Depth-Gauge Clearance
1. The depth gauge should be
maintained at a clearance of 0.025
in. (0.6 mm), as shown in Fig. 37.
Use a depth-gauge tool (available
separately) to check the depth-
gauge clearances.
2. Check the depth-gauge clearance
every time the chain is filed. Use a
flat file and a depth-gauge jointer
(both available separately) to lower
all gauges uniformly (Fig. 38).
Depth-gauge jointers are available
from 0.020 in. to 0.035 in. (0.5 mm
to 0.9 mm). Use a 0.025 in. (0.6
mm) depth-gauge jointer.
3. Depth-gauges must be adjusted
with the flat file in the same
direction the adjoining cutter was
filed with the round file. Use care not to contact the cutter face with the flat file
when adjusting depth-gauges.
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. 39),
in which case it will distribute the wear for
maximum bar life.
