BAR MAINTENANCE
To maximize bar life, the following bar maintenance is
recommended.
The bar rails that carry the chain should be cleaned
before storing the tool or if the bar or chain appear to
be dirty.
The rails should be cleaned every time the chain is
removed.
Occasional de-burring of the bar rails may be
necessary with a flat file
TO CLEAN THE BAR RAILS
1. Remove chain cover, bar and chain. (see section
ASSEMBLY)
2. Using a wire brush, screwdriver or similar tool,
clear the residue from the inner groove of the bar.
(See Fig. I)
3. Make sure to clean oil passages thoroughly.

CONDITIONS WHICH REQUIRE CHAIN AND
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 difficult.
After each use, remove the battery pack, clean all
sawdust from the guide bar and sprocket hole.
When rail top is uneven, use a flat file to restore
square edges by removing any burrs from the side or
top of the bar.

Square
Worn Groove
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 specified for your
saw in the repair parts list or on the decal located on
the pole saw.
REPLACING BAR & CHAIN
Replace chain when cutters are too worn to sharpen
or when the chain becomes inoperable. Only use
replacement chain noted in this manual.
Inspect guide bar before sharpening chain. A worn
or damaged guide bar is unsafe. A worn or damaged
guide bar will damage chain. It will also make cutting
harder.
SHARPENING SAW CHAIN
WARNING: Remove the battery pack before
servicing. Severe injury or death could
occur from electrical shock or body contact
with moving chain.
Cutting edges on chain are sharp. Use protective
gloves when handling chain.
Keep chain sharp. Your saw will cut faster and more
safely. A dull chain will cause undue sprocket, guide
bar, chain, and motor wear. If you must force chain
into wood and cutting creates only fine sawdust with
few large chips, chain is dull.
Before sharpening, please pay attention of the
following steps:( See Fig. J1)
