Saw Chain Maintenance

How to Install New Saw Chain Parts

Read "Operation & Handling Care" on page 20. Note: Use only Oregon® parts to repair Oregon saw chain, and only use parts which are the correct size and type for your saw chain. 1. Remove rivets, and parts to be replaced, as shown under "How to Break Out Rivets" on page 36. Never reassemble a saw chain with old preset tie- straps — always use new preset tie-straps. 2. If needed, file off bottom of new parts to match existing worn parts. File new cutters back to match

worn cutters. Do not file the tops of kickback- reducing bumper tie-straps or bumper drive links.

3. Place the preset tie-strap on a flat outer surface of a saw chain breaker anvil. Be sure the rivets are pointing up.
