ADDING BAR AND CHAIN LUBRICANT
(NOT INCLUDED)
See Figure 5.
Use premium bar and chain lubricant (not includ-
ed). It is designed for chains and chain oilers, and
is formulated to perform over a wide temperature
range with no dilution required.
NOTE:
Pole saw comes from the factory with no
bar and chain lubricant added. Level should also
be checked after every 20 minutes of use and
refilled as needed.
Remove oil cap.
Carefully pour bar and chain lubricant into the
bar lube reservoir.
Wipe off excess lubricant.
Check and fill the reservoir when quick view oil
indicator is below the second to last indicator
line.
Repeat as needed.
NOTE:
Do not use dirty, used or otherwise con-
taminated lubricants. Damage may occur to the
bar or chain.
NOTE:
It is normal for lubricant to seep from the
saw when not in use. To prevent seepage, empty
the oil tank after each use then run for one minute.
