Passos generals d'instal·lació:

2. Remove Bar Cover: Loosen the bar nuts and remove the clutch cover/side plate.
3. Treure la cadena antiga (si escau): Carefully remove the old chain and guide bar. Clean any sawdust or debris from the sprocket and bar groove.
4. Instal·leu la cadena nova: Place the new Oregon B70 chain into the groove of the guide bar, ensuring the cutting edges are facing the correct direction (towards the nose of the bar on the top side).
5. Fit Chain Around Sprocket: Loop the chain around the drive sprocket.
6. Reattach Bar Cover: Position the guide bar studs through the holes in the bar. Replace the clutch cover/side plate and hand-tighten the bar nuts.
7. Ajustar la tensió de la cadena: While holding the nose of the guide bar up, adjust the chain tensioning screw until the chain fits snugly against the bottom of the guide bar, but can still be pulled freely by hand. The drive links should not come out of the bar groove.
8. Estrenyeu les femelles de la barra: Fully tighten the bar nuts. Recheck chain tension after tightening.
9. Comprovació final: Reconnect the spark plug wire/battery. Briefly run the chainsaw at low speed to allow the chain to seat, then recheck and adjust tension if necessary. A new chain may stretch slightly during initial use.

6. Consideracions operatives

While the B70 chain is a component, its proper use is integral to chainsaw operation.

• Mantenir la nitidesa: A sharp chain cuts efficiently and safely. A dull chain can cause kickback, excessive wear on the chainsaw, and poor cutting performance. Sharpen the chain regularly using appropriate filing tools and techniques, or have it professionally sharpened.
• Lubricació adequada: Ensure your chainsaw's automatic oiler is functioning correctly and the chain is receiving adequate lubrication during operation. This prevents premature wear and overheating.
• Correct Tension: Periodically check and adjust chain tension during operation, especially during the first hour of use with a new chain. Proper tension prevents the chain from derailing or binding.
• Avoid Contact with Obstacles: Do not allow the chain to come into contact with dirt, rocks, metal, or other hard objects, as this will dull or damage the chain cutters.

7. Manteniment

Regular maintenance extends the life of your Oregon B70 PowerCut chain and ensures safe operation.

7.1. Afilat

The B70 chain features Top-Plate Filing Indicators to assist with accurate sharpening. Use a round file of the correct diameter (typically 7/32" for 3/8" pitch, .050" gauge chain) and a flat file for depth gauges. Maintain consistent angles and depth gauge settings as specified by Oregon or your chainsaw manual.

7.2. Neteja

After each use, remove the chain and guide bar. Clean off sawdust, sap, and debris from the chain, bar groove, and sprocket. This prevents buildup that can impede chain movement and lubrication.

7.3. Inspecció

Regularly inspect the chain for:

• Apatia: Check for rounded cutting edges or excessive wear.
• Danys: Look for cracked links, bent drive links, or missing rivets. Replace damaged chains immediately.
• Estirament: While some stretch is normal, excessive stretch indicates wear. If the chain can no longer be tensioned properly, it needs replacement.
