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 18):This causes chain clatter and rivet popping. Saw

will not cut st_ight. 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.
