■CHECKING OIL SUPPLY
•After starting the engine, run the chain at medium speed and see if chain oil is scattered off as shown in the figure.

NOTE
The oil reservoir has a capacity sufficient to provide about 40 minutes of cutting time (when set to deliver the minimum flow rate, or about as long as you'll get from a tank of fuel). Be sure to refill the oil tank every time when refueling the saw.
