Filling Chain Oil Tank; Checking Chain Lubrication; Chain Brake - Stihl MS 460 Manual De Instrucciones

Filling Chain
Oil Tank
: Thoroughly clean the oil filler cap
and the area round it to ensure that
no dirt falls into the tank.
: Remove the filler cap.
: Refill the chain oil tank every time
you refuel.
: Close the filler cap.
There must still be a small amount of oil
in the oil tank when the fuel tank is
empty.
If the oil level in the tank does not go
down, the reason may be a problem in
the oil supply system: Check chain
lubrication, clean the oilways, contact
your servicing dealer for assistance if
necessary. STIHL recommends that you
have maintenance and repair work
performed only by a STIHL servicing
dealer.
Rescue Saw

Checking Chain Lubrication

The saw chain must always throw off a
small amount of oil.
Never operate your saw without
chain lubrication. If the chain runs
dry, the whole cutting attachment
will be irretrievably damaged within
a very short time.
Always check chain lubrication and
oil level in tank before starting work.
Every new chain has to be broken in for
about 2 to 3 minutes.
After breaking in chain, check chain
tension and adjust if necessary – see
"Checking Chain Tension".
