56V LITHIUM-ION CORDLESS CHAIN SAW 43
Depth Gauge Clearance
1. The depth gauge should be
maintained at a clearance of
0.6 mm, as shown in Fig. 36 .
Use a depth gauge tool (available
separately) for checking the depth
gauge clearances.
2. Every time the chain is led, check
the depth gauge clearance.
Use a at le and a depth gauge jointer
(both available separately) to lower all
gauges uniformly (Fig. 37). Depth gauge
jointers are available in 0.5mm-0.9mm.
Use a 0.6 mm depth gauge jointer.
Depth gauges must be adjusted with the
at le in the same direction the adjoining
cutter was led with the round le. Use
care not to contact the cutter face with
the at le when adjusting depth gauges.
GUIDE BAR MAINTENANCE
When the guide bar shows signs of wear, reverse it on the saw to distribute the wear
for maximum bar life. The bar should be cleaned every day of use and checked for
wear and damage. Feathering or burring of the bar rails is a normal process of bar
wear. Such faults should be smoothed with a le as soon as they occur. A bar with any
of the following faults should be replaced.
Wear inside the bar rails which permits the chain to lay over sideways.
Bent guide bar.
Cracked or broken rails.
Spread rails.
