Checking the chain lubrication

Never work with the chain saw without sufficient chain lubrication. Otherwise the service life of the chain and guide bar will be reduced.

Before starting work check the oil level in the tank and the oil feed.

Check the oil feed rate as described below:

Start the chain saw (see ”Starting the engine”).

Hold the running chain saw approx. 6" (15 cm) above a trunk or the ground (use an appropriate base).

If the lubrication is sufficient, you will see a light oil trace because oil will be flung off the sawing device. Pay attention to the direction the wind is blowing and avoid unnecessary exposure to the oil spray!

Note:

After the saw has been turned off it is normal for residual chain oil to drip from the oil feed system, the guide bar and the chain for a time. This does not constitute a defect!

Place the saw on a suitable surface.
