Cleaning the brake band and sprocket interior

‑ Remove the sprocket guard (A/1) (See "PUTTING INTO

OPERATION" gs. A and B).

‑ Turn the chain tightener screw (

A/2) to the left (counter‑

clockwise) until you feel resistance.

‑ Remove the chain (

A/3) and guide bar (A/4).

‑ Clean the interior with a brush, in particular the brake‑band

area (A/5).

NOTE:

Make sure that no residue or contaminants remain in the oil

guide groove (A/6) and the chain tightener (A/7).

‑ For replacing the guide bar, chain, and sprocket see

"PUTTING INTO OPERATION".

Replacing the suction head

The felt lter (D/1) of the suction head can become clogged.

It is recommended to replace the suction head once every

three months in order to ensure unimpeded fuel ow to the

carburetor.

To remove the suction head for replacement, pull it out

through the tank ller neck using a piece of wire bent at one

end to form a hook.

Check the sprocket (B/1) before mounting a new chain.

The sprocket is located underneath the clutch drum (B/2).

CAUTION:

Worn out sprockets (C) may damage the new chain and must

therefore be replaced.

Do not attempt to replace the sprocket yourself. Sprocket re‑

placement requires special training and tools and must be done

at a MAKITA service centre.

NOTE:

The chain brake is a very important safety device and like

anyothercomponentsubjecttonormalwearandtear.

Regular inspection and maintenance are important for

your own safety and must be done by a MAKITA service

centre.

Replacing the saw chain

Use only chains and guide bars designed for this saw (see

the Extract from the spare‑parts list)!
