G, PAR AHD'cHA!" LUBB!¢ANi;
• The guide bar and cutting chain require con-
tinuous lubrication in order to remain in
operating condition. Lubrication is provided
by the automatic oiler system when the oil
tank is kept filled.
-- Lackof lubricant will quickly ruin the bar and
chain.
--Too little lubricant will cause overheating
shown by smoke coming from the chain and/or
discolorationof the guide bar rails,
Use Sears Bar and Chain Lubricant #71-36554 -
I qt. or #71-36556 - 1 gal. or clean SAE 30W oil.
In f_eezing weather, oil will thicken, making it
necessary to thin bar and chain oil with a small
amount of Diesel Fuel #1 or Kerosene. Bar and
chain lubricantmust be freeflowingfortheoilsystem
to pump enough oil for adequate lubrication,
USE:THE FO'LLowING:
30°F or above -- Lubricant.-- undiluted.
30°F - 0°F -- 95% lubricant to 5% Diesel
Fuel # 1 or Kerosene.
Below 0 ° F -* 90% lubricant to t0%'Diesel

ADJUSTING THE AUTOMATIC OILER
The adjustlng screw k)catadat the b(_:)m of the
saw on the crankcase next to the bar clamp can
be adjusted with the screwdriver end of the
scronch provided with your saw.
a. To increase the - oil flow, turn the adjusting
screw counterclockwise 4b,,_,
b. Todecreasa the oil _flow, turn the adjusting
screw clockwise_'-'jk .
NOTE: The eutomatic oiler can delivermoreoilthan
is required during certaintypes of cutting such as
pruningor debranching whichrequirethesawtobe
operated at a high RPM for a long time period. To
avoid runningout ofchain oilbefore_running out of
'_el, Check the=oil tank:pedodicaUy. Be sure to
readjustthe oiler before returning to types of cutting
that requiregreater lubrication.
IMPORTANT POINTS TO REMEM3ER
a. Prime the oil pump on a new saw or a saw that
has been unused for an extended period of
time. Pump the manual oiler slowlyseveral times.
Startthe engine andallo_vthe chaintorun. Stop the
engine and check for an even flow Of oil on the
chain. Repeat this procedure untiloil is visible on
the chain.
b. Fill the oil tank each time you refill the fuel
tank to ensure there wilt be stJfficientoil for the
chain whenever you startand runthe saw.
c. The saw will use about 1/2 tank of chain oil for
each tank of fuel mixture. If less oil is used,
check for a pluggedoilhole in the guide bar.
d- it is normal tor a small amount of oil to appear
under the saw after the engine stops. This is
due to oil drainingfrom the bar and chainwhen
not in use.
