Bar Maintenance
To maximize bar life, the following bar
maintenance is recommended.
The bar rails that carry the chain should be
cleaned before storing the tool or if the bar or
chain appear to be dirty.
The rails should be cleaned every time the
chain is removed.
Turn the bar over, top rail becoming bottom
and bottom rail becoming top, around every 5
hours of use.
To clean the Bar rails:
1. Remove chain cover and bar and chain.
(see section ASSEMBLY)
2. Using a wire brush, screwdriver or similar
tool, clear the residue from the inner
groove of the bar. (See Fig. M)
3. Make sure to clean oil passages
thoroughly
Conditions which require Guide Bar (9)
maintenance:
• Saw cuts to one side or at an angle.
• Saw has to be forced through the cut.
• Inadequate supply of oil to the bar and
chain.
Check the condition of the Guide Bar each
time the chain is sharpened. A worn Guide
Bar will damage the chain and make cutting
difficult.
After each use, with unit disconnected from
power source, clean all sawdust from the
Guide Bar and sprocket hole.
When rail top is uneven, use a flat file to
restore square edges and sides.

Worn Groove Correct Groove
Replace the Guide Bar when the groove is
worn, the Guide Bar is bent or cracked, or
when excess heating or burring of the rails
occurs. If replacement is necessary, use only
the Guide Bar specified for your saw in the
repair parts list or on the decal located
on the chain saw.
Replacing Bar & Chain
Replace chain when cutters are too worn
to sharpen or when chain stops. Only use
replacement chain noted in this manual.
Always include new Drive Sprocket(15) when
replacing chain. This will maintain proper
driving of chain.
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.
Fit the Bar Tensioning Plate (22) catch into the
new bar by tightening the screw clockwise.
The catch protrude (a) must be fitted into the
bar hole. (See Fig. N)

power source before servicing.
Severe injury or death could occur from
electrical shock or body contact with
moving chain.
Cutting edges on chain are sharp. Use
protective gloves when handling chain.
Keep chain sharp. Your saw will cut faster and
