Adjusting the chain lubrication
You can adjust the oil pump feed rate with the adjusting
screw (1). The adjusting screw is on the bottom side of the
housing.
The oil pump comes factory-set to a minimum feed rate. You
can set the chain oil feed rate to minimum and maximum
feed rate.
To adjust the supply rate, use a small screwdriver to turn the
