Chain oil

All Husqvarna chainsaws have an automatic chain lubrication system. On some models the oil flow is also adjustable.

Think about the following when you select a chain oil:

The oil tank lasts approximately three battery charges. This applies only if you use the correct chain oil. If the chain oil is too thin, it will not last that long.
Chain oil must show good adherence to the saw chain and also keep its flow quality during warm summer and cold winter weather.
Use an oil of the right grade (suitable viscosity range) to agree with the air temperature. In temperatures below 0°C (32°F) some oils become too thick. This can cause the oil pump to overload and result in damage to the oil pump components.
Use the recommended cutting equipment. A guide bar that is too long will use more chain oil.
Turn to your servicing dealer when you select a chain oil.

WARNING: Do not use waste oil! Waste oil is dangerous to you and the environment. Waste oil also causes damage to the oil pump, the guide bar and the saw chain.

WARNING: If the lubrication of the cutting equipment is not sufficient, it can cause the saw chain to break. This can cause serious injury or death to the operator.

CAUTION:

If you use vegetable based chain oil, clean the groove in the guide bar and saw chain before long-term storage. Otherwise there is a risk of the saw chain oxidizing, which causes the saw chain to become stiff and that the bar tip sprocket gets clogged.
