Guide Bar Maintenance (Fig . 22)
The bar should be cleaned every day of use
and checked for wear and damage. 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:
Wear inside the bar rails which permits the
•
chain to lay over sideways.
Bent guide bar.
•
Cracked or broken rails.
•
Spread rails.
•
The guide bar has a sprocket at its tip. The sprocket must be lubricated weekly with a grease
syringe to extend the guide-bar life. Use a grease syringe to lubricate weekly with chain oil
by means of the lubricating hole. Turn the guide bar and check that the lubrication holes and
chain groove are free from impurities.
