Adjusting Oil Flow Rate
Never ll the oil reservoir or adjust the oiler with the engine running.
An increase in bar oil ow rate will speed oil consumption, requiring more frequent checks on the oil
reservoir. To ensure sucient lubrication, it may be necessary to check the oil level more frequently than at
fuel tank rells. The guide bar and chain are lubricated automatically by a pump that operates whenever
the chain rotates. The pump is set at the factory to deliver a minimum ow rate, but it can be adjusted in the
eld. A temporary increase in oil ow is often desirable when cutting hardwood.
Adjust the pump as follows:
1. Stop the engine and make sure the stop switch is in the OFF position.
2. Place the unit on its side with the sprocket side and chain brake assembly facing up.
3. With a screwdriver, push in on the oil ow rate adjusting screw and turn in the desired
direction: Clockwise-decrease lubrication / Counter clockwise-increase lubrication.
