As the title says, my AK42 looses oil and makes a mess.

There was a small foam strip that came away from where I assume the
lubricator outlet is, but it did not seem to serve any purpose.

Has anyone stripped the oil mpump on one of these?


Most saws do, often the pump is a rotary plunger working on an axial
cam, the oil can leak past the sides of the plunger, from a breather
and simply from residual oil in the outlet. Store it on a newspaper.

If you use OSR as the lubricant and don't intend using it for a while
empty the tank and run a small amount of mineral oil through.
