chain manufacturer’s recommendation.
CHECK THE CHAIN TENSION FREQUENTLY FOR OPTIMAL
PERFORMANCE AND DURABIITY.
Assembling guide bar and chain
A. Undo the guide bar nuts and remove the clutch cover and
transport packing piece,
B. Place the guide bar into its rearmost position. Make sure that
the chain tensioning stud is properly in the hole in the guide
bar
weather conditions it is therefore ne-
cessary to use a “wintergrade” oil which
stays fluent even when cold.
Concerning the choice of oil and its suit-
ability at different air temperatures,
please refer to your Husqvarna dealer.
Always use quality chain oil. If not available use gear box oil type
EP 90.

Fuel and oil
The power plant of this chain saw is a
twostroke engine, that is run on a petrol-
and oil mixture of certain proportions
ace. to the table.
Do not use but a twostroke oil of high
quality, e.g. Husqvarna Twostroke Oil, that
is specially developed for chain saws.
NOTE!
No extra oil is needed inthe petro/ during
the running-in period of the chain saw.
For lubricating the chain and guide bar
we recommend a chain lubricating oil
with good adhesive properties.
During the wintertime at air temperatures
below O°C (32”F) some types pf chain
lubricating oils are viscous. This can
cause overloading of the oil pump,
which can result in damage of the pump
drive and DumD Darts. Under cold
ALWAYS TOP UP WITH FUEL AND CHAIN LUBRICANT AT
THE SAME TIME.
NOTE\
On no account waste oil should be used as this can damage the
oi/ pump.
Oil mixture:
Husqvarna Twostroke Oil 1:50 (270).
