saw is equipped with a chain brake that is designed to stop the chain if you get a kickback. The chain brake reduces the risk of accidents, but only you can prevent them. (3) Take care when using your saw and make sure the kickback zone of the bar never touches any object. (4) The chain brake (A) can either be activated manually (by your left hand) or automatically by the inertia release mechanism. (5) The brake is applied when the front hand guard (B) is pushed forwards. (5) This movement activates a spring-loaded mechanism that tightens the brake band (C) around the engine drive system (D) (clutch drum). (6) The front hand guard is not designed solely to activate the chain brake. Another important feature is that it reduces the risk of your left hand hitting the chain if you lose grip of the front handle. The chain brake must be engaged when the chain saw is started to prevent the saw chain from rotating. (52) Use the chain brake as a parking brake when starting and when moving over short distances, to reduce the risk of moving chain accidentally hitting your leg or anyone or anything close by. Do not leave the chain saw switched on with the chain brake activated for long periods. The chain saw can become very hot. The chain brake is released by moving the front hand guard marked PULL BACK TO RESET back, towards the front handle. Kickback can be very sudden and violent. Most kickbacks are minor and do not always activate the chain brake. If this happens you should hold the chain saw rmly and not let go. (56) The way the chain brake is activated, either manually or automatically by the inertia release mechanism, depends on the force of the kickback and the position of the chain saw in relation to the object that the kickback zone of the bar strikes. If you get a violent kickback while the kickback zone of the bar is farthest away from you the chain brake is designed to be activated by the inertia in the kickback direction. (7) 1153135-95 Rev.1 2009-12-29
Personal protective equipment
WARNING! Most chain saw accidents happen when the chain touches the operator. You must use approved personal protective equipment whenever you use the machine. Personal protective equipment cannot eliminate the risk of injury but it will reduce the degree of injury if an accident does happen. Ask your dealer for help in choosing the right equipment.
Approved protective helmet Hearing protection Protective goggles or a visor Gloves with saw protection Trousers with saw protection Boots with saw protection, steel toe-cap and non-slip sole Always have a rst aid kit nearby. Fire Extinguisher and Shovel Generally clothes should be close-tting without restricting your freedom of movement. IMPORTANT! Sparks can come from the mufer, the bar and chain or other sources. Always have re extinguishing tools available if you should need them. Help prevent forest res.

WARNING! A slack chain may jump off the bar and cause serious or even fatal injury.
The more you use a chain the longer it becomes. It is therefore important to adjust the chain regularly to take up the slack. Check the chain tension every time you refuel. NOTE! A new chain has a running-in period during which you should check the tension more frequently. Tension the chain as tightly as possible, but not so tight that you cannot pull it round freely by hand. (26) 435
General advice on adjusting depth gauge setting When you sharpen the cutting tooth (A) the depth gauge setting (C) will decrease. To maintain optimal cutting performance the depth gauge (B) has to be led down to achieve the recommended depth gauge setting. See instructions under the heading Technical data to nd the correct depth gauge setting for your particular chain. (24)
Loosen the bar nut that holds the clutch cover and chain brake. Use the combination spanner. Then retighten the bar nut as tightly as you can by hand. (27) Raise the tip of the bar and stretch the chain by tightening the chain tensioning screw using the combination spanner. Tighten the chain until it does not sag from the underside of the bar. (28) Use the combination spanner to tighten the bar nut while holding up the tip of the bar. Check that you can pull the saw chain round freely by hand, and that there is no slack on the underside of the bar. (29) English 15
WARNING! The risk of kickback is increased if the depth gauge setting is too large!
The position of the chain tensioning screw on our chain saws varies from model to model. See instructions under the heading What is what? to nd out where it is on your model. 435e, 440e Checking chain lubrication Check the chain lubrication each time you refuel. See instructions under the heading Lubricating the bar tip sprocket. Aim the tip of the bar at a light coloured surface about 20 cm (8 inches) away. After 1 minute running at 3/4 throttle you should see a distinct line of oil on the light surface. If the chain lubrication is not working: Check that the oil channel in the bar is not obstructed. Clean if necessary. (35) Check that the groove in the edge of the bar is clean. Clean if necessary. (36) Check that the bar tip sprocket turns freely and that the lubricating hole in the tip sprocket is not blocked. Clean and lubricate if necessary. (37)

