Adding bar and chain lubricant
Use a bar and chain lubricant (not included) with this
product. It is designed for chains and chain oilers,
and is formulated to perform over a wide temperature
range with no dilution required.
Note:
Chain saw comes from the factory with no bar
and chain oil added.
The level should also be checked after every 20
minutes of use and refilled as needed.
• Remove oil cap (N).
• Carefully pour the bar and chain oil into the tank.
• Wipe off excess oil and replace cap.
• Check and fill the oil tank when quick view oil
indicator is below the MIN. line.
• Repeat as needed.
Note:
• Do not use dirty, used or otherwise contaminated oils. Damage may occur to the bar or chain.
•
It is normal for oil to seep from the saw when not in use. To prevent seepage, empty the oil tank
after each use then run for one minute. When storing the unit for a long period of time (three
months or longer) be sure the chain is lightly lubricated; this will prevent rust on the chain and bar
sprocket.
IMPORTANT
To preserve natural resources, please recycle or dispose of oil properly. Consult your local waste
authority for information regarding available recycling and/disposal options.
