CHAIN LUBRICANT
IMPORTANT
chain saws or adhesive oil for chain saws. Do not
use oil containing impurities so as not to block the
oil filter and to prevent irreparable damage to the
oil pump.
IMPORTANT
ing the chain is biodegradable. Use of a mineral
oil or engine oil causes serious damage to the
environment.
It is essential that you use good quality oil to lubri-
cate the cutting parts effectively. Used or poor
quality oil does not guarantee good lubrication
and reduces the duration of the chain and bar.
It is always worth topping up the oil tank com-
pletely (using a funnel) every time you refuel.
Since the oil tank capacity is enough to guarantee
that the fuel runs out first, you will avoid the risk of
operating the machine without lubricant.
To start the engine (Fig. 8):
1. Check that the chain brake is engaged (with
the front hand guard pushed forward).
2. Set the switch (1) to «START».
3. Pull the knob (2) as far as possible to engage
the starter.
4. Press the primer device button (3) 3 or 4 times
to prime the carburettor.
5. Hold the machine firmly on the ground, with
your hand on the handgrip and your foot in the
rear handgrip, to avoid losing control during
starting (Fig. 9).
WARNING!
firmly, the force of the engine could cause
the user to lose his balance or direct the bar
towards him or an obstacle.
