Lubricant for my new chainsaw?

I received a Craftsman 16"/36cc chainsaw for Xmas and decided to open the box and get it ready for use. In reading the manual it says to use Craftsman SAE 30 oil unfortunately I don't have that at hand. Can I substitute Pennzoil 10W-30 until I get the Craftsman SAE 30?

any manufacturers 30 weight oil will do.try yours and to test,run saw at full throttle pointing at a clean white sheet/wall from about a foot away,. small droplets of oil should be transfered onto it from the moving chain.if no spray pattern then your oils to thick whitch would shortly wreck both chain and bar.
