level of the oil in the chainsaw. If the oil
level is less than a quarter full, unplug the
chainsaw and refill with the proper oil.

oil for proper chain and bar lubrication. As
a temporary substitute, a non-detergent
SAE30 weight motor oil can be used.The
use of a vegetable based bar and chain
oil is recommended when pruning trees.
Mineral oil is not recommended because
it may harm trees. Never use waste oil
or very thick oil. These may damage
your chainsaw.
