CHAIN LUBRICANT
Proper lubrication of the chain while in operation reduces friction
between the chain and the guide bar to a minimum and assures a lon-
ger service life.
Use bar and chain oil of high quality for this purpose.
■
Do not use used or reclaimed oil to avoid various oiler problems.
■
Use Shindaiwa bar and chain oil.
■
When Shindaiwa bar and chain oil is not available, use motor oil,
■
etc.
Use bar and chain oil of the following grades:
■
SAE NO. 30 ... in summer
SAE NO. 10 ... in winter or when cutting resinous trees.
When refueling, also refill chain oil.

IMPORTANT
Spilled fuel is a leading cause of hydrocarbon emissions. Some
states may require the use of automatic fuel shut-off containers to
reduce fuel spillage.
IMPORTANT
Stored fuel ages. Do not mix more fuel than you expect to use in
thirty (30) days, ninety (90) days when a fuel stabilizer is added.
IMPORTANT
Stored two-stroke fuel may separate. ALWAYS shake fuel container
thoroughly before each use.
After use
DO NOT store a unit with fuel in its tank. Leaks can occur. Return
unused fuel to an approved fuel storage container.
Storage
: Fuel storage laws vary by locality. Contact your local gov-
ernment for the laws affecting your area. As a precaution, store fuel in
an approved, airtight container. Store in a well-ventilated, unoccupied
building, away from sparks and flames.
