Always sharpen the chain with the professional sharpening tools (not
supplied) or just replace with a new chain.
Bar maintenance
To maximize bar life, the following bar maintenance is recommended.
1. The bar rails that carry the chain should be cleaned before storing the tool
or if the bar or chain appear to be dirty.
2. The rails should be cleaned every time the chain is removed.
3. Turn the bar over, top rail becoming bottom and
bottom rail becoming top, every 5 hours of use.
Cleaning the bar rails
1. Remove chain drive side cover (9) and bar (7) and
chain (6). (see section ASSEMBLY)
2. Using a wire brush, screwdriver or similar tool, clear the residue from the
inner groove of the bar (Fig U).
3. Make sure to clean oil passages thoroughly.
Conditions which require guide bar maintenance
• Saw cuts to one side or at an angle.
• Saw has to be forced through the cut.
• Inadequate supply of oil to the bar and chain.
Check the condition of the guide bar each time the
chain is sharpened. A worn guide bar will damage
the chain and make cutting dicult.
After each use, with unit disconnected from power
source, clean all sawdust from the guide bar and sprocket hole.
When rail top is uneven, use a at le to restore square edges and sides
(Fig V).
Replace the guide bar when the groove is worn, the guide bar is bent or
cracked, or when excess heating or burring of the rails occurs. If replacement
is necessary, use only the guide bar specied for your saw in the repair parts
list or on the decal located on the chainsaw.
