How to Change a Chain Oiler Pump on a Remington Gas Chainsaw

The Remington chainsaw is used for residential and commercial use. While using this tool, the blades can become quite hot. In order to keep the blade cool and cutting efficiently, the chainsaw utilizes an oil pump which automatically feeds oil from a special pump onto the saw blade while it is cutting. If the chainsaw bar oiler stops working, it means the oiler pump likely needs to be replaced. Changing the bar oiler pump will take about an hour.
