NOTE: Do not use dirty, used, or otherwise
contaminated oils. Damage may occur to the
bar or chain.
 Carefully pour the bar and chain oil into the tank.
 Check and fill the oil tank when battery is
recharged, or as needed.
 Depress the oil tank cap several times to pump
the oil to the chain before starting the saw.
 Depress the oil tank cap every 20-30 seconds
while cutting to keep the chain lubricated.
NOTE: It is normal for lubricant to seep from the
saw when not in use. To prevent seepage, empty
the oil tank after each use. When storing the unit
for a long period of time (three months or longer) be
sure the chain is lightly lubricated; this will prevent
rust on the chain and bar sprocket.
