Cleaning the oil discharge hole
Small dust or particles may be built up in the oil discharge
hole during operation. These dust or particles may impair the
oil to flow and cause an insufficient lubrication on the whole
saw chain. When a poor chain oil delivery occurs at the top
of guide bar, clean the oil discharge hole as follows.
1.
Remove the sprocket cover and saw chain from the tool.
2.
Remove the small dust or particles using a slotted
screwdriver or the like.
