At the bottom of the saw you should find the oil pump. There will be a flat head screw that adjusts it. Be sure that you are using a good quality bar oil and not a motor oil. Adjust it in small increments. You can easily burn the bar and chain if it doesn't get enough bar oil.

Can i upsize my chain from a 14 inch to a 16 inch i have a 14 inch mcculloch and i want to put a 16 inch bar and chain on it. it is a 35 cc engine

There will be a 16" option, however things to remember, you will have a drop in power, so you need to keep the chain sharp, the oiling system will probably on its limit.

Oil not feeding to the chain guide on the electric ryobi chain saw

Remove the cover on the right hand side of the saw and remove the bar and chain. Clean the oil port holes in the bar and the body of the saw. They get clogged with sawdust and chips. Also clean the groove in the bar and the sprocket at the end of the bar. Always use proper chainsaw bar oil.

Bought a Ryobi cs214 at a pawn shop. There is no oil in the holder for smooth running of the machine. Would like to know what kind of oil does the Ryobi CS214 takes.

Just fill the tank with regular bar/chain oil available at home centers, hardware stores, and saw dealers. Don't use old used motor oil or similar. Hope this helps!

My 18 Inch chain saw will not keep oiling the Chain, I had it worked on and He said it was plugged. How do you unplug it with out taking it all apart. Is there a spot to blow air through. the Preacher..

Remove the chain bar and look just below the bolts holding it in place. You'll see a small hole where the chain bar oil pump pushes out oil. Make sure this hole is clear then run the saw without the bar on.
Be CAREFUL of fingers!
You should see oil coming out of that hole. If not, you may need more serious work done with the saw (chain bar pump replacement).

Where are the oiling ponts to the bar to the ryobi 16 inch petrol chainsaw?

Hi
It's Lisa?
On an electric chainsaw there usually aren't what you would call oiling points.Somewhere,probably on the rear or one side of the case will be a bulb.It's also the screw on cap for the oil reservoir.
You fill that up with chainsaw bar oil,and as you use the saw every few minutes push the bulb down 2-3 times and it applies oil to the chain and gear in the case.The chain transfers the oil to the bar.
If this helps,would you rate my post please?
Thanks Bob
By the way,if you give me your model number I can look for a manual somewhere.No promises though,Ryobi likes to sell their manuals rather than download them.

I bought a ryobi 14 inch electric chainsaw. Is

Use regular bar/chain oil available from home centers, hardware stores, and saw shops. Always keep the chain properly sharpened and tensioned so that you don't have to force the chain into the cut which causes motor overheating. If you need to make an 'under' cut, do so with the top of the bar--don't run the saw upside down. Good luck!
