when refueling.

This engine is certified to operate on unleaded gasoline. Before operation, gasoline must be mixed with a good quality 2-cycle air-cooled engine oil designed to be mixed at a ratio of 50:1. (A 50:1 ratio is obtained by mixing 2.5 ounces ofoil with 1

gallon of unleaded gasoline). DO NOT USE automotive or boat oil. These oils will cause

enginedamage. When mixing fuel followthe instructions printed on the containe_ Always read and follow the safety rules listed under

HANDLE FUEL WITH CAUTION.

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 quickly 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 Husqvarna bar and chain oil is rec- ommended to protect your unit against exces- sive wear from heat and friction. Husqvarna oil resists high temperature thinning.

If Husqvarna bar oil is not available, use a good grade SAE 30 oil.

•Never use waste oil for bar and chain lu- brication.

•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- tional information.

To start the engine hold the saw firmly on the ground as illustrated below. Make sure the chain is free to turn without contacting any object.

Use only 15"- 18" of rope per pull.

Hold saw firmly while pulling starter rope.

Important points to remember

When pulling the starter rope, do not use the full extent of the rope as this can cause the rope to break. Do not let starter rope snap back. Hold the handleand let the rope rewind slowly.

In terms of safety features, both chainsaws come with a chain brake that is activated in the event of kickback, providing an extra layer of protection for the operator. The anti-vibration technology significantly reduces vibrations, allowing for more comfortable operation and limiting operator fatigue.

The easy-start system is another practical feature of the Husqvarna 141 and 136. This system helps users start the chainsaw with minimal effort, ensuring that you can get to work quickly without dealing with frustrating starting issues.
