and assures a longer service life.
Use bar and chain oil of high quality for this purpose.
Do not use used or reclaimed oil to avoid various oiler
problems.
Use ECHO bar and chain oil.
When ECHO bar and chain oil is not available: Use motor
oil, etc.
Use bar and chain oil of the following grades:
SAE No. 30....in summer
SAE No. 10....in winter or when cutting resinous trees.