Both versions of sprockets have a needle bearing on the drive shaft, which has to be greased regularly (once a week). NB! Use only high quality bearing grease or engine oil. See instructions under the heading Maintenance, Needle bearing lubrication.
Checking wear on cutting equipment
Check the chain daily for: Visible cracks in rivets and links. Whether the chain is stiff. Whether rivets and links are badly worn.
WARNING! Most chain saw accidents happen when the chain touches the operator. Wear personal protective equipment. See instructions under the heading Personal protective equipment. Do not tackle any job that you feel you are not adequately trained for. See instructions under the headings Personal protective equipment, How to avoid kickback, Cutting equipment and General working instructions. Avoid situations where there is a risk of kickback. See instructions under the heading Machines safety equipment. Use the recommended protective equipment and check its condition. See instructions under the heading General working instructions.
Replace the saw chain if it exhibits any of the points above. We recommend you compare the existing chain with a new chain to decide how badly the existing chain is worn. When the length of the cutting teeth has worn down to only 5/32 inch (4 mm) the chain must be replaced. Bar
Check regularly: Whether there are burrs on the edges of the bar. Remove these with a le if necessary. Whether the groove in the bar has become badly worn. Replace the bar if necessary. Whether the tip of the bar is uneven or badly worn. If a hollow forms on the underside of the bar tip this is due to running with a slack chain. To prolong the life of the bar you should turn it over regularly.
Check that all the chain saw safety features are working. See instructions under the headings General working instructions and General safety precautions.

English 17

ASSEMBLY
Fitting the bar and chain
Tension the chain by turning the wheel down (+). The chain should be tensioned until it does not sag from the underside of the bar. (32) The chain is correctly tensioned when it does not sag from the underside of the bar, but can still be turned easily by hand. Hold up the bar tip and tighten the bar knob by turning the knob clockwise. (33) When tting a new chain, the chain tension has to be checked frequently until the chain is run-in. Check the chain tension regularly. A correctly tensioned chain ensures good cutting performance and long life. (44) (47)

WARNING! Always wear gloves, when working with the chain.
Check that the chain brake is in disengaged position by moving the front hand guard towards the front handle. (39) Unscrew the bar nut and remove the clutch cover (chain brake). Take off the transportation ring (A). (40) Fit the bar over the bar bolt. Place the bar in its rearmost position. Place the chain over the drive sprocket and in the groove on the bar.

FUEL HANDLING

Note! The machine is equipped with a two-stroke engine and must always be run using a mixture of gasoline and two-stroke oil. It is important to accurately measure the amount of oil to be mixed to ensure that the correct mixture is obtained. When mixing small amounts of fuel, even small inaccuracies can drastically affect the ratio of the mixture.

WARNING! Never use a machine with visible damage to the spark plug guard and ignition cable. A risk of sparking arises, which can cause a re.

Transport and storage

Always store the chain saw and fuel so that there is no risk of leakages or fumes coming into contact with sparks or naked ames from electrical equipment, electric motors, relays/switches, boilers and the like. Always store fuel in an approved container designed for that purpose. For longer periods of storage or for transport of the chain saw, the fuel and chain oil tanks should be emptied. Ask where you can dispose of waste fuel and chain oil at your local gas station. The bar guard must always be tted to the cutting attachment when the machine is being transported or in storage, in order to prevent accident contact with the sharp chain. Even a non-moving chain can cause serious cuts to yourself or persons you bump into with an exposed chain. Remove the spark plug cap from the spark plug. Activate the chain brake.
Secure the machine during transport.

Long-term storage

Empty the fuel/oil tanks in a well ventilated area. Store the fuel in approved cans in a safe place. Fit the bar guard. Clean the machine. See instructions under the heading Maintenance schedule. Ensure the machine is cleaned and that a complete service is carried out before long-term storage.
WARNING! Fuel and fuel vapor are highly ammable. Take care when handling fuel and chain oil. Be aware of the risks of re, explosion and those associated with inhalation.

