Care of guide bar (Fig.28)
Uneven bar wear causes most guide bar problems, incorrect sharpening of chain cutter
and depth gauge settings often cause this, when bar wears unevenly, it widens guide bar
groove, this causes chain clatter and rivets popping. Saw will not cut straight, replaces
guide bar if this occurs.
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.

Chain sharpening
Warning! Always ensure that the tool is switched off and the plug is removed from the
power source before making any adjustments or maintenance procedures.
The chain requires sharpening when the chain saw does not cut appropriately.
Warning: Special tools are required to sharpen the saw chain. These guarantee that the
cutting of the chain occurs at the correct angle and the correct depth. We recommend
that you have the saw chain sharpened by a professional or service center.
