Guide Bars

POWER MATCH

BAR NOSES (CONTINUED)

4. With the bar body, nose, and rivet solidly supported

on a strong flat metal surface, peen the Power Match

rivet’s head down with the flat end of a hammer. Do

not hit the bar body, hit only the rivet head. Strike

only on the “X” side.

To check installation, grip the bar body in one hand,

the nose in the other hand, and twist. Nose and

body should feel like a single, solid piece. If not

(if any movement in the nose-bar joint area is felt –

or if any clicking sound from the same area is heard),

tighten the rivet with a few more hammer strokes.

5. File down the

rails of new

noses to align

with the rails

of old bar

bodies.

6. Grease the new nose sprocket. Pump grease into

holes until excess grease appears around the nose-

sprocket teeth of the guide bar.
