The t540xp Thread.

My bar has not been oiled since day one.

The oiler works perfectly, the bar is clean, i assume the hole lines up but no oil travels along the bar.

 

It's as if the hole doesn't line up because oil does leak out around the bar.

 

I've had the bar off so many times to clean it I'm fed up.

 

Any suggestions?

I still can't get the damn oil to travel along the bar!

I'm despairing. On the plus side, I'm saving oil.

Could you post a couple of photos showing the bar and the saw apart, then on with no side casing, on with side casing?

Will do.

Could it be that the hole of your bar is obstructed by the middle of the bar?

On my 536 I drilled the middle of the bar out to let the oil pass freely to the drive link rail.

Have you turned the oiler up?
