before use. Never operate the chainsaw without chain oil or at an empty oil tank level as
this will result in extensive damage to the product. Chain life and cutting capacity
depend on optimum lubrication. Therefore, the chain is automatically oiled during
operation via oil outlet.
FILLING OIL TANK: (See Fig. C1 and C2)
1. Set chainsaw on any suitable surface with Oil Filler Cap (5) facing upward.
2. Clean area around the Oil Filler Cap (5) with cloth and unscrew the cap by turning it
counter-clockwise.
3. Add bar and chain oil SAE30 until reservoir is full.
