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.
CLEANING 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. U)
3. Make sure to clean oil passages thoroughly.
