Chainsaw Oil FAQs
The most suitable lubricant to keep your chainsaw working at optimum level is a dedicated chainsaw oil. Chainsaw oils are heavy duty lubricants which don’t dry out or get washed off by rain. Rock Oil Groundsman is a high quality oil that is designed to stick to the bar and chain, even at hot and cold temperatures. This means your chainsaw is experience less wear, and rust will be prevented.
Although other oils may be used in an emergency, it is always preferable to utilise a specialist chainsaw bar oil such as Rock Oil Groundsman. Other oils may not adhere well to the chain at high speeds and therefore will not lubricate effectively and could needlessly damage your chainsaw.
No, don’t use WD-40 as chain oil. WD-40 is a water displacer and light lubricant, not chain oil. It’s too thin and will blow off the chain in an instant, leaving your chainsaw un-lubricated. You can use WD-40 to clean your chain, but always follow it with some decent chain oil such as Rock Oil Groundsman.
For your 2-stroke chainsaw engine, you’ll be needing a top-rate 2-stroke engine oil suitable for air-cooled engines. Try to obtain the oils with JASO FD or ISO-L-EGD specifications. That is not like bar and chain oil where you’re supposed to use Rock Oil Groundsman or other qualified chainsaw oil.
In an emergency, you can use vegetable oil or motor oil, although they are not suitable. Vegetable oil will break down rapidly and motor oil does not have the right sticking properties. Replace as soon as possible with a proper chainsaw oil like Rock Oil Groundsman to maintain your chainsaw in a high level of working order.
Without using bar oil, your chainsaw bar and chain will heat up due to friction very quickly. This will result in quick wear, warping of the bar, chain dulling, and even dangerous conditions such as chain breakage. Always have your oil reservoir full of quality chainsaw oil such as Rock Oil Groundsman when operating your chainsaw.
Although engine oil from motor vehicles can be substituted temporarily, it is not the best for chainsaw application. Engine oil lacks the tackiness to adhere to the chain when running at high speeds. For proper protection and performance, utilise a proper chainsaw oil such as Rock Oil Groundsman.
Pre seasoning a new chain by soaking it in oil prior to use is not mandatory but is worthwhile. A short immersion in Rock Oil Groundsman will provide initial lubrication and guard against dry running on first engagement. Remove excess oil by draining before fitting the chain.
You need to clean your chainsaw chain after a day’s use or whenever it gets noticeably dirty and clogged up with sap and débris. Daily brushing and occasional deeper cleaning with the correct solvents will keep your chain in a smooth-running state. Always apply fresh Rock Oil Groundsman afterwards.
The majority of chainsaws self-oil the chain when in operation, if the reservoir is full of oil. Make a check before use and top up as required with Rock Oil Groundsman. In the absence of the self-feed of oil to the chain, apply every 10-15 minutes of usage, or when the chain appears dry.
