Preparation and Use
Filling Chain Saw Oil
Do not operate the gasoline chain saw without sufficient chain
lubrication. Insufficient lubrication will shorten the service life of the saw
chain and the guide bar. Only use biodegradable chain oil.
Pour in special chain oil of high quality into the oil tank (12). Do not use
waste or regenerated oil. This will cause damage to the built-in oil
pump. Only hand tight the oil tank cap.
Filling Fuel
The engine may only be operated with a mixture of gasoline (unleaded
gasoline with minimum 89 Octane) and high quality chain oil for air-
cooled two-stroke engines. Only use chain oil without anti oxidant
additive that is especially formulated for air-cooled two-stroke engines.
Recommended Mixing Ratio: Gasoline 25 : Oil 1.
HINT: Failure in mixing the correct fuel will cause severe damage to the
engine inner parts. Never use oil for 4-cylinder engines. Do not mix the
gasoline and the oil directly in the fuel tank.
1. Open the cap of the fuel tank (9) and wait some seconds for the
tank pressure to be equalized. Remove the fuel tank cap.
2. Pour in the mixture into the tank and tighten the cap only hand
tight. Make sure not to spill fuel and not to overfill the tank.
Starting the Engine
1. Push the front hand guard (1)
forwards in order to activate the
kickback brake.
2. Lift the start/stop switch (8) up to
the position
I
.
3. Place the gasoline chain saw on
the bottom and hold it firmly with
your foot.
4.
First start the chain saw without pulling the choke (4). After
approx. 10 unsuccessful start attempts, start the chain saw by
pulling the choke all the way out.
