FUEL HANDLING
Fuelling
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.
Fuel safety
Never refuel the machine while the engine is running.
Make sure there is plenty of ventilation when refuelling or
mixing fuel (petrol and 2-stroke oil).
Move the machine at least 3 m from the refuelling point
before starting it.
Never start the machine:
1 If you have spilt fuel or chain oil on the machine. Wipe off
the spillage and allow remaining fuel to evaporate.
2 If you have spilt fuel on yourself or your clothes, change
your clothes. Wash any part of your body that has come in
contact with fuel. Use soap and water.
3 If the machine is leaking fuel. Check regularly for leaks
from the fuel cap and fuel lines.
Transport and storage
Always store the chain saw and fuel so that there is no risk
of leakages or fumes coming into contact with sparks or
naked flames from electrical equipment, electric motors,
relays/switches, boilers and the like.
Always store fuel in an approved container designed for
that purpose.
For longer periods of storage or for transport of the chain
saw, the fuel and chain oil tanks should be emptied. Ask
where you can dispose of waste fuel and chain oil at your
local petrol station.
Ensure the machine is cleaned and that a complete
service is carried out before long-term storage.
The bar guard must always be fitted to the cutting
attachment when the machine is being transported or in
storage, in order to prevent accident contact with the
sharp chain. Even a non-moving chain can cause serious
cuts to yourself or persons you bump into with an exposed
chain.
Long-term storage
Empty the fuel/oil tanks in a well ventilated area. Store the fuel
in approved cans in a safe place. Fit the bar guard. Clean the
machine. See instructions under the heading Maintenance
schedule.
!
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 vapour are highly
flammable. Take care when handling fuel and
chain oil. Be aware of the risks of fire,
explosion and those associated with
inhalation.
!
WARNING! Never use a machine with visible
damage to the spark plug guard and ignition
cable. A risk of sparking arises, which can
cause a fire.
