Ell BAR AND CHAIN OIL
• The guide bar and cutting chain require con-
tinuous lubrication in order to remain in
operating condition.
--Lack of oil will quickly ruin the bar and
chain.
--Too little oil will cause overheating shown
by smoke coming from the chain and/or
discoloration of the guide bar raits.

,purpose.
