  My new petrol engine won't start, what should I do?

  Please use fresh petrol. The fuel should be less than 30 days old, grade 87 octane, and free of water and dirt. It's best to use ethanol-free fuel. Your product is 4-cycle, so do not mix oil into the petrol. 

  Go through the cold start starting process. Remember not to engage the throttle while pulling the starter cord. If the tool still doesn't start after several pulls, depress and release the throttle trigger to release the choke, then pull the starter cord until the engine starts. Refer to the product manual for full instructions.

  Why does my chain saw leak bar oil?
  This is a common occurrence with most chainsaws. After use, a chain saw is hot, and a slight pressure can build up in the oil reservoir. This could cause oil to seep out after shutting off the saw. Pressure can be released by loosening and re-tightening the bar oil filler cap. Using premium bar and chain oil will reduce the chance of this happening. If you use regular motor oil in place of bar and chain oil, your chain saw may leak after shutting off. A good practice is to set your saw on something to absorb oil after each use.
• 

  What type of oil should I use for the bar and chain on my chainsaw?
  It's important to use a bar and chain lubricant for chainsaws. Bar and chain lubricants have additive to help the oil adhere to the bar and chain longer. DO NOT use motor oil, as it will not adequately protect the bar and chain.
