Chain Oil - Scheppach CSP2540 Originalbetriebsanleitung

The correct mixture ratio:
40:1 when using other two-stroke engine oils, i. e.
mix 40 parts gasoline with 1 part oil.
Gasoline
1.0 Us-gal. (3.7 l)
2.5 Us-gal. (9.4 l)
5.0 Us-gal. (18.9 l)
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 speci-
fied to ensure safe operation. This will only re-
sult in a higher production of combustion res-
idues 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 decrease.
The storage of fuel
Fuels have a limited storage life. Fuel and fuel mix-
tures age through evaporation, especially at high
temperatures. Aged fuel and fuel mixtures can
cause starting problems and damage the engine.
Purchase only that amount of fuel, which will be con-
sumed over the next few months. At high tempera-
tures, once fuel has been mixed it should be used up
in 6-8 weeks.
Store fuel only in proper containers, in dry, cool,
secure locations!
AVOID SKIN AND EYE CONTACT!
Mineral oil products degrease your skin. If your skin
comes in contact with these substances repeatedly
and for an extended period of time, it will desiccate.
Various skin deseases may result. In addition, aller-
gic reactions are known to occur.
Eyes can be irritated by contact with oil. If oil comes
into your eyes, immediately wash them with clear
water. If your eyes are still irritated, see a doctor im-
mediately!

7.8 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-degra-
dable in order to protect the environment. The use
of bio-degradable oil may even be required by lo-
cal regulations. 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, 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-degradable oil from the oil
tank, oil-feed system, chain and guide bar, as many
such oils tend to leave sticky residues over time,
which can cause damage to the oil pump or other
parts.

The next time you use the saw, fill the tank with
chain oil again. In case of damage caused by using
waste oil or unappropriate chain oil the product guar-
antee will be null and void. Your salesman will inform
you about the use of chain oil.
NEVER USE WASTE OIL!
Waste oil is very dangerous for the environment.
Waste oil contains high amounts of carcinogen-
ic 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 guar-
antee will be null and void. Your salesman will inform
you about the use of chain oil.
7.9 Refuelling Fig.13
FOLLOW THE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS!
Be careful and cautious when handling fuels.
• The engine must be switched off!
• Thoroughly clean the area around the caps, to
prevent dirt from getting into the fuel or oil tank.
• Unscrew the cap and fill the tank with fuel (fuel/oil
mixture) or chain oil as the case may be. Fill up to
the bottom edge of the filler neck.
• Be careful not to spill fuel or chain oil!
• Tighten the tank cap as far as it will go..
After refuelling, clean the tank cap and sur-
roundings and make sure the cap is sealed!
Lubricating the chain
During operation there must always be sufficient
chain oil in the chain-oil tank to provide good chain
lubrication. One filling is sufficient for about one
half-hour of continuous operation. When working,
check that there is still sufficient chain oil in the tank
and top up if necessary. Check only when the en-
gine is switched off!
Adjusting the chain lubrication Fig.14
The engine must be switched off.!
You can adjust the oil pump feed rate with the ad-
justing screw (J). The amount of oil can be adjusted
using the universal wrench (23).
To ensure troublefree operation of the oil pump the
oil guide groove at the crank case (K) and the oil in-
let bore in the guide bar (L) must be cleaned regular-
ly. (Fig.15).
Checking the chain lubrication
Never work with the chain saw withoute sufficient
chain lubrication. Otherwise the service life of the
chain and guide bar will be reduced.
Before starting work check the oil level in the tank
and the oil feed.
Check the oil feed rate as described below:
• Start the chain saw.Hold the running chain saw
approx. 6" (15 cm) above a trunk or the ground
(use an appropriate base).
If the lubrication is sufficient, you will see a light oil
trace because oil will be flung off the sawing device.
Pay attention to the direction the wind is blowing and
avoid unnecessary exposure to the oil spray!
NOTE:
After the saw has been turned off it is normal for re-
sidual chain oil to drip from the oil feed system, the
