We got our new Makita 9010 saw yesterday today's the first time I ve started it with in seconds I had chain oil pouring everywhere have tried to turn flow down but not sure how far to go and if I turn it right down will the oil flow stop altogether? Never had a saw with adjustable oil flow before ! Thanks

I would not have thought it would shut off completely if done up , I would assume this would be the minimum output , does the handbook indicate different settings for different length bars ??

...I ve started it with in seconds I had chain oil pouring everywhere...

 

What do you mean by pouring everywhere? Is it pouring out from parts other than the hole where it should pour out from.

Was the correct bar and chain installed?

It's a big saw that 'houses' big bars and chains. Big saws use lots of oil to lube those long bars.

Its pouring out of correct hole when running on a few revs but its not getting down bar just running on to floor. Correct bar installed by dealer.

Is the bar fitted properly? I mean flush with the saw?

Does the hole in the bar correspond with the oiling hole of the saw?

Right tried saw tonight cut 4 big pieces of wood put it down on floor and on tick over it was pumping a pool of chain oil out from under the chain cover, we ve turned the flow down a lot but don't want to reduce it more because can see the bar is getting hot.I ve checked the bar and its the right bar.

Sounds like you have the wrong bar possibly ? The oil hole outlet not in line with the hole in the bar ? Or the pump outlet connection not secured properly .....?

Surely it should not be leaking at tickover? Most saws take their oil pump drive from the clutch drum. which only rotates when the clutch engages.

 

Of course, it could be that the Makita is different.

I ve never had a saw pump oil on tick over the parts list and part no on bar match it is moving some oil down the chain and bar will have to take it back
