Chain
Lubrication
Adequate lubrication of the saw chain is essential at all
times to minimize friction with the guide bar. Never starve
the bar and chain of oil. Running the saw with too little oil
will decrease cutting efficiency, shorten saw chain life,
cause rapid dulling of chain, and cause excessive wear of
bar from overheating. Too little oil is evidenced by smoke,
bar discoloration
or pitch build-up.
Automatic
Oiler
Your chain saw is equipped with an automatic gear driven
oiler system. The oiler automatically
delivers the proper
amount of oil to the bar and chain. As the engine speed
increases, so does the oil flow to the bar. The amount of
oil flowing to the bar and chain may be changed by turn-
ing the adjustment screw (D) with a small flat head screw-
driver as shown in Fig. 11. Turn the screw clockwise to
DECREASE oil flow and counterclockwise
to INCREASE
the flow,
