Fuelmix and chain oil
Min 3 m
(10 ft)
/¡\ WARNING! The chain saw is equipped with a two-stroke
engine. Always run the saw with fuel, which is mixed with oil.
Provide for good ventilation, when fueling or handling fuel.
Fuel
Always use a regular unleaded gasoline with minimum
octane number of 90.
This engine is certified to operate on unleaded gasoline.
Two-Stroke oil
• For the best performance, use Husqvarna two-stroke oil, which
is especially developed for chain saws.
Mixing ratio 1:50 (2 %).
• If Husqvarna two-stroke oil is not available, you may use
another two-stroke oil of good quality.
Mixing ratio 1:33 (3%).
• In countries where no two-stroke oil is available, motor oil SAE
30 can be used. Mixing ratio 1:25 (4%).
• Never use multi-grade oil (10 W-30) or waste oil.
• Always mix fuel and oil in a clean container.
• Always start by filling half the amount of fuel, which is to be
used. Then add the whole amount of oil. Mix (shake) the fuel
mixture. Add the remaining amount of fuel.
• Mix (shake) the fuel mix thoroughly before filling the fuel tank
on the saw.

Chain oil
• The chain lubrication system is automatic. Always use special
chain oil with good adhesive characteristics.
• In countries where no special chain oil is available, gear box oil
EP 90 can be used.
• Never use waste oil. This results in damage to the oil pump, the
bar and the chain.
• It is important to use oil of the right viscosity according to the air
temperature.
• In temperatures below 0°C (32°F) some oils become less
viscous. This can overload the oil pump and result in damage
to the oil pump components.
• Contact your servicing dealer when choosing chain oil.
Fueling
^WARNING!
• Always shut off the engine before refueling.
• Slowly open the fuel tank, when filling up with fuel, so that
possible over- pressure disappears.
• Tighten the fuel cap carefully, after fueling.
• Always move the saw away from the fueling area before
starting.
Before fueling, clean the tank cap area carefully, to ensure that
no dirt falls into the tank and causes malfunction. Make sure that
the fuel is well mixed by shaking the container, before fueling.
The volume of the chain oil tank and the fuel tank are adjusted to
each other. Therefore, always fill up with chain oil and fuel at the
same time.
