Lubrication Flow Adjustment
Lubrication Flow Essentials
The chainsaw lubrication pump has been factory adjusted to suit this unit but may require
fine tuning due to operating conditions.
A high rate of oil flow may reduce wear on the bar, chain and sprocket but it is
recommended the flow should not be adjusted unless absolutely needed.
A reduced rate or no lubrication will cause premature failure of the product which is not
covered by the warranty.
All oil holes, ports, bar guide rails should be cleaned and unit checked after cleaning to
ensure the adjustment is still needed.
Victa recommends only a trained service technician should attempt to adjust the
lubrication flow of the chainsaw.
Adjusting the Lubrication Flow
1. Stop the chainsaw and allow the unit to cool.
2. If more lubrication is required turn the adjustment screw anti-clockwise using the
small screw driver provided.
- If less lubrication is required turn the adjustment screw clockwise.
3. Only slight adjustments 1/4 should be made at each time before testing the product
to check if the adjustment has been sufficent.
