NOTE:Donotusedirty,usedorotherwisecontam- inated oils. Damage may occur to the bar or chain.

Carefully pour the bar and chain oil into the tank.

Check and fill the oil tank when battery is recharged, or as needed.

Depress the oil tank cap several times to pump the oil to the chain before starting the saw.

Depress the oil tank cap every 20-30 seconds while cutting to keep the chain lubricated.

NOTE: It is normal for lubricant to seep from the saw when not in use. To prevent seepage, empty the oil tank after each use. When storing the unit for a long period of time (three months or longer) be sure the chain is lightly lubricated; this will prevent rust on the chain and bar sprocket.
