the risk for accidents.

Check regularly the degree
of wear on the drive wheel.
Change if it is irregularly
worn.

The chain drive wheel
should be changed each
time the chain is changed.

1. Check that the oil

channel in the bar is not

necessary.

2. Check that the groove in

the edge of the bar is

Checking wear on cutting equipment

A. Saw chain

Check the saw chain daily
for:

• Visible cracks in rivets

and links.

• Whether the chain is

stiff.

• Whether rivets and links

are badly worn.

Use a new chain to
compare the wear on the
old one.

When the length of the
cutting teeth has worn
down to only 4 mm the
chain must be replaced.

C. Guide bar

Check regularly:
• Whether there are burrs

on the edges of the bar.
Remove these with a file
if necessary.

• Whether the groove in

the bar has become badly
worn. Replace the bar if
necessary.

• Whether the tip of the

bar is uneven or badly
worn. If a hollow forms
on one side of the bar tip
this is due to a slack
chain.

• To prolong the life of the

bar you should turn it
over daily.
