Chain oil not coming onto the bar ??

[Al Slitter]

Hello my saw has been down for 2 months now waiting for parts from China.

I got the parts and assembled it and tested it out and it worked fine, that is prior to this the saw would output a lot of oil through the chain saw bar.

This is not happening now, oil is coming out of the oiler on the chain saw housing but I cannot see any oil of consequences on the bar.

I checked the bar oil hole and it was fine I have set the oil quantity screw to high but no difference.

 

A few thoughts please.

 

 

 

Thank you in advance.

What oil do you use? 

Have you tried changing to another bar?

If you run it without a chain on, with it tilted down does oil fill the groove in the bar? Does the hole on the bar align with the oiler port?

Does your wallet stretch to a non Chinese saw ?

I just assumed the OP wasn't in this for profit and just wanted a chainsaw to cut firewood 🤷🏼‍♂️

Get some thinner oil for the winter, put a drop of petrol in with yours to thin it and see if it comes through then. Drop sopme food colouring in it and see if it colours the bar at all.

If the saw has a shouldered bar stud make sure it hasn't come unscrewed slightly, that will cause the bar to leak oil down the back of the bar instead of through the oil hole.

Is the oil pump slit lined up with the bar hole?
Have you changed bar?
Have you tried removing bar and running machine to see if oil is pumping?

What saw is it? might shed more light on the situation.
