Fuels / Refuelling
STOP
FOLLOW SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS!
Fuels are dangerous and must be handled carefully.
Always turn off the engine before refueling!
Fuel and oil
This saw uses a high-performance two-stroke engine that
requires a fuel and oil mix. You can mix it yourself or
purchase special pre-mixed two-stroke engine fuels.
Important: You can use unleaded regular or premium fuel
(minimum 92 octane).
Mixing ratio: We recommend a 50:1 (2% oil) fuel to oil ratio
when using our special CASTOL SUPER TT two-stroke oil. If
using another brand, use a 25:1 (4% oil) fuel to oil ratio (see
table A).
Note: Do not store the mixture longer than 3-4 weeks.

A
Commissioning: For the first five tankfuls, avoid high
engine speeds when not under load (racing) and use a 25:1
(4%) fuel to oil mix, even with our special two-stroke oil!
NOTE:
For preparing the fuel-oil mixture first mix the entire oil quantity
with half of the fuel required, then add the remaining fuel.
Shake the mixture thoroughly before pouring it into the tank.
It is not wise to add more engine oil than specified to ensure
safe operation. This will only result in a higher production of
combustion residues which will pollute the environment and
clog the exhaust channel in the cylinder as well as the muffler.
In addition, fuel consumption will rise and performance will
decrease.
Storage:
Fuel cannot be stored for an unlimited period of time. Buy only
as much as will be consumed in 3-4 weeks.
Use only approved and marked containers for transport and
storage.

Chain oil
Use an oil with adhesive additive for lubricating the chain and
guide bar. The adhesive additive prevents the oil from being
flung off the chain too quickly.
Note: When refueling, always top up the bio-degradable
chain oil supply at the same time.
We recommend the use of chain oil which is bio-degradable in
order to protect the environment. The use of bio-degradable oil
may even be required by local regulations.
The chain oil BIO sold by SOLO is made of special vegetable
oils and is 100% bio-degradable. BIO chain oil has been
granted the "blue angel" (Blauer Umweltschutz-Engel) for
being particularly environment-friendly (RAL UZ 48).
BIO chain oil is available in the following sizes:
Bio-degradable oil is stable only for a limited period of time. It
should be used within 2 years from the date of manufacture
(printed on the container).
Important note on bio-degradable chain oils:

If you are not planning to use the saw again for an extended
period of time, empty the oil tank and put in a small amount of
3
regular engine oil (SAE 30), and then run the saw for a time.
This is necessary to flush out all remaining bio-degradable oil
from the oil tank, oil-feed system, chain and guide bar, as many
such oils tend to leave sticky residues over time, which can
cause damage to the oil pump or other parts.
The next time you use the saw, fill the tank with BIO chain oil
again.
CAUTION!
NEVER USE WASTE OIL!
C
Waste oil is very dangerous for the environment.
Waste oil contains high amounts of carcinogenic substances.
Residues in waste oil result in a high degree of wear and tear
at the oil pump and the sawing device.
In case of damage caused by using waste oil or unappropriate
chain oil the product guarantee will be null and void.
Your salesman will inform you about the use of chain oil.
