CS3814B, CS4116B Chainsaws

OPERATION

Filling Fuel Tank

1. Shut o engine and allow engine to completely cool

before relling the fuel tank.

2. Move to a well-ventilated area, outdoors, away from

ames and sparks.

3. Clean debris from area around the fuel cap.

4. Loosen fuel cap slowly.

5. Carefully add fuel without spilling.

Note: Use a minimum 87 octane gasoline with NO

ethanol content (50:1 mixture). If using an

ethanol blended fuel, a fuel stabilizer, mixed to

manufacturer specications, is recommended.

6. Do not ll gas tank completely full; allow space for fuel to

expand.

7. Immediately replace fuel cap and tighten. Wipe o

spilled fuel and allow to dry before starting engine.

The saw chain needs to stay lubricated during operation of

the unit. Aside from the fuel reservoir on the chainsaw, there

is also a bar and chain oil reservoir. Use only oil that has been

designed specically for use with chainsaws. Bar and chain oil

has chemical properties which allow it to adhere to the saw

chain and provide better lubrication while the chain is in mo-

tion.

The saw is equipped with an adjustable automatic oiler.

The oiler and oil reservoir are designed such that a full tank of

fuel will run out before a full tank of oil. This ensures that the

bar and chain will receive a constant ow of oil during opera-

tion. Always top o your oil reservoir when re-fueling.

To adjust the automatic oiler you must rst locate the oiler

screw positioned on the under-side of the chainsaw (SEE

FIGURE 4). Turn the screw counter-clockwise to increase and

clockwise to decrease oil ow.

NOTE: It is recommended for the use of your chainsaw to

leave the automatic oiler on full ow.

Filling the Bar and Chain Oil Reservoir

1. While the engine is cool for re-fueling, clean debris from

area around the bar and chain oil cap.

2. Loosen oil cap slowly.

3. Carefully add bar and chain oil without spilling.

4. Do not ll oil reservoir completely full; allow space for oil

to expand.
