Can't really comment without seeing the model but they are both companies which manufacture out of Canada.
The oil button near the handle is a pump action set up, just like an old oil can. If you fill the oil reservoir and remove the bar and chain, give the button a push or two and you'll see the oil squirt out. I have never run one but I am trying to sort out an old Pioneer and it has the old oil pump button. Throws out a bit of oil too. Probably every five seconds or so I would guess depending on what your were cutting too.
