GUIDE BAR MAINTENANCE
When the guide bar shows signs of wear, disassemble
it from the chain saw power head and reverse it for
reassembly (Fig.P1), in which case it will distribute the
wear for maximum bar life.
The bar should be cleaned (including bar rails (P-1) and
lubricating hole (P-2) every day of use and checked
for wear and damage (Fig. P2). Feathering or burring of
the bar rails is a normal process of bar wear. Such faults
should be smoothed with a file as soon as they occur. A
bar with any of the following faults should be replaced.
