angles as illustrated.
■ Guide Bar
•
Reverse the bar occasionally to prevent partial wear.
• The bar rail should always be square. Check for wear
of the bar rail. Apply a ruler to the bar and the out-
side of a cutter. If a gap is observed between them,
the rail is normal. Otherwise, the bar rail is worn.
Such a bar needs to be corrected or replaced.
