Closing the cap
:
Fit the cap - grip upright -marks
must line up.
:
Turn the cap clockwise as far as
stop (approx. a quarter turn).
:
Fold the grip flush with the top of the
cap.
If the grip does not lie completely flush
with the cap and the detent on the grip
does not engage the recess in the filler
neck, the cap is not properly seated and
tightened and you must repeat the
above steps.
Change the fuel pickup body
once every year
:
Drain the fuel tank.
:
Use a hook to pull the fuel pickup
body out of the tank and take it off
the hose.
:
Push the new pickup body into the
hose.
:
Place the pickup body in the tank.
For automatic and reliable
lubrication of the chain and guide
bar –
use only an environmentally
compatible quality chain and bar
lubricant with non-fling additive
or the rapidly biodegradable
STIHL BioPlus is recommended.
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, clutch 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.
