Fuel mixture

The engine of the chain saw is a high-efficiency two-stroke engine. It runs on a mixture of gasoline and two-stroke engine oil.

The engine is designed for unleaded regular gasolinewith a min. octane value of 91 ROZ. In case no such fuel is available, you can use fuel with a higher octane value. This will not affect the engine.

In order to obtain an optimum engine output and to protect your health and the environment use unleaded fuel only.

For lubricating the engine use a two-stroke engine oil (quality grade: TC-3), which is added to the fuel. The engine has been designed for use of MAKITA high-performance two-stroke en- gine oil and a mixture ratio of only 50:l to protect the environ- ment. In addition, a long service life and reliable operation with a minimum emission of exhaust gases are ensured.

MAKITA high-performance two-stroke engine oil is available in the following sizes to suit your individual requirements:

1 I ordernumber 980008607

100 ml order number 980008 606

In case MAKITA high-performance two-stroke engine oil is not available, it is urgently recommended to use a mixture ratio of 40:1, as otherwise optimum operation of the engine cannot be guaranteed.

The correct mixture ratio:

50:l when using MAKITA high-performancetwo-stroke engi- ne oil, i. e. mix 50 parts gasoline with 1 part oil.

40:l when using other two-stroke engine oils, i. e. mix40 parts gasoline with 1 part oil.

Chain oil

Use an oil with adhesive additive for lubricating the chain and guide bar. The adhesive additive prevents the oil from being flung off the chain too quickly.

We recommend the use of chain oil which is bio-degradable in order to protect the environment. The use of bio-degradable oil may even be required by local regulations.

The chain oil BIOTOP sold by MAKITA is made of special vegetable oils and is 100%bio-degradable. BIOTOP has been granted the "blue angel" (Blauer Umweltschutz-Engel)for being particularly environment-friendly (RAL UZ 48).

BIOTOP chain oil is available in the following sizes:

1 I order number 980008610

5 I order number 980008 611

20 I order number 980008 613

Bio-degradable oil is stable only for a limited period of time. It should be used within 2 years from the date of manufacture (printed on the container).

Important note on bio-degradable chain oils:

If you are not planning to use the saw again for an extended period of time (longer than the expiration date of the chain oil), empty the oil tank and put in a small amount of regular engine oil (SAE 30),and then run the saw for a time. This is necessary to flush out all remaining bio-degradableoil from the oil tank, oil- feed system, chain and guide bar, as many such oils tend to leave sticky residuesover time, which can cause damage to the oil pump or other parts.

The next time you use the saw, fill the tank with BIOTOP chain oil again.

NOTE:

For preparing the fuel-oil mixture first mix the entire oil quantity with half of the fuel required, then add the remaining fuel. Thoroughly shake the mixture before filling it into the chain saw tank.

It is not wise to add more engine oil than specifiedto ensure safe operation.This will only result in a higher production of combus- tion residues which will pollute the environment and clog the exhaust channel in the cylinder as well as the muffler. In addition, fuel consumption will rise and performance will de- crease.

NEVER USE WASTE OIL

Waste oil is very dangerous for the environment.

Waste oil contains high amounts of carcinogenic substances.

Residues in waste oil result in a high degree of wear and tear at the oil pump and the sawing device.

In case of damage caused by using waste oil or unappropriate chain oil the product guarantee will be null and void.

Your salesman will inform you about the use of chain oil.
