Fueling - Stihl MS 360 C Instruction Manual

english / USA
We recommend STIHL 50:1 two-stroke
engine oil since it is specially formulated
for use in STlHL engines.
Do not use BIA or TCW (two-stoke water
cooled) mix oils.
Use only STIHL 50:1 heavy-duty
engine oil or equivalent quality two
stroke engine oils for the fuel mix in
models with a catalytic converter.
Take care when handling gasoline.
Avoid direct contact with the skin and
avoid inhaling fuel vapour.
The canister should be kept tightly
closed in order to avoid any moisture
getting into the mixture.
The fuel tank and the canister in which
fuel mix is stored should be cleaned
from time to time.
Fuel mix ages
Only mix sufficient fuel for a few days
work, not to exceed 3 months of storage.
Store in approved safety fuel-canisters
only. When mixing, pour oil into the
canister first, and then add gasoline.

Fueling

Before fueling, clean the filler cap and
the area around it to ensure that no dirt
falls into the tank.
Always thoroughly shake the mixture in
the canister before fueling your
machine.
!
Warning!
In order to reduce the risk of burns or
other personal injury from escaping gas
vapor and fumes, remove the fuel filler
cap carefully so as to allow any pressure
build-up in the tank to release slowly.
