I know all these saws leak some oil and mine has done so from day one, but now I'm getting much more oil than before. I have to store my saw vertically and I used to get away with just putting a grocery bag over the head to prevent a mess. Now though, so much oil is dripping down that it comes down the shaft and gets into the handle and the motor. Looking at the parts diagram, all I see is an O-ring for the oil cap and a gasket for the oil reservoir. I'll plan to replace both of those, but is there anything else I should look at?
