Why is my Worx JawSaw WG320 bar/chain overheating?
- TTina RossJul 26, 2025
The bar or chain may be overheating due to several reasons: the battery is out of charge (charge the battery pack), the chain is too tight or needs lubrication (refer to the Adjusting the chain tension and LUBRICATION sections), the chain tension is set incorrectly (refer to the Adjusting the chain tension section), or the chain is installed backward (refer to the CHANGING THE GUIDE BAR AND CHAIN section). Also, the chain might need replacement (refer to sections for CHANGING THE GUIDE BAR AND CHAIN). Note that excessive tension leads to excessive wear.
