With grip in an upright position:
Insert the cap – positioning marks
N
on the cap and the fuel tank opening
must line up.

Checking for proper closure
The lug on the grip must engage
N
entirely in the recess (arrow), and
the grip must lie completely flush
with the top of the cap.
Grip the cap and check for
N
tightness.
If the cap can be moved, it is not
N
properly installed.
Misalignment of the cap parts
If the cap does not drop fully into the
N
opening when the positioning marks
line up and/or if the cap does not
tighten properly when twisted, the
base of the cap may be rotated out
of position vis-à-vis the top.
Such misalignment can result from
N
handling, cleaning or an improper
attempt at tightening.
Left: Base of improperly aligned
cap (with open space)
Right: Base of cap correctly posi-
tioned for installation
To correct a misalignment, turn the
N
cap (with the grip up) until it drops
fully into the tank opening.
Twist the cap counterclockwise as
N
far as it will go (approx. 1/4 turn) –
this will twist the base of the cap into
the correct position.
Twist the cap clockwise, closing it
N
normally – see the sections
"Closing" and "Checking for proper
closure."
If your cap still does not tighten
N
properly, it may be damaged or
broken; immediately stop use of the
unit and take it to your authorized
STIHL dealer for repair.
