DRIVE CHAIN CLEANING AND OILING
This drive chain has special “X-O rings”.
Clean and oil the chain periodically, as fol-
lows :

Kerosene can be hazardous. Kerosene
is flammable. Children or pets may be
harmed from contact with kerosene.
Keep flames and smoking materials
away from kerosene. Keep children and
pets away from kerosene.
If swallowed, do induce vomiting. Call a
physician immediately.
Dispose of used kerosene properly.
WARNING
Be careful not to touch the muffler when
it is hot : a hot muffler can burn you.
WARNING
Cleaning the chain with gasoline or
commercial cleaning solvents can dam-
age “ X-O rings” and ruin the chain.
