    How
    Yes, buy a small thing of it just to see if you like it. I usually run Canola all the time, I just happen to have a couple of big jugs of veggie oil I use when I'm milling, the veggie oil I use in the auxiliary oiler when milling.

    When I got back to the gate the lock was froze, no De-Icer in the Rhino so I grabbed the Backwoods Off, I gave it a few sprays & the damm lock worked.

    I will have De-Icer in the Rhino tomorrow.

    Good thinking. A little hand sanitizer (which I keep handy, and use before lunch, in the woods) and a lighter work well too. Stays lit for a little while...

    They have the same viscosity as bar oil, will stay in the bar and oil your bar and chain just like the bar oil you buy. Ive been using Canola Oil for a little over a year now and love it. I buy it at a local discount scratch and dent grocery store. Much better price and also your not introducing a harsh oil to the environment. I believe parts of Europe actually banned regular bar oil and all they use is Veggie or Canola oil. Not that I'm one to support more laws but I do like to save money and have less impact on the ground I get my firewood from.
