WHAT KIND OF OIL DO I USE ON THE CHAIN SAW? HOW MUCH OIL WILL THE CHAIN SAW NEED? Any brand bar and chain oil will do. There is a max line that the oil reservoir can be filled to. Do not fill the reservoir beyond this point. For best results ensure that you are using a winter grade bar and chain oil in the winter or cold climates. In warmer climates or in the summer, a summer grade bar and chain oil is recommended. Never store your chainsaw with oil still in the reservoir.
