make this cut. Cut 1/3 through diam-

eter of log. This cut will keep section

from splintering when cut.

2. Make second cut directly above ﬁrst

cut. Cut down to meet ﬁrst cut. This

cut will keep log from pinching guide

ing solvents, carbon tetrachlo-

ride, kerosene, or gasoline

Keep saw body clean. Use a soft cloth damp-

CARE OF GUIDE BAR

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 (see Figure 17). This causes

chain clatter and rivet popping. Saw will not

cut straight. Replace 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.
