Preparing for Use
Checking the Front Hand-

Filling the Bar and
Chain Oil Reservoir
IMPORTANT: Bar and chain oil prevents
premature wear. Never operate the
chainsaw if oil is not visible in the
inspection window. Check oil level
frequently and fill as needed.
Bar and chain oil is required to properly
lubricate the guide bar and saw chain. The
chainsaw is equipped with an automatic oiler
that deposits oil on the bar and chain when
running, keeping them properly lubricated. Use
®
Oregon bar and chain oil for best results. It is
specially designed to provide low friction and
faster cuts. NEVER use oil or other lubricants
that have not been specifically designed for use
on the bar and chain. This can lead to a clogged
oil system which may cause premature wear of
the bar and chain.
