Use the specified product

Fuel and oil cans should be approved for their intended liquid and used with compatible spouts. Keep fuel, chain oil and mixed fuel clearly identified to prevent costly filling errors.

Clean handling matters

Remove dirt around caps and grease points before opening them. Measure the required quantity, avoid mixing incompatible products and dispose of used oil and contaminated materials responsibly.

Confirm the machine details

Check the full model, engine type and product number. For service parts or fluids, the current operator manual is the controlling reference.

Record what was used and when it was changed. This prevents accidental mixing at the next service and makes it easier to buy the same approved specification again.
