Product Information
Full details
The Bosch Professional Chain Oil (1L) is designed for chainsaw users seeking optimal chain lubrication in all conditions. Its key benefit is extending the lifetime of both the chain and chainsaw through high lubrication and adhesion properties, while also offering a reduced environmental impact. A potential caveat is that its optimized viscosity is for year-round use, which might require checking suitability for extreme temperature applications.

Troubleshooting
Chain not receiving oil
Check the oil reservoir level. Ensure the oil intake port is not blocked by debris. Clean the oiling channels on the chainsaw and guide bar. Verify the oil pump is functioning correctly.
Oil appears too thick or thin
The oil is designed for year-round use. If experiencing extreme temperatures, ensure the chainsaw is operating within its design parameters. Clean any buildup on the chain or bar that might affect oil distribution.
Excessive oil slinging from the chain
This can occur at high chain speeds. Ensure proper chain tension. The oil's adhesion properties should minimize this, but excessive amounts can be slung off. Check for any damage to the guide bar groove.
