WARNING:
information in the safety rules before you be-
gin. If you do not understand the safety rules,
do not attempt to fuel your unit. Call

FUELING ENGINE
WARNING:
when refueling.
HELPFUL TIP
To obtain the correct oil mix
ratio, pour 2.6 ounces of
2- - cycle synthetic oil into
one gallon of fresh gas.
IMPORTANT:
This equipment is designed to
operate on unleaded gasoline with a minimum
87 octane (R+M/2 method), with ethanol
blended up to 10% maximum by volume (E-10).
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 50:1.
Poulan/WEED EATER brand synthetic oil is
recommended. Mix gasoline and oil at a ratio of
50:1. A 50:1 ratio is obtained by mixing 2.6 fluid
ounces of oil with 1 gallon of unleaded gasoline.
DO NOT USE automotive oil or marine oil.
These oils will cause engine damage. When
mixing fuel, follow instructions printed on
container. Once oil is added to gasoline, shake
container momentarily to assure that the fuel is
thoroughly mixed. Always read and follow the
safety rules relating to fuel before fueling your
unit. Purchase fuel in quantities that can be used
within 30 days to assure fuel freshness.
CAUTION:
Never use straight gasoline in
your unit. This will cause permanent engine
damage and void the limited warranty. Do not
use alternate fuels such as ethanol blends
above 10% by volume (E-15, E-85) or any
methanol blended fuel. Use of these fuels can
cause major engine performance and durability
problems.
BAR AND CHAIN LUBRICATION
The bar and chain require lubrication. The chain
oiler provides continuous lubrication to the chain
and guide bar. Be sure to fill the bar oil tank
when you fill the fuel tank (Capacity = 4.6 fl. oz.).
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 discolor-
ation of the bar. The oil output is automatically
metered during operation. Always fill the bar oil
tank when you fill the fuel tank.
Genuine Poulan or Poulan PRO bar and
chain oil is recommended to protect your unit
against excessive wear from heat and fric-
tion. 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
lubrication.
S Always stop the engine before removing
the oil cap.
Be sure to read the fuel
Remove fuel cap slowly
HOW TO STOP YOUR UNIT