Fuel safety

1 Never refuel the machine while the engine is running. Make sure there is plenty of ventilation when refuelling or mixing fuel (gasoline and 2-stroke oil). Move the machine at least 10 ft (3 m) from the refuelling point before starting it. Never start the machine: If you have spilled fuel or chain oil on the machine. Wipe off the spillage and allow remaining fuel to evaporate. If you have spilled fuel on yourself or your clothes, change your clothes. Wash any part of your body that has come in contact with fuel. Use soap and water. If the machine is leaking fuel. Check regularly for leaks from the fuel cap and fuel lines.

20 English

STARTING AND STOPPING

Starting and stopping

WARNING! Note the following before starting: The chain brake must be engaged when the chain saw is started to reduce the chance of contact with the moving chain during starting. Never start a chain saw unless the bar, chain and all covers are tted correctly. Otherwise the clutch can come loose and cause personal injuries. Place the machine on rm ground. Make sure you have a secure footing and that the chain cannot touch anything. Keep people and animals well away from the working area. Never wrap the starter cord around your hand. Pull the starter handle, 5: Grip the front handle with your left hand. Hold the chain saw on the ground by placing your right foot through the rear handle. (51) Pull the starter handle with your right hand and pull out the starter cord slowly until you feel a resistance (as the starter pawls engage) then pull rmly and rapidly until the engine res. As the chain brake is still engaged the speed of the engine must be set to idling as soon as possible, this is achieved by disengaging the throttle lock. Disengagement is done by gently touching on the throttle trigger. This prevents unnecessary wear to the clutch, clutch drum and brake band. Allow the machine to idle a few seconds before giving full throttle. There is a simplied start reminder with illustrations to describe each step on the rear edge of the saw (A). (50) NB! Do not pull the starter cord all the way out and do not let go of the starter handle when the cord is fully extended. This can damage the machine. Note! Pull the front hand guard towards the front handle. The chain brake is now disengaged. Your saw is ready for use.

Starting

The chain brake should be activated when starting the chain saw. Activate the chain brake by pushing the front hand guard forwards. (49) Cold engine Start position, 1: Set the start/stop switch in the choke position by pulling the red control outward - upward. Air purge, 2: Press the air purge diaphragm repeatedly until fuel lls the diaphragm (at least 6 times). The diaphragm need not be completely lled. (50) Grip the front handle with your left hand. Hold the chain saw on the ground by placing your right foot through the rear handle. Pull the starter handle, 3: Pull the starter handle with your right hand and pull out the starter cord slowly until you feel a resistance (as the starter pawls engage) then pull rmly and rapidly until the engine res. Push down the red choke control, 4: As soon as the engine res which can be heard through a "puff" sound, push down on the red choke control. Pull the starter handle, 5: Keep on pulling the cord powerfully until the engine starts. Warm engine Start position, 1: The correct choke/start throttle setting for warm starting is obtained by initially moving the choke control by pulling the red control outward - upwards. Air purge, 2: Press the air purge diaphragm repeatedly until fuel lls the diaphragm (at least 6 times). The diaphragm need not be completely lled. Push down the red choke control, 4: This inactivates the choke, which is not needed when starting a warm chain saw. However the movement of the start/stop switch will have engaged a high idle, making warm starting easier. 1153135-95 Rev.1 2009-12-29
WARNING! Long term inhalation of the engines exhaust fumes, chain oil mist and dust from sawdust can represent a health risk.
Never start a chain saw unless the bar, chain and all covers are tted correctly. See instructions under the heading Assembly. Without a bar and chain attached to the chain saw the clutch can come loose and cause serious injury. The chain brake should be activated when starting. Se instructions under the heading Start and stop. Do not drop start. This method is very dangerous because you may lose control of the saw. (52) Never start the machine indoors. Exhaust fumes can be dangerous if inhaled. Observe your surroundings and make sure that there is no risk of people or animals coming into contact with the cutting equipment. Always hold the saw with both hands. The right hand should be on the rear handle, and the left hand on the front handle. All people, whether right or left handed, should use this grip. Use a rm grip with thumbs and ngers encircling the chain saw handles. The chain brake is released by moving the front hand guard marked PULL BACK TO RESET back, towards the front handle.

