FUEL HANDLING

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.
Removing fuel cap and chain oil cap
Press down on the textured area of the flip lever and
lift to an upright position.
Loosen the cap by turning it counterclockwise.
Remove the cap.
Replacing fuel cap and chain oil cap
Insert the cap with the flip lever in an upright position.
Tighten the cap securely by turning it clockwise.
Fold the flip lever down.

so that any excess pressure is released
gently.

refueling.

refueling area and source before
