The automatic chain oiler is designed to continuously lubricate the chain and the guide bar while
the chainsaw is running. This lubrication is an important factor in minimizing wear and tear on
components as is commonly found in chainsaws. By utilizing the fluid from the supply circuit and
sending the fluid through a metering valve, the fluid is then directed to the chain and guide in the
quantity required. By adjusting the metering screw, fluid can be applied at a greater or lesser
volume, depending on the usage of the chainsaw.
IMPORTANT: Check the operation of the automatic oiler frequently.
WARNING: Disconnect the hydraulic source! Severe injury can
occur if the power is on and the saw starts running accidentally!
Use Adjustable oiler plug with Key style grip for simple flow adjustment. Shown in Figure 2.
Turn the screw counterclockwise to increase the oil flow. To decrease the flow, turn the screw
clockwise. Make adjustments by turning no more than ½ turn. Run the saw at full speed and
watch the end of the saw. If a fine mist appears at the end while running, then it is adjusted
properly. If there is no visible mist, make another adjustment counterclockwise.
If adjusting an older unit and change in flow occurs while running, clean the oil outlet hole
under the end of the chain bar. It may have become clogged with debris.