If you understand what kickback is and how it happens then you can reduce or eliminate the element of surprise. By being prepared you reduce the risk. Kickback is usually quite mild, but it can sometimes be very sudden and violent. Always hold the chain saw rmly with your right hand on the rear handle and your left hand on the front handle. Wrap your ngers and thumbs around the handles. You should use this grip whether you are right-handed or left-handed. This grip minimizes the effect of kickback and lets you keep the chain saw under control. Do not let go of the handles! (56) Most kickback accidents happen during limbing. Make sure you are standing rmly and that there is nothing in the way that might make you trip or lose your balance. Lack of concentration can lead to kickback if the kickback zone of the bar accidentally touches a branch, nearby tree or some other object. Have control over the workpiece. If the pieces you intend to cut are small and light, they can jam in the saw chain and be thrown towards you. Even if this does not need to be a danger, you may be surprised and lose control of the saw. Never saw stacked logs or branches without rst separating them. Only saw one log or one piece at a time. Remove the cut pieces to keep your working area safe. (57) 1153135-95 Rev.1 2009-12-29

Basic safety rules

1 Look around you: To ensure that people, animals or other things cannot affect your control of the machine. To make sure that none of the above might come within reach of your saw or be injured by falling trees.
NB! Follow the instructions above, but do not use a chain saw in a situation where you cannot call for help in case of an accident. 2 Do not use the machine in bad weather, such as dense fog, heavy rain, strong wind, intense cold, etc. Working in bad weather is tiring and often brings added risks, such as icy ground, unpredictable felling direction, etc. 3 Take great care when removing small branches and avoid cutting bushes (i.e. cutting many small branches at the same time). Small branches can be grabbed by the chain and thrown back at you, causing serious injury. 22 English
4 Never use the chain saw above shoulder height and avoid cutting with the tip of the bar. Never use the chain saw one-handed! (58) In order to keep control of your saw, always maintain a rm foothold. Never work on a ladder, in a tree or on any other insecure support. (59) Always use a fast cutting speed, i.e. full throttle. Take great care when you cut with the top edge of the bar, i.e. when cutting from the underside of the object. This is known as cutting with a pushing chain. The chain tries to push the chain saw back towards the user. If the saw chain is jamming, the saw may be pushed back at you. (60) Unless the user resists this pushing force there is a risk that the chain saw will move so far backwards that only the kickback zone of the bar is in contact with the tree, which can lead to a kickback. (61) Cutting with the bottom edge of the bar, i.e. from the top of the object downwards, is known as cutting with a pulling chain. In this case the chain saw pulls itself towards the tree and the front edge of the chain saw body rests naturally on the trunk when cutting. Cutting with a pulling chain gives the operator better control over the chain saw and the position of the kickback zone. (62) Follow the instructions on sharpening and maintaining your bar and chain. When you replace the bar and chain use only combinations that are recommended by us. See instructions under the headings Cutting equipment and Technical data. Make sure the object you are cutting will not split. (64) Make sure the chain will not strike the ground or any other object during or after cutting. (65) Is there a risk of kickback? (4) Do the conditions and surrounding terrain affect how safely you can stand and move about?

Two factors decide whether the chain will jam or the object that you are cutting will split: the rst is how the object is supported before and after cutting, and the second is whether it is in tension. In most cases you can avoid these problems by cutting in two stages; from the top and from the bottom. You need to support the object so that it will not trap the chain or split during cutting. IMPORTANT! If the chain jams in the cut: stop the engine! Dont try to pull the chain saw free. If you do you may be injured by the chain when the chain saw suddenly breaks free. Use a lever to open up the cut and free the chain saw. The following instructions describe how to handle the common situations you are likely to encounter when using a chain saw. Limbing When limbing thick branches you should use the same approach as for cutting. Cut difcult branches piece by piece. (66) Cutting

