Homelite 350 oiler adjustment

[topgut]

Hi Guys,

I just resurrected a 350 tonight and I am not real happy with the amount of oil its putting out to the chain. I have not yet had to adjust an oiler on my saws and I am hoping someone here can tell me how to make it put out more oil to the chain. It looks like a fairly simple device/adjuster but I'd like a little advice before I try and mess with it.

Thanks and have a great weekend..........J

Gotta love those 350s! The oiler adjustment it the slotted lever you'll see when facing the front of the saw to the left close to the bar. Counter-clockwise turn increases flow. It only swings an arc a bit over 90 degrees if I remember correctly. Always seemed odd that they did away with the adjustable oiler on the later model 360s and that all other '50s didn't have an adjustment.

Thanks Dan,

I'll get to it eventually, still working on the carb adjustments.

Hope your doing well.........John

You're welcome John. My Dad's 350 ignited my interest in Homelite saws, so I have a special respect for these. Hope you get her running soon!
