Use bar and chain oil (bar oil is SAE 30 with an addative to make stick to the bar and chain) available at home centers and hardwares. Excerpt from a Remington OM follows: “FILLING OIL TANK 1. Remove oil cap. 2. Fill oil tank with SAE #30 motor oil. Note: For temperatures below 30°F, use SAE #10 oil. For temperatures above 75°F, use SAE #40 oil. 3. Replace oil cap at once. Tighten oil cap firmly for good seal. This will avoid oil seepage from tank. 4. Wipe off excess oil. Note: It is normal for oil to seep when saw is not in use. Empty oil tank after each use to prevent seepage.”
