MAINTENANCE
Throttle lock
Make sure the throttle control is locked at the idle setting 
when the throttle lock is released.
Press the throttle lock and make sure it returns to its 
original position when you release it.
Check that the throttle control and throttle lock move freely 
and that the return springs work properly.
Start the chain saw and apply full throttle. Release the 
throttle control and check that the chain stops and 
remains stationary. If the chain rotates when the throttle 
control is in the idle position you should check the 
carburetor idle adjustment.
Chain catcher
Check that the chain catcher is not damaged and is firmly 
attached to the body of the chain saw.
Vibration damping system
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.
Stop switch
Start the engine and make sure the engine stops when you 
move the stop switch to the stop setting.
