Echo CS-356 leaks bar oil

[5030]

Not gonna waste my time. One, it's messy to do that and two, what leaks out gets caught in an old towel that makes good fire starter for my burn pile.

My CS-400 stays dry. It sits in a case, but it's always dry.

My 400 doesn't leak that much either. Case is relatively dry also.

Now my 800P, totally different story.

The 490 is kinda middle of the road on leakage.

I looked into it also and sometimes you get 1 that doesn't leak but generally, it's a part of life owning a saw

Bar oil isn't that expensive anyway, even the premium stuff. Like I said, I keep my saws on discarded bathroom towels and when they become saturated, they go in the burn pile. Make good accelerant.
