Guide Bar Maintenance
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 that permits the saw
•
chain to lay over sideways.
Bent guide bar.
•
Cracked or broken rails.
•
Spread rails.
•
In addition, 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 (Fig.
21) on each side of the bar. Turn the guide bar and check that the lubrication holes and chain
groove are free from impurities.
When the guide bar shows signs of wear, reverse it on the saw to distribute the wear for
maximum bar life.
a. Remove the guide bar and chain from the pruning saw, following the section "Replacing the
Bar and Chain".
b. Turn the guide bar over. The bottom of the bar will be on the top (Fig. 21).
c. Adjust the chain tension, following the section "Adjusting the Chain Tension".
