The guide bar pulls to one side
The angle of the guide bar should be adjusted so
that it is completely in line with the sawing direction.
The deviation may not exceed 0.1 mm on the bar
width.
If the chain has been damaged on one side, or filed
unevenly, it can run incorrectly. The chain will then
wear more on one bar rail, and if you continue to
saw the guide bar will wear unevenly. Even though
you replace the chain, an unevenly worn bar can
guide the chain incorrectly and, in addition, the new
chain can also be worn down.
An unevenly worn bar can be repaired. File the bar
rails so they are equally high, e.g. with an edge file
(SKU: 9999-000-0450), you can file the guide bar
rails to an even height.
TROUBLESHOOTING –
CUTTING EQUIPMENT
The guide bar must not cut at an angle. Any
malfunctioning in this respect is most clearly
noticeable when the guide bar is raised after a
cut has been made. If the bar does not gently rest
against the cut surface, but pushes against it, or
moves away from it, there may be a fault with the
bar or the chain.
Causes of malfunctioning of the cutting equipment:
1. One cause of problem when using the Stack
Cutter is that you have a dull chain.
2. The chain may have been damaged on one side,
e.g. by a metal object in the wood. The chain will
still cut, but will pull to one side.
3. The chain has been filed incorrectly. The cutters
on one side have been filed down less than those on
the other. To get a more even result, try to have the
same working position when filing the right and left
sides of the chain. A few teeth that are damaged
or completely lost after cutting through a nail
does not normally have a noticeable effect on the
performance of the chain.
4. When precision decreases after a period of
problem-free cutting, guide bar wear is almost
always the cause.
Another more common reason for the guide bar
pulling askew, is that it is worn out so that the drive
links touches the bottom in the track of the guide
bar and the chain loses the support provided by the
bar rails. This is shown on the chain by the tip of the
drive link becoming worn.
Test the chain oil with your fingers
In order for the chain oil to work well it must
be viscous and thready. When you place a drop
between the thumb and the index finger and then
open them, long threads should form. If only 2–3
threads form, the oil’s adhesion is insufficient and
the oil will be thrown off at the tip of the guide
bar. We recommend Logosol’s high-performance
vegetable chain oil for chain sawmills (SKU: 0718-
000-1010, 10 litres)
The oil flow is set by a screw on the oil pump. Flow
is set to maximum at the factory and must not be
altered.
