001BA236 KN English Chain Lubricant Filling Chain Oil Tank Opening 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. N Check oil level before starting work, while sawing, and each time the battery is changed N Refill chain oil at the latest every second time the battery is changed If the oil tank is still partly full, the reason may be a problem in the oil supply system: Check chain lubrication, clean the oil passages, contact your servicing dealer for assistance if necessary. STIHL recommends that all maintenance and repairs be carried out by STIHL servicing dealers Oil filler cap N Thoroughly clean the filler cap and the area around it to ensure that no dirt falls into the tank N Always position the machine so that the filler cap is facing upwards 3999BA012 KN N Raise handle.
