Oiling (fig. G)
Before first use and every ten minutes of use you must
u
oil the product with the correct chain oil. (Cat No A6027)
Open the oiling cover (4) and insert the bottle into the
oil filling hole (15), apply pressure to the bottle once to
dispense oil.
This should be adequate for about 10 minutes of cutting
u
depending upon cutting speed and type of wood.
The hole feeds the oil through to the saw chain on to the
chain guide bar (3) and an excessive amount of oil applied to
the unit could mean the oil drips from the unit around the jaw
area. This is normal and is nothing to be concerned about.
