Opsætning og montering
1. Udpakning
Fjern forsigtigt alle komponenter fra emballagen. Kontroller, at alle dele er til stede og ubeskadigede. Se pakkelisten for en komplet oversigt.
2. Fuel and Oil Preparation
The MS 151 TC-E uses a 2-stroke engine that requires a mixture of gasoline and 2-stroke engine oil. Use high-quality unleaded gasoline and Stihl 2-stroke engine oil or an equivalent high-quality oil designed for air-cooled 2-stroke engines.
- Blandingsforhold: Follow the recommended mixing ratio specified by Stihl, typically 50:1 (50 parts gasoline to 1 part oil).
- Brændstoftank kapacitet: 0.20 liter.
- Kædeolietankens kapacitet: 150 cm³. Use only high-quality chain lubricant.
Vigtig: Always mix fuel in a separate, approved container. Never mix fuel directly in the chainsaw's fuel tank.
3. Montering af sværd og kæde
- Sørg for, at motoren er slukket, og at kædebremsen er aktiveret.
- Fjern kædehjulets dæksel.
- Place the guide bar onto the studs, ensuring the bar groove aligns with the drive link of the chain.
- Fit the chain around the sprocket and into the guide bar groove. Ensure the cutting edges of the chain are facing forward on the top of the guide bar.
- Sæt kædehjulsdækslet på igen, og spænd møtrikkerne med hånden.
4. Justering af kædespænding
Proper chain tension is critical for safe and efficient operation. The chain should be snug against the bottom of the guide bar, but still able to be pulled around by hand. Adjust tension using the tensioning screw, then fully tighten the chain sprocket cover nuts.
