FUELING & LUBRICATION

WARNING: Remove fuel cap slow-

ly when refueling.

FUELING ENGINE

This engine is certified to operate on

unleaded gasoline. Before operation,

gasoline must be mixed with a good quality

synthetic 2-cycle air-cooled engine oil

designed to be mixed at a ratio of 40:1.

Poulan/WEED EATER brand synthetic oil is

recommended. A 40:1 ratio is obtained by

mixing 3.2 ounces (95 ml) of oil with 1 ga ll on (4

lit ers ) of unleaded gasoline. Incl uded with this

saw is a 3.2 ounce container of Poulan/WEED

EA TER brand synthetic oil. Pour the entire

contents of this container into 1 gallon of

gasoline to achieve the proper fuel mixture. DO

NOT USE automotive or boat oil. These oils

will cause engine damage. When mixing fuel

follow the instructions p rinted on the

container. 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 Poulan or Poulan PRO bar and

chain oil is recommended to protect your unit

against excessive wear from heat and

friction. Poulan or Poulan PRO oil resists

high temperature thinning. If Poulan or

Poulan PRO bar and chain oil is not

available, use a good grade SAE 30 oil.

S Never use waste oil for bar and chain lubri-

cation.

S 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.

STARTING

WARNING: The chain must not

move when the engine runs at idle speed. If

the chain moves at idle speed refer to CAR-

BURETOR ADJUSTMENT within this

manual. Avoid contact with the muffler. A hot

muffler can cause serious burns.

To stop the engine move the ON/STOP

switch to the STOP position.

T o start the engine hold the saw firmly on the

ground as illustrated. Make sure the chain is

free to turn without contacting any object.

Hold saw firmly while pulling starter rope.

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 handle and let the rope rewind slowly.

For cold weather starting, start the unit at

FULL CHOKE; allow the engine to warm up

before squeezing the throttle trigger.

NOTE: Do not cut material with the choke/

fast idle lever at the FULL CHOKE position.

STARTING A COLD ENGINE (or

warm engine after running out of

fuel):

NOTE:

In the following steps, when the

choke/fast idle lever is pulled out to the full

extent, the correct throttle setting for starting

is set automatically.

(SIDE VIEW)

1. Move ON/STOP switch to the ON posi-

tion.

2. Pull out choke/fast idle to the full extent

(to the FULL CHOKE position).

3. Slowly press primer bulb 6 times.

4. Pull the starter rope sharply 5 times with

your right hand. Then, proceed to the

next step.

NOTE: If the engine sounds as if it is trying

to start before the 5th pull, stop pulling and

immediately proceed to the next step.

5. Push the choke/fast idle lever in to the

HALF CHOKE position.
