OPERATION
Chain Lubricant
Proper lubrication of the chain while in
operation minimizes friction between
the chain, the guide bar and sprocket.
Use ECHO genuine chain oil or ECHO
recommended chain oil specially
formulated for bars and chains for
proper lubrication.
Consult your ECHO dealer for the
proper chain oil.
Never use waste or reclaimed oil
to avoid various malfunctions in oil
system, or on chain and guide bar.
Lubrication problems caused by
the use of improper oil will void the
warranty.
Especially, vegetable based chain oil
quickly turns to resin and adheres to oil
pump, chain and guide bar.
It causes malfunctions and will shorten
product life. If vegetable oil use is
required due to local / municipal rule or
any other reason, then flush chain oil
system with mineral or chemical based
chain oil after vegetable oil use.
Moving parts can amputate fingers or cause severe injuries.
Keep hands, clothing and loose objects away from all openings.
Always stop motor, remove battery, and make sure all moving
parts have come to a complete stop before removing obstructions,
clearing debris, or servicing unit.

fires around dry vegetation. Metal cutters can also create sparks if
the cutter strikes rocks,metal, or other hard objects. Contact local
fire authorities for laws or regulations regarding fire prevention
