Chain Oil; Filling Fuel And Chain Oil - Makita EA3202S Originalbetriebsanleitung

6-7. 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 l order number 980 008 610
5 l order number 980 008 611
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 BIOTOP
chain oil again. In case of damage caused by using waste
oil or inappropriate chain oil the product guarantee will be
null and void.
Your salesman will inform you about the use of chain oil.

6-8. Filling fuel and chain oil

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.
(Fig. 51)
Unscrew the tank cap (use the universal wrench if necessary,
see illustration) and fill tank with fuel mixture or saw chain oil
up to the bottom edge of the filling neck. Be careful not to spill
fuel or chain oil!

waste oil
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 inappropriate
chain oil the product guarantee will be null and void.
Your salesman will inform you about the use of chain oil.
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, allergic 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 immediately!
Screw on the tank cap by hand all the way.
Clean the tank cap and the area around the tank after
refuelling.
Lubricating the chain
During operation there must always be sufficient chain oil in
the chain‑oil tank to provide good chain lubrication. At medium
oil feed rate, the oil tank holds enough for one fuel tank's worth
of operation. During this procedure check whether there is
enough the chain oil in the tank and refill if necessary. Do this
only with the engine turned off!
Screw on the tank cap by hand all the way.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to let the tank cap touch with the muffler. Heated
muffler may deform it.
