[. . . ] If 2-cycle lubricant other than McCulloch Custom Lubricant is to be used, it must be a premium grade oil for 2-cycle air cooled engines mixed at a 40:1 ratio. Do not use any 2-cycle oil product with a recommended mixing ratio of 100:1. If insufficient lubrication is the cause of engine damage, it voids the manufacturer’s engine warranty for that occurrence. MIXING FUEL Mix fuel with McCulloch brand 2 cycle oil in an approved container. WARNING To Test CHAIN BRAKE®: ® The purpose of the CHAIN BRAKE® is to reduce the possibility of injury due to kickback; however, it cannot provide the intended measure of protection if the saw is operated carelessly. Always test the CHAIN BRAKE® before using your saw and periodically while on the job. The CHAIN BRAKE is DISENGAGED (chain can move) when BRAKE LEVER IS PULLED BACK AND LOCKED (Figure 3-5A). The CHAIN BRAKE® is ENGAGED (chain is stopped) when brake lever is in forward position. If strong resistance is felt, or lever does not move into either position, do not use your saw. Take it immediately to a McCulloch Authorized Service Center for repair. RECOMMENDED FUELS H Some conventional gasolines are being blended with oxygenates such as alcohol or an ether compound to B meet clean air standards. Your McCulloch engine is designed to operate satisfactorily on any gasoline intended for automotive use including oxygenated gasolines. CHAIN AND BAR LUBRICATION Always refill the chain oil tank each time the fuel tank is refilled. We recommend using McCulloch Chain, Bar and Sprocket Oil, which contains additives to reduce friction and wear and to assist in the prevention of pitch formation on the bar and chain. ENGINE PRE-START CHECKS E N Never start or operate the saw unless the bar and chain are properly installed. Be certain the CHAIN BRAKE® is disengaged (C) before starting unit (Figure 5-1A).
