Is the button there by the handle for manual oiling of the chain? I never heard of a Power Lite. Also was curious about the Remington bar? -Goofy-

I had an old one that you had to manually push a button located in that same area. I don't recall the name, I got it at a garage sale many years ago. It was my first ever chain saw. We are told not to judge all Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but are told to judge all gunowners by the actions of a few.