Basic cutting technique

WARNING! Never use a chain saw by holding it with one hand. A chain saw is not safely controlled with one hand. Always have a secure, rm grip around the handles with both hands.
WARNING! Never attempt to cut logs while they are in a pile or when a couple of logs are lying together. Such procedures drastically increase the risk of kickback which can result in a serious or fatal injury.
General Always use full throttle when cutting! Reduce the speed to idle after every cut (running the engine for too long at full throttle without any load, i.e. without any resistance from the chain during cutting, can lead to serious engine damage). Cutting from above = Cutting with a pulling chain. Cutting from below = Cutting with pushing chain. Cutting with a pushing chain increases the risk of kickback. See instructions under the heading How to avoid kickback. Terms Cutting = General term for cutting through wood. Limbing = Cutting branches off a felled tree. Splitting = When the object you are cutting breaks off before the cut is complete. There are ve important factors you should consider before making a cut: 1 Make sure the cutting equipment will not jam in the cut. (63) 1153135-95 Rev.1 2009-12-29
If you have a pile of logs, each log you attempt to cut should be removed from the pile, placed on a saw horse or runners and cut individually. Remove the cut pieces from the cutting area. By leaving them in the cutting area, you increase the risk for inadvertently getting a kickback, as well as increasing the risk of losing your balance while working. (67) The log is lying on the ground. There is little risk of the chain jamming or the object splitting. However there is a risk that the chain will touch the ground when you nish the cut. (68) Cut all the way through the log from above. Avoid letting the chain touch the ground as you nish the cut. Maintain full throttle but be prepared for what might happen. (69) If it is possible (can you turn the log?) stop cutting about 2/3 of the way through the log. Turn the log and nish the cut from the opposite side. (70) The log is supported at one end. There is a high risk that it will split. (71) Start by cutting from below (about 1/3 of the way through). Finish by cutting from above so that the two cuts meet. (72) English 23

The log is supported at both ends. There is a high risk that the chain will jam. (73) Start by cutting from above (about 1/3 of the way through). Finish by cutting from below so that the two cuts meet. (74) Clearing the trunk and preparing your retreat Delimb the stem up to shoulder height. It is safer to work from the top down and to have the tree between you and the saw. (77) Remove any undergrowth from the base of the tree and check the area for obstacles (stones, branches, holes, etc.) so that you have a clear path of retreat when the tree starts to fall. Your path of retreat should be roughly 135 degrees away from the intended felling direction. (78) 1 Danger zone 2 Retreat path 3 Felling direction Felling

Tree felling technique

IMPORTANT! It takes a lot of experience to fell a tree. Inexperienced users of chain saws should not fell trees. Do not attempt any task beyond your experience level! Safe distance The safe distance between a tree that is to be felled and anyone else working nearby is at least 2 1/2 tree lengths. Make sure that no-one else is in this risk zone before or during felling. (75) Felling direction The aim is to fell the tree in a position where you can limb and cross-cut the log as easily as possible. You want it to fall in a location where you can stand and move about safely. Once you have decided which way you want the tree to fall you must judge which way the tree would fall naturally. Several factors affect this: Lean of the tree Bend Wind direction Arrangement of branches Weight of snow Obstacles within the reach of the tree: for example, other trees, power lines, roads and buildings. Look for signs of damage and rot in the stem, this makes it more probably that the tree will break and start to fall before you expect it to. You may nd you are forced to let the tree fall in its natural direction because it is impossible or dangerous to try to make it fall in the direction you rst intended. Another very important factor, which does not affect the felling direction but does affect your safety, is to make sure the tree has no damaged or dead branches that might break off and hit you during felling. The main point to avoid is letting the tree fall onto another tree. It is very dangerous to remove a trapped tree and there is high accident risk. See instructions under the heading Freeing a tree that has fallen badly. (76) IMPORTANT! During critical felling operations, hearing protectors should be lifted immediately when sawing is completed so that sounds and warning signals can be heard.
WARNING! Unless you have special training we advise you not to fell trees with a diameter larger than the bar length of your saw!
Felling is done using three cuts. First you make the directional cuts, which consist of the top cut and the bottom cut, then you nish with the felling cut. By placing these cuts correctly you can control the felling direction very accurately. Directional cuts To make the directional cut you begin with the top cut. Aim using to the saws felling direction mark (1) toward a goal further forward in the terrain, where you would like the tree to fall (2). Stand on the right-hand side of the tree, behind the saw, and cut with a pull stroke. Next make the bottom cut so that it nishes exactly at the end of the top cut. (79) The directional cuts should run 1/4 of the diameter through the trunk and the angle between the top cut and bottom cut should be 45. The line where the two cuts meet is called the directional cut line. This line should be perfectly horizontal and at right angles (90) to the chosen felling direction. (80) Felling cut The felling cut is made from the opposite side of the tree and it must be perfectly horizontal. Stand on the left side of the tree and cut on the pull stroke. Make the felling cut about 1.5-2 inches (3-5 cm) above the bottom directional cut. (81) Finish the felling cut parallel with the directional cut line so that the distance between them is at least 1/10 of the trunk diameter. The uncut section of the trunk is called the felling hinge. The felling hinge controls the direction that the tree falls in. (82) All control over the felling direction is lost if the felling hinge is too narrow or non-existent, or if the directional cuts and felling cut are badly placed. (83) When the felling cut and directional cut are complete the tree should start to fall by itself or with the aid of a felling wedge or breaking bar. (84)

