BAR MAINTENANCE (Fig. 26)
To avoid asymmetrical wear on the bar, make sure
it is turned over periodically.
To keep the bar in perfect working order, proceed
as follows:
– grease the bearings on the nose sprocket (if
present) with the syringe;
– Clean the bar groove with the scraper (not in-
cluded);
– clean the lubrication holes;
– with a flat file, remove burr from the edges and
level off the guides.
Replace the bar whenever:
– the groove is not as deep as the height of the
drive links (which must never touch the bottom);
– the inside of the guide is worn enough to make
the chain lean to one side.

– Unscrew the two nuts, remove the guard and re-
move the chain and rod.
