5.1 Fuel and Chain Oil Preparation

This chainsaw requires a mixture of gasoline and 2-stroke engine oil. Always use fresh, high-quality unleaded gasoline and a premium 2-stroke engine oil specifically designed for air-cooled engines. Refer to the engine oil manufacturer's instructions for the correct mixing ratio (typically 50:1 or 25:1).

  • Fuel Mixture: Mix gasoline and 2-stroke oil in a separate, approved fuel container. Shake well before filling the chainsaw's fuel tank.
  • Ketting oalje: Fill the chain oil tank with high-quality bar and chain oil. Do not use waste oil or motor oil, as this can damage the pump and chain.

5.2 Ynstallearjen fan swurd en ketting

  1. Soargje derfoar dat de kettingrem loskeppele is.
  2. Ferwiderje de kettingdeksel troch de twa moeren los te meitsjen.
  3. Fit the chain onto the sprocket and around the guide bar, ensuring the cutting edges face the correct direction.
  4. Mount the guide bar onto the studs, aligning the chain tensioner pin with the hole in the guide bar.
  5. Ferfange de kettingdeksel en draai de moeren mei de hân oan.
  6. Adjust the chain tension using the tensioning screw. The chain should be snug against the bar but still able to be pulled freely by hand. Lift the tip of the guide bar slightly while tightening the nuts to ensure proper tension.
