Chain Saw Oil; Saw Chain - Westfalia 87 74 50 Betriebsanleitung

Chain Saw Oil


The chain saw is delivered without chain saw oil. Fill into the oil
tank chain saw oil before using for the first time. Operating the
chain saw without chain saw oil will damage the chain saw and the
sword.

Place the chain saw on a level surface and open the oil tank cap
(4). Only use bio-degradable chain saw oil. On the flag window of
the filling hole you can check the oil level.

While filling, make sure dirt cannot get into the oil tank. Dirt can
damage the built-in oil pump.

While cutting, make sure the oil level does not drop under the
minimum mark.

Saw Chain


Only use sharp chains. Dull chains can easily get jammed.

While working with new chains, regularly check the chain tension
because new chains can lengthen considerably upon initial opera-
tion.

The service life of a saw chain mainly depends on sufficient
lubrication and correct tensioning.

Do not tension a hot chain. After cooling down, the chain may
shorten and become over tensioned.
