Oil And Fuel - Maruyama P23-10 Manual Del Operador

CAUTION
• It may take some time before the oil
begins to discharge once the oil has
been added to a new product or when oil
has been added to an empty tank. Do
not turn the pruner on at a high speed
in such circumstances.
• W h e n a n e w c h a i n i s t o b e u s e d ,
immerse the chain in chain oil for some
time prior to installing it on the pruner,
or pour the oil directly on to the chain
and the guide bar, after installing it on
the pruner. If they are not properly lubri-
cated with oil the pruner may seize.
The regulating screw has three positions, Minimum,
Intermediate and Maximum, only.
The regulating screw is set to Intermediate at the time
of shipping. It is recommended that the product be used
with this setting for ordinary use.
• Increase the discharging rate when cutting hard
branches or branches with a lot of resin (pitch),
or when the viscosity of the oil is high during
winter.
1. Insert a minus screw driver into the regulating
screw at the bottom of the main unit.
2. When applying pressure with the minus screw
driver, turn the screw to the right (clockwise) to
reduce the discharging rate and to the left
(counterclockwise) to increase the discharging
rate.
3. Turn the engine on and turn the saw chain, with
the guide bar facing the ground or tree. Oil will
attach to the ground or tree, if the oil is
discharging.
CAUTION
• Using the pruner with a saw chain too loose
may result in the saw chain becoming
dislodged and could cause an accident.
Please be sure to check the tension of
the saw chain before starting any work.

Maximum
Be sure to turn the screw while applying
pressure to it with the screwdriver.

Oil and Fuel

POTENTIAL HAZARD
In certain conditions gasoline is extremely
flammable and highly explosive.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn
you, others and cause property damage.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Use a funnel and fill the fuel tank outdoors,
in an open area, when the engine is cold.
Wipe up any gasoline that spills.
Do not fill the fuel tank completely full.
Add gasoline to the fuel tank until the
level is 1/4" to 1/2" ( 6 mm to 13mm )
below the bottom of the filler neck. This
empty space in the tank allows gasoline
to expand.
Never smoke when handling gasoline, and
stay away from an open flame or where
gasoline fume may be ignited by a spark.
Store gasoline in an approved container and
keep it out of the reach of children.
Never buy more than a 30-day supply of
gasoline.
1. Do not smoke near fuel.
2. Mix and pour fuel outdoors and where there are
no sparks or flames.
POTENTIAL HAZARD
− US-15 −
• Gasoline contains gasses that can build
up pressure inside a gas tank.
