No I never bothered at all. The chain would stay well clean enough naturally.
I never really kept proper track but it was about every 3-4 tanks of fuel I would put a squirt into the oiler, just with a normal oil can, took 2 minutes if that to pump in.
I used various oils... used engine oil was great, EP80/90 sounds like a good idea but is too thick to flow properly, dexron2 worked great and I suspect is what actual scottoil is for 5x the price, chainsaw oil (bar oil) is also brilliant but I used to thin that 5050 with old engine oil.
Overall I'd say get the cheapest ATF you can find and use that.
