Fuel and oil

The power plant of this chain saw is a twostroke engine, that is run on a petrol- and oil mixture of certain proportions ace. to the table.

Do not use but a twostroke oil of high quality, e.g. Husqvarna Twostroke Oil, that is specially developed for chain saws.

NOTE!

No extra oil is needed in the petro/ during the running-in period of the chain saw.

For lubricating the chain and guide bar we recommend a chain lubricating oil with good adhesive properties.

During the wintertime at air temperatures below O°C (32”F) some types pf chain lubricating oils are viscous. This can cause overloading of the oil pump, which can result in damage of the pump drive and DumD Darts. Under cold weather conditions it is therefore ne- cessary to use a “wintergrade” oil which stays fluent even when cold.

Concerning the choice of oil and its suit- ability at different air temperatures, please refer to your Husqvarna dealer.

Always use quality chain oil. If not available use gear box oil type EP 90.

ALWAYS TOP UP WITH FUEL AND CHAIN LUBRICANT AT THE SAME TIME.

NOTE\

On no account waste oil should be used as this can damage the oi/ pump.

Oil mixture:

Husqvarna Twostroke Oil 1:50 (270).

Ordinary twostroke oil 1:25 (4%)