Cooling system Winter use
Running problems can occur when using the machine in the cold and snowy conditions caused by: To keep the working temperature as low as possible the machine is equipped with a cooling system. The cooling system consists of: 5 Air intake on the starter. Air guide plate. Fins on the ywheel. Cooling ns on the cylinder. Cylinder cover (directs cold air over the cylinder). (111) For running the machine in cold weather or powder snow, a special cover is available, which is mounted on the starter housing. This reduces the intake of cold air and prevents large amounts of snow from being sucked in. (113) NB! If the special winterising kit has been tted or any measures have been taken to increase the temperature these changes must be reversed before the machine is used in normal temperature conditions. Otherwise there is a risk of overheating, resulting in severe damage to the engine. IMPORTANT! Any maintenance other than that described in this manual must be carried out by your servicing dealer (retailer). Too low engine temperature. Icing of the air lter and carburetor. Partly mask the air inlet on the starter to increase the working temperature of the engine.
Special measures are therefore often required:
Temperature -5C (23F) or colder:
Clean the cooling system with a brush once a week, more often in demanding conditions. A dirty or blocked cooling system results in the machine overheating which causes damage to the piston and cylinder.
Air Injection centrifugal cleaning
Centrifugal cleaning means the following: All air to the carburetor passes through the starter. Dirt and dust is pushed out by the cooling fan. (112) IMPORTANT! In order to maintain operation of the centrifugal cleaning system it must be regularly maintained. Clean the air intake to the starter, the ns on the ywheel, the space around the ywheel, inlet pipe and carburetor compartment.

English 29

Maintenance schedule
The following is a list of the maintenance that must be performed on the machine. Most of the items are described in the Maintenance section. Daily maintenance Weekly maintenance On chain saws without a catalytic converter, check the cooling system weekly. Check the starter, starter cord and return spring. Monthly maintenance Check the brake band on the chain brake for wear. Replace when less than 0.024 inch (0.6 mm) remains at the most worn point. Check the clutch centre, clutch drum and clutch spring for wear.
Clean the outside of the machine.
Check that the components of the throttle control work safely. (Throttle lockout and throttle control.) Clean the chain brake and check that it operates safely. Make sure that the chain catcher is undamaged, and replace it if necessary. The bar should be turned regularly for more even wear. Check the lubrication hole in the bar, to be sure it is not clogged. Clean the bar groove. If the bar has a sprocket tip, this should be lubricated. Check that the bar and chain are getting sufcient oil. Check the saw chain with regard to visible cracks in the rivets and links, whether the saw chain is stiff or whether the rivets and links are abnormally worn. Replace if necessary. Sharpen the chain and check its tension and condition. Check the drive sprocket for excessive wear and replace if necessary. Clean the starter units air intake. Check that nuts and screws are tight. Check that the stop switch works correctly. Check that there are no fuel leaks from the engine, tank or fuel lines. On chain saws with a catalytic converter, check the cooling system daily.
