FILLING OIL RESERVOIR

CAUTION: CHECK OIL LEVEL
FREQUENTLY AND FILL AS NEEDED.
NEVER OPERATE THE CHAIN SAW IF
OIL IS NOT VISIBLE.
Bar and chain oil is required to properly
lubricate the bar and chain Use
OREGON® bar and chain oil for best
results It is specially designed to provide
low friction and faster cuts NEVER use
oil or other lubricants not specifically
designed for use on the bar and chain
This can lead to a clogged oil system,
which may cause premature wear of the
bar and chain
Place the chain saw on its side on a firm,
flat surface, so that the oil cap is on top
(Fig 7) After cleaning any debris from the
cap area, remove the cap and carefully
pour the bar and chain oil into the
reservoir Replace the cap and check the
presence of oil through the oil inspection
window Additional bar and chain oil is
necessary when the reservoir is dry,
shortly after oil is no longer viewable
through the oil inspection window
