FUEL MIXTURE: 1 Litre (1000 ml) petrol: 25cc (25 ml) 2 Stroke engine oil (40:1 ratio)
Using a funnel and keeping the bottle level, pour the fuel in the left hand side (‘A’) up to the required
level eg 2.5 or 5 then fill the right hand side (‘B’) up to the same corresponding mark with oil. Shake
vigorously to mix the two products prior to pouring into the tank (C).
NOTE!
Use 5 for 500ml fuel mixture and 2.5 for 250ml fuel mixture.
FILLING THE LUBRICATION
Whenever you refill the fuel tank with petrol you must also top up the level of chain oil in the chain
oil reservoir (D).
Use special chainsaw oil to lubricate the saw chain.
NOTE!
Most stores will sell acceptable oil under the name “Chainsaw chain oil”.
FILLING FULE TANK
Clean surface around the fuel cap to prevent contamination. Loosen fuel cap slowly. Rest the cap
on a clean surface. Carefully pour fuel into the tank. Avoid spillage. Prior to replacing the fuel cap,
clean and inspect the seal located inside the fuel cap . Immediately replace fuel cap and hand
tighten. Wipe up any fuel spillage.
NOTE!
It is normal for smoke to be emitted from a new engine after first use.
Important!
The fuel mix is added into fuel tank(C), chain lubrication oil is filled into oil reservoir(D).
Seal one cap prior to removing the second cap. If you put the fluid into the wrong tank call the
customer helpline immediately at 01904 727500.
Preparing to Operate the Chainsaw
Step 3 - Filling with Engine Fuel and lubrication
This product is powered by a 2-Stroke engine and requires pre-mixing of petrol and 2-stroke oil.
Use a high quality 2-Stroke engine oil according JASO FC classic. Do not use automotive oil or
2-stroke outboard oil. DO NOT mix quantities larger than usable in a 30 day period.
Preparing to Operate the Chainsaw
Step 2 - Adjust the chain tension
1a Pull the chain cover lever out, and slightly loosen the chain cover.
1b Take off the blade protector. While holding up the tip of the bar, adjust the chain tension by
turning the tensioner screw until the chain engages in the bar channel.
1c While lifting tip of guide bar, tighten bar knob securely (clockwise).
Hand tighten only!
NOTE!
when tensioned correctly it should be possible to pull one full chain link free of the bar
channel with ease.
- A new chain will expand its length during the first period of use. Check and re-adjust the tension
frequently as a loose chain can easily derail or cause rapid wear of itself and the chain bar.
CAUTION!
If the saw chain is TOO LOOSE or TOO TIGHT the V-drive wheel, chain bar, chain
and crank shaft bearing will suffer premature wear. Above fig. shows the correct tension A (when
cold) and tension B (when warm). FIG C shows a chain that is too loose.
2 Tighten the chain cover.
