This engine is certified to operate on unleaded
gasoline. Before operation,
gasoline must be
mixed with a good quality synthetic
2-cycle
air-cooled engine oil designed to be mixed at a
ratio of 40:1.
Poulae/WEED
EATER
brand
synthetic
oil is recommended.
Mix gasoline
and oil at a ratio of 40:1. A 40:1 ratio is obtained
by mixing 3.2 ounces of oil with 1 gallon of
unieaded gasoline. Included with this saw is a
3.2 ounce
container
of oil. Pour the entire
contents
of this container
into
1 gallon of
gasoline to achieve the proper fuel mixture. DO
NOT USE automotive oil or boat oil. These oils
will cause engine damage. When mixing fuel,
follow instructions
printed on container. Once
oil is added
to gasoline,
shake
container
momentarily
to
assure
that
the
fuel
is
thoroughly mixed. Always read and follow the
safety rules relating to fuel before fueling your
unit.
BAR
AND
CHAIN
LUBRICATION
The bar and chain require continuous
lubri-
cation.
Lubrication
is provided
by the auto-
matic oiler system when the oil tank is kept
filled. Lack of oil will quicMy ruin the bar and
chain.
Too little oil will cause
overheating
shown by smoke coming from the chain and/
or discoloration
of the bar.
In freezing weather
oil will thicken,
making it
necessary
to thin bar and chain oil with a
small amount
(5 to 10%) of #1 Diesel Fuel or
kerosene.
Bar and chain
oil must be free
flowing for the oil system to pump enough oil
for adequate
lubrication.
Genuine
Poulan
or Poulan
PRO
bar and
chain oit is recommended
to protect your unit
against
excessive
wear
from
heat
and
friction.
Poulan or Poulan PRO
oil resists
high
temperature
thinning.
If Poulan
or
Poulan
PRO
bar
and chain
oil is not
available,
use a good grade SAE 30 oil
• Never use waste oil for bar and chain lubri-
cation.
• Always
stop the engine
before removing
the oil cap.
IMPORTANT
Experience
indicates
that alcohol-blended
fuels
(called
gasohol
or using
ethanol
or
methanol)
can attract
moisture
which leads
to separation
and formation
of acids during
storage.
Acidic
gas can damage
the fuel
system
of an engine while
in storage.
To
avoid
engine
problems,
the
fuel
system
should
be emptied
before
storage
for 30
days or longer.
Drain the gas tank. start the
engine and let it run until the fuel lines and
carburetor
are empty.
Use fresh fuel next
season.
See STORAGE
section
for addi-
tionat information.
