GUIDE BAR MAINTENANCE

•
Reverse the bar occasionally to prevent partial wear.
•
The bar rail should always be square. Check for wear of the bar rail. Apply a ruler to the bar and the
outside of a cutter. If a gap is observed between them, the rail is normal. Otherwise, the bar rail is worn.
Such a bar needs to be corrected or replaced.
