4. IMPORTANT POINTS
ao Eliminate all sources of sparks or flame in
the areas where fuel is mixed, poured, or
stored. There should be no smoking, open
flames or work that could cause sparks.
b. Mix, pour and store fuel in an approved,
marked, container and in a well-ventilated
area. Gasoline vapors are harmful to your
health and are a serious fire hazard. Use a fun-
nel or spout when pouring fuel.
c. Avoid overfilling the fuel tank. Allow3/4 inch
for ex pansion. Tighten Fuel Cap securely. Fig-
ure 11.
d. Wipe up all fuel spills. Wipe off any fuel spil-
led on the saw. Completely dry the saw before
using.
e. Move at least 10 feet (3 meters) away from
fueland fueling site before starUng the en-
gine.
G. BAR AND CHAIN OIL
1. USE THE FOLLOWING:
30°F or above Lubricant -- undiluted.
30°F - 0° F --
• The guide bar and cutting chain require con.
tinuous lubrication in order to remain in
operating condition. Lubrication is provided
by the automatic oiler system when the oil
tank is kept filled,
--Lack of oil will quickly ruin the bar and
chain.
--Too little oil will cause overheating shown
by smoke coming from the chain and/or
discoloration of the guide bar rails.
• Use Sears Bar and Chain Lubricant #71-36554
or clean SAE 30W oil.
In freezing weather oil will thicken, making it
necessary to thin bar and chain oil with a
small amount of Diesel Fuel #1 or Kerosene.
Bar and chain oil must be free flowing for the
oil system to pump enough oil .for adequate
lubrication.

3. IMPORTANT POINTS TO REMEMBER
b.
C.
a. Fill the oil tank each time you refill the fuel
tank to ensure there wilt be sufficient oi! for
the chain whenever you start and run the
saw.
The saw will use about 112 tank of chain oil
for each tank of fuel mixture. If tess oil is
used, check for a plugged oil hole in the
guide bar. ; •
It is normal for a small amount of oil to ap-
pear under the saw after the engine stops.
This is due to oil draining from the bar and
chain when not in use.

a. Stop the engine.
b. Turn saw on its side with oil cap up. Figure

c. Loosen cap slowly and wait for pressure in
the tank to be released before removing the
cap.
