NOTE:
The condition of the oil passages can be easily checked. If the passages
are clear, the chain will automatically give off a spray of oil within seconds of the
machine starting. This machine is equipped with an automatic oiling system.
> Clear residue from the rails on the guide bar (C6) using a screwdriver, putty knife,
wire brush or other similar tool. This will keep the oil passages open to provide proper
lubrication to the guide bar (C6) and saw chain (C7) (Fig. 59).
> Check the guide bar “rail” for wear: Hold a ruler (straight edge) against the side of
the guide bar and “cutter side plates”. If there is a gap between the ruler and guide
bar the guide bar “rail” is normal. If there is no gap (ruler flush against the side of
the guide bar) the guide bar ‘rail’ is worn and needs to be replaced with a new one
of the same type (Fig. 60).

Clear residue from the rails on the guide bar (D7) using a
screwdriver, putty knife, wire brush or other similar tool.
This will keep the oil passages open to provide proper
lubrication to the guide bar (D7) and saw chain (D6).
Check the guide bar 'rail' for wear: Hold a ruler (straight
edge) against the side of the guide bar and 'cutter side
plates'. If there is a gap between the ruler and guide bar the
guide bar 'rail' is normal. If there is no gap (ruler flush
against the side of the guide bar) the guide bar 'rail' is worn
and needs to be replaced with a new one of the same type.
Turn the guide bar 180° to allow even wear, thereby
extending the life span of the guide bar (D7).
Check the saw chain for possible wear and damages.
Replace it with a new one if required. Experienced user can
sharpen a dull saw chain (see section
“ S a w c ha in
s ha rpening”
below).
Refit the saw chain (D6) and the guide bar (D7) as
described under
