Checking Chain Lubrication
For automatic and reliable lubrication of
the chain and guide bar:
Use only a quality, environmentally
compatible chain and bar lubricant.
STIHL chain lubricant with non-fling
additive or the rapidly biodegradable
STIHL Bioplus is recommended.
Important: Biological chain oil must be
resistant to aging (e.g. STIHL Bioplus)
since it will otherwise quickly turn to
resin. This results in hard deposits that
are difficult to remove, especially in the
area of the chain drive, clutch and chain.
It may even cause the oil pump to seize.
The service life of the chain and guide
bar depends on the quality of the
lubricant. It is therefore essential to use
only a specially formulated chain
lubricant.

with waste oil. If waste oil does get on
your skin, wash with soap and water.
Do not use waste oil for any purpose,
and dispose of it only at authorized
disposal locations.
If the oil tank is still partly full, the reason
may be a problem in the oil supply

Every new chain has to be broken
in for about 2 to 3 minutes.
Check chain lubrication, clean the
oil passages, contact your STIHL dealer
