CHECK CHAIN SHARPNESS
A  sharp chain  makes wood  chips. A  dull
chain makes  a sawdust  powder and  cuts
slowly. See CHAIN SHARPENING.
CHECK GUIDE BAR
Conditions  which require  guide  bar mainte-
nance:
S  Saw cuts to one side or at an angle.
S  Saw has to be forced through the cut.
S  Inadequate supply of oil to bar/chain.
Check the condition of guide bar each time
chain is  sharpened. A  worn guide bar  will
damage the chain and make cutting difficult.

in the STOP position, then clean all sawdust
from the guide bar and sprocket hole.
