OPERATION
ADJUSTING OIL FLOW RATE
Never fill the oil reservoir nor adjust the oiler with
the engine running.
An increase in bar oil flow rate will speed oil consumption,
requiring more frequent checks on the oil reservoir.
To ensure sufficient lubrication, it may be necessary to
check the oil level more frequently than at fuel tank refills.
The guide bar and chain are lubricated automatically by
a pump that operates whenever the chain rotates. The
pump is set at the factory to deliver a minimum flow rate,
but it can be adjusted in the field. A temporary increase
in oil flow is often desirable when cutting things like
hardwood or wood with a lot of pitch.
WORKING WITH THE POLE PRUNER
Adjust the pump:
1. Stop the engine and
make sure the stop switch
is in the OFF position.
2. Place the unit on its side
with the oil reservoir up.
