FUEL HANDLING
English – 19
Chain oil
• We recommend the use of special oil (chain oil) with
good adhesion characteristics.
• Never use waste oil. This results in damage to the oil
pump, the bar and the chain.
• It is important to use oil of the right grade (suitable
viscosity range) to suit the air temperature.
• In temperatures below 32°F (0°C) some oils become
too viscous. This can overload the oil pump and result
in damage to the oil pump components.
• Contact your service agent when choosing chain oil.
Extra chain oil
Under EXTREME conditions the chain and bar may
require extra chain oil. The oil flow should only be
increased when the engine is running and the chain
rotating. Push the lever to the right, where it will
automatically be held in the locked position. Press in the
lever button to release it.
Note: It is not necessary to pump continuously. When the
extra oil flow has been activated oil consumption
increases by 40-80%, depending on the oil pump’s basic
setting.
Fueling
Clean the area around the fuel cap. Clean the fuel and
chain oil tanks regularly. The fuel filter must be replaced
at least once a year. Contamination in the tanks causes
malfunction. Make sure the fuel is well mixed by shaking
the container before refuelling. The capacities of the chain
oil tank and fuel tank are carefully matched. You should
therefore always fill the chain oil tank and fuel tank at the
same time.

WARNING! Taking the following
precautions, will lessen the risk of fire:
Do not smoke and do not place any hot
objects in the vicinity of fuel.
Always stop the engine and let it cool for
a few minutes before refuelling.
When refuelling, open the fuel cap slowly
so that any excess pressure is released
gently.
Tighten the fuel cap carefully after
refuelling.
Always move the machine away from the
refuelling area before starting.

WARNING! Fuel and fuel vapor are highly
flammable. Take care when handling fuel
and chain oil. Be aware of the risks of
fire, explosion and those associated with
inhalation.
