English Chain Lubricant Filling Chain Oil Tank 001BA239 KN 467BA004 KN N With the filler cap in the filling neck, twist it counterclockwise until it drops into its seat. N Continue to twist the filler cap counterclockwise (approx. 1/4 turn) - this will twist the base of the cap into the correct position. N While pushing down on the cap, twist the filler cap clockwise and close it - see section "Closing." For automatic and reliable lubrication of the chain and guide bar - use only an environmentally compatible quality chain and bar lubricant. Rapidly biodegradable STIHL BioPlus is recommended. NOTICE 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. The service life of the chain and guide bar depends on the quality of the lubricant. It is therefore essential to use only a specially formulated chain lubricant. WARNING Do not use waste oil. Renewed contact with waste oil can cause skin cancer. Moreover, waste oil is environmentally harmful. NOTICE Waste oil does not have the necessary lubricating properties and is unsuitable for chain lubrication. Preparations N Thoroughly clean the oil filler cap and the area around it to ensure that no dirt falls into the tank. N Position the machine so that the tank cap faces up. N Open the tank cap. Filling the chain oil tank N Refill the chain oil tank every time you refuel. Take care not to spill chain oil while refilling and do not overfill the tank. N Close the tank cap. NOTICE There must still be a small amount of oil in the oil tank when the fuel tank is empty. MS 193 C 31
