Checking The Chain Lubrication - Westfalia GM941 Instruction Manual


If the oil level in the tank does not drop, the oil duct in the housing
and the guide bar may be clogged. Check and clean it as needed.

Caution! The saw can re-oil. Please note that the saw re-oils after
use and oil may leak out if it is stored on its side or on the head.
This is a normal process. As each saw it checked during production
and tested with oil, a small residue may be in the tank.

Checking the Chain Lubrication


Hold the running chain saw about
15 cm over a suitable surface for a few
moments. If the oil thrown from the
chain forms a slight track on the
surface the lubrication is sufficient.

Do not use the pole pruner if the
lubrication is insufficient.

work during commonly accepted or mandatory rest periods.
