VIDEOClick to see full answer. Consequently, how does the oiler work on a chainsaw?Specially engineered chainsaw bar oil goes into the oil reservoir. As you throttle up, a worm drive engages the pump to send oil through a port that releases onto the bar. As the chain moves across the bar, it distributes the oil across the surface, reducing the friction and the heat that occurs when cutting.One may also ask, why is my Husqvarna chainsaw not oiling? The first clue that the oil line on the Husqvarna chain saw may be clogged is when there’s little to no lubrication on the chain. The chain may run hotter than normal without the necessary oil to cool it. Symptoms of a hot chain include smoking during cutting and discoloration of the guide bar. Furthermore, how do you adjust a chainsaw Oiler? Turn the chainsaw off to adjust the oiler. Insert a small flat-head screwdriver into the oil adjustment screw on the underside of the chainsaw. Turn the screw clockwise to increase oil flow or counterclockwise to decrease the oil flow.Why does my chainsaw leak oil when not in use?An overfilled reservoir can often leak oil when the saw is turned on. Check this and siphon some off if it looks excessively high. If the oil is running out via the delivery line to the bar then there is a chance that the tank vent is plugged up. If so, the chain may be running ‘dry’ during operation.
