Filling
Chain lubrication
WARNING!
The product is not filled with chain oil. It is
essential to fill the product with chain oil before using it!
Never operate the product without chain oil as this will
result in extensive damage to the product!!
Operating the saw chain dry or with too little chain oil will
decrease cutting efficiency, shorten the product life span
and cause rapid wear to the saw chain and guide bar from
overheating!
Insufficient chain oil is evident by smoke or bar
discoloration! Adequate lubrication of the saw chain during
cutting operations is essential to minimise friction with the
guide bar!
Set the product on any suitable surface with the chain oil tank
>
cap (28) facing upwards.
Unscrew and remove the tank cap (28), then add the lubricant
>
into the tank. Use motor oil SAE#10W-30 all year round or
SAE#30-#40 in summer and SAE#20 in winter.
Use a proper funnel with a filter
>
to prevent debris entering the
tank and to avoid spilling and
overfilling the tank. Do not overfill
and leave approximately 5 mm of
space to the lower edge to allow
the lubricant to expand (Fig. 16).
