Maintaining the guide bar
1. Remove any sawdust from the guide bar, including the groove.
Oil and sawdust combine and emit a burning smell during operation if the blade is
not regularly cleaned.
2. Make sure that the oil port is not clogged. Grease the nose sprocket at the tip of the
guide bar.
3. Check for oil leakage and loose fastenings, especially those securing the handles
and the guide bar.
4.
Reverse the guide bar every 8 working hours to ensure uniform wear. Check the
guide rails frequently and if necessary remove burrs and square up the rails using a
flat file.
Chain Sharpening
Chain File: 3.96mm (5/32”)
Chain Pitch: 9.53mm (3/8”)
Chain Gauge: 1.3mm (0.050”)
Sharpen the chain regularly to maintain
optimum performance of the saw. Signs of a
dull chain are:
• The sawdust becomes powder-like
• Extra force is required to execute a cut
• The cut does not track in a straight line
• Increased vibration
Sharpen each cutter using a round 3.96mm (5/32”) chain file. Keep the file level with
the top plate of the tooth. Always use outward strokes and maintain a 30° angle
between the chain and file. After sharpening, the cutters must all have the same width
and length.
After every 3–4 uses get an authorised repair centre to professionally sharpen your
chain. They have the special tools necessary to ensure the correct cutting angles and
depths.
