If the oil level in the tank does not go down, the reason may be a fault in the oil supply
system: Check chain lubrication, clean the oilways.
Checking Chain Lubrication
Ÿ
The saw chain must always throw off a small amount
of oil
Ÿ
Never operate your saw without chain lubrication. If
the chain runs dry, the whole cutting attachment will
be irretrievably damaged within a very short time.
Always check chain lubrication and the oil level in the
tank before starting work. Every new chain has to be
broken in for about 2 to 3 minutes.After breaking in the chain, check chain tension
and adjust if necessary – see "Checking Chain Tension".
