stihl polesaw oiler

[Stephen Blair]

i have 2 pole saw heads, 1 oils but stops turning when the revs get too much, something must be worn:confused1: and another head that works great but oiler has packed in.

advice on making 1 out the 2 please:001_cool:

We have a problem with ours. We have it stored so it hangs off the chain catcher and oil tank. It leaks when stored like it but also leaks when on the floor too.

Have you tried tightening the screw holding the rim sprocket on? Mine wouldn't run properly until that was tightened.

Have you checked the gauze oil filter

A toolstore isn't complete without a knackered, old polesaw sat redundant, manacled to a wall, waiting for another polesaw to be cannibalised so it might live again!

This man knows what hes talking about.guarantee this iis your problem.

[Stephen Blair]

Yes, checked that. I have had oilers replaced before but I am getting tight in my aging years lol

Dean got my last collection of Frankestein pole saws !!

I never tried tightening anything up, I thought I would ask in here first. I have a tendancy to make things worse when I try and fix stuff:(

we've got about 6 stihl polesaw heads

it seems common for oilers to stop working

This may be something you've hit on

I'll check with my fitter- he has had a look at them previous

I have a couple of pole saws with that problem! Where is the gauze oil filter, is at the bottom of the oil tank?

I would say it's worth checking to see if the pump blocks up like it does on the 020's.
