I just purchased a Craftsman 16 In. electric chain saw.
Question: It does not say what kind of oil to put in for lubricating the
chain?????
It did not come with a sample of oil.
Can I use regular motor oil??


Buy chainsaw bar oil at Walmart for the best
price. A gallon is about $5 and should last a
long time or buy a quart for about $1.50.

You can use regular motor oil but you have to mix
in one of the heavy oils used for old engines,
e.g. Motor Honey. Mix ratio should be around 4 oz
of heavy oil to a quart of motor oil. Much easier
to just buy the stuff from Walmart.
