Fueling - Stihl MS 461 Manual De Instrucciones

English
Warning!
To reduce the risk of personal injury
from loss of control and / or contact with
the running cutting tool, do not use your
unit with incorrect idle adjustment. At
correct idle speed, the cutting tool
should not move.
If your power tool shows an incorrect
idle adjustment, have your STIHL dealer
check your power tool and make proper
adjustments and repairs.
The idle speed and maximum speed of
the engine change if you switch from a
fuel with a certain ethanol content to
another fuel with a much higher or lower
ethanol content.
This problem can be avoided by always
using fuel with the same ethanol
content.
Use only STIHL two-stroke engine oil or
equivalent high-quality two-stroke
engine oils that are designed for use
only in air cooled two-cycle engines.
We recommend STIHL HP Ultra 2-Cycle
Engine Oil since it is specially
formulated for use in STIHL engines.
Do not use BIA or TCW rated (two-
stroke water cooled) mix oils or other
mix oils that state they are for use in both
water cooled and air cooled engines
(e.g., outboard motors, snowmobiles,
chain saws, mopeds, etc.).
Take care when handling gasoline.
Avoid direct contact with the skin and
avoid inhaling fuel vapor. When filling at
the pump, first remove the container
from your vehicle and place the
container on the ground before filling. To
reduce the risk of sparks from static
26
discharge and resulting fire and/or
explosion, do not fill fuel containers that
are sitting in or on a vehicle or trailer.
The container should be kept tightly
closed in order to limit the amount of
moisture that gets into the mixture.
The machine's fuel tank should be
cleaned as necessary.
Fuel mix ages
Only mix sufficient fuel for a few days
work, not to exceed 3 months of storage.
Store in approved fuel-containers only.
When mixing, pour oil into the container
first, and then add gasoline. Close the
container and shake it vigorously by
hand to ensure proper mixing of the oil
with the fuel.

Fueling

Preparations
Before fueling, clean the filler cap
N
and the area around it to ensure that
no dirt falls into the tank.
Always thoroughly shake the mixture in
the canister before fueling your
machine.
Position the machine so that the
N
filler cap is facing up.
In order to reduce the risk of fire and
other personal injury from escaping gas
vapor and fumes, remove the fuel filler
cap carefully so as to allow any pressure
build-up in the tank to release slowly
