Checking the chain lubrication
Never work with the chain saw without sufcient chain lubri-ca-
tion. Otherwise the service life of the chain and guide bar will
be reduced.
Before starting work check the oil level in the tank and the oil
feed.
Check the oil feed rate as described below:
Start the chain saw (see "Starting the engine”).
Hold the running chain saw approx. 6" (15 cm) above a trunk
or the ground (use an appropriate base).
If the lubrication is sufcient, you will see a light oil trace be-
cause oil will be ung off the sawing device. Pay attention to the
direction the wind is blowing and avoid unnecessary exposure
to the oil spray!
Note:
After the saw has been turned off it is normal for residual chain
oil to drip from the oil feed system, the guide bar and the chain
for a time. This does not constitute a defect!
Place the saw on a suitable surface.

To ensure troublefree operation of the oil pump the oil guide
groove at the crankcase (1) and the oil inlet bore in the guide
bar (2) must be cleaned regularly.
