Chain Lubricant
Biological chain oil must be
resistant to aging (e.g. STIHL
Bioplus)
since it will otherwise
quickly turn to resin. This results
in hard deposits that are difficult to
remove, especially in the area of
the chain drive and chain. It may
even cause the oil pump to seize.
Do not use waste oil.
Renewed
contact with waste oil can cause
skin cancer. Moreover, waste oil is
environmentally harmful.
Waste oil does not have the
necessary lubricating properties
and is unsuitable for chain
lubrication.
