For bars over 42″ or that need extra lubrication. Oil is injected in to the groove at the working end of the saw bar. Flow is controlled by a valve on the tank and oil is delivered by gravity. The Auxiliary Oiler Kit will extend saw bar life, provides for cooler cutting and prevents early bar wear. For non double end bars, two holes must be drilled in saw bar tip. Newer saws with better oiling systems may not require additional lubrication.
Oiler line is 24″ long.

John Loud (verified owner) –
Oiler works great in terms of delivering oil. It makes a big difference in terms of chain operating temperature and friction. The oiler on the Stihl MS880 is not sufficient for a 48-inch bar! Two needed improvements. 1. Add a hose clamp to hold the flexible hose onto the bar hose bib – it slides off easily once it gets oily. This happened a few times. 2. Add a locking pin to hold the tank onto the vertical mast. It vibrated up and fell into a running chain. The chain cut up the tank and messed up a couple of chain teeth where it hit the metal bracket.
