Depth Gauge Clearance
• The depth gauge should be maintained at a clear-
ance of .025". Use a depth gauge tool for checking
the depth gauge clearances.
• Every time the chain is filed, check the depth gauge
clearance.
Depth Gauge Jointer
Use a flat file and a depth gauge jointer to lower all
gauges uniformly. Depth gauge jointers are available
in 0.02" to .035" Use a .025" depth gauge jointer.
After lowering each depth gauge, restore original
shape by rounding the front. Be careful not to damage
adjoining drive links with the
edge of the file.
Depth gauges must be ad-
justed with the flat file in the
same direction the adjoin-
ing cutter was filed with the
round file. Use care not to
contact cutter face with flat
file when adjusting depth
gauges.
Guide Bar Maintenance
When the guide bar shows signs of wear, flip the
guide bar from bottom to top on the saw to distrib-
ute the wear for maximum bar life. 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 re-
placed.
• Wear inside the bar rails
which permits the chain to
lay over sideways.
• Bent guide bar.
• Cracked or broken rails.
• Spread rails.
Lubricate guide bars with a sprocket at their tip
weekly. Using a grease syringe, lubricate weekly in
the lubricating hole. Turn the guide bar and check
that the lubrication holes and bar rails are free from
impurities.
WARNING
