REMEDIES: (T-Y) (CONTINUED)
X. Such wear or chipping near the nose often
accompanies heavy limbing, but can also be
caused by loose chain tension. Invert the bar
on the saw periodically to reduce such wear. On
replaceable-nose bars with minor wear, install a
new nose and file down the nose’s rails as shown
on page 81, instruction number 5, for smooth chain
flow. If wear is extensive (on solid-nose or replace-
able-nose bars), replace the bar. This remedy applies
to picture
 35 .
Y. Frequent boring cuts, loose chain tension, and
accidents or irregular operating techniques which
twist the nose or push the drive links sideways
against the nose’s rails will cause such breakage.
Install a new replaceable-sprocket nose if possible,
otherwise replace the bar.This remedy applies to
pictures
