The chain won't stay on. I bought it used and besides the chain not staying on everything else is ok. I am wondering if there is a part missing that keeps the chain on better? As it is the way to hold it on are the two nuts that are outside the guard. In other words you put the guard over the bar then put the two nuts on and tighten them down. So the same nuts that hold the guard also hold the chain bar in place. So after a few minutes of usage the chain comes loose. thanks dave

My sons chain won't stay on and it falls off when

Being a physical problem and lacking any clues about the bike we'll need you to observe and judge what is really happening to make the chain fall off. Use a search engine for "bicycle chain falls off" to get some ideas and guidance on identifying the dysfunction, then the fix(es).

Just bought a Worx 16"

Does the chain stay tight. If not it will fall off. Make sure the bar is fitting snugly against the body of the saw and that the chain is fitting in the drive sprocket properly. There should be a tensioner screw to help tighten the chain. Make sure that is secure. Otherwise take it back for refund or replacement.

I have a ryobi expand it pruning attachment. How much oil does it require to lubricate the chain? What kind of oil? thanks

just fill up the bar oil tank , no actual qty as such

use chainsaw bar oil - its bio-degradable and has a very slight stickyness to it that makes it stay around on chain and bar

motor oil will not stay put on chain and bar - besides not

Ceiling fan stuck on low

in order for the remote control to work properly the fan has to be on its highest speed using the pull chain ... after setting the pull chain in the proper position you can tie up the chain or remove it to prevent others from changing the setting .. the remote will control the speed from then on ..
