G. BAR AND CHAIN OIL

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,

--Lack of oil will quickly ruin the bar and chain.

--Too little oil will cause overheating shown by smoke coming from the chain and/or discoloration of the guide bar rails.

Use Sears Bar and Chain Lubricant #71-36554or clean SAE 30W oil.

In freezing 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 oil must be free flowing for the oil system to pump enough oil .for adequate lubrication.

3.IMPORTANT POINTS TO REMEMBER

a.Fill the oil tank each time you refill the fuel tank to ensure there wilt be sufficient oi! for

the chain whenever you start and run the

saw.

b.The saw will use about 112 tank of chain oil for each tank of fuel mixture. If tess oil is used, check for a plugged oil hole in the

guide

bar.

;

C. It is normal

for a small amount

of oil to ap-

pear

under the saw after the engine stops.

This

is due

to oil draining from

the bar and

chain when not in use.
