Husqvarna 268 oiler adjustment

[alabamatriker]

New to me 268 non xp. It is oiling but dosent seem enough. Bar tip is getting hot and not slinging off chain very well. Does the 268 have an adjustable oiler? If so where do you adjust it?

The 268 has a 4 position screw adjustment to regulate oil volume. Remove the clutch cover. The adjustment screw is flush with the pump around the 10 o'clock position behind the clutch hub. You may need to clean the gunk before it becomes visible. There are 1-4 numbers cast into the pump around the slotted screw. One is least flow, four is max flow. If the pump is surface is corroded it may be difficult to read the numbers.
