OPERATION
Lubrication
Saw chain is automatically lubricated when the tool is in
operation. Check the amount of remaining oil in the oil
tank periodically.
To refill the tank, lay the chain saw on its side and
remove the oil tank cap. The proper amount of oil is 200
ml. After refilling the tank, make sure that the oil tank
cap is tightened securely.

the filler neck. The oil delivery may otherwise be
impaired.
