Saw chain oil
Use a special oil with adhesive addition for lubricating the saw
chain and bar. The adhesive addition prevents that the oil is
centrifuged too fast from the sawing device.
Do not use mineral oils. In order to protect the invironment the
use of biologically decomposeable oil is prescribed.
The saw chain oil sold by MAKITA, called BIOTOP, is made
of special vegetable oils and is biologically decomposeable to
100%. BIOTOP has been granted the "blue angel" for being
particularly favourable to the environment (RAL UZ 48).
BIOTOP oil is available in the following packing sizes
to suit your
individual requirements:
1 liter
order number
980 008 610
5 liters
order number
980 008 611
Biologically decomposeable oil is stable only for a
limited period of time. It should be consumed within
2 years from the date of manufacture (printed on the
container).
Waste oil
NEVER USE WASTE OIL
Waste oil is very dangerous for the environment.
Waste oil contains high amounts of carcinogenic substances.
The residues in the waste oil result in a high degree of wear
and tear at the oil pump and the sawing device.
In the case of damage caused by using waste oil or unappropriate
saw chain oil the product guarantee will be null and void.
Your salesman will inform you about the use of saw chain oil.
AVOID SKIN AND EYE CONTACTS
Mineral oil products as well as oil degrease the skin. If your
skin repeatedly comes in contact with these substances for a
longer period of time, it will desiccate. Various skin deseases
may result. In addition, allergic reactions are known.
Eyes can be irritated by contact with oil. If oil gets into your eyes,
immediately wash them with clear water. If your eyes are still
irrritated, go to see a doctor.
Important note on bio-degradable chain oils
If you are not planning to use the saw again for an ex-
tended period of time, empty the oil tank and put in a
small amount of regular
engine oil
(SAE 30), and then
run the saw for a time. This is necessary to flush out all
remaining bio-degradable oil from the oil tank, oil-feed
system, chain and guide bar, as many such oils tend to
leave sticky residues over time, which can cause damage
to the oil pump or other parts.
The next time you use the saw, fill the tank with BIOTOP
chain oil again. In case of damage caused by using waste
oil or unappropriate chain oil the product guarantee will
be null and void.
Your salesman will inform you about the use of chain
oil.
