Saw Carriage chain guide. This is the replacement guide for the carriage drive chain. Check your guides periodically for wear; if overly worn, the chain will wear the heads off the mounting bolts, making removal of the bolts and guide quite difficult. Verify the size of your guide before ordering – various machines have used several different sizes in the past:
Chain guides experience increased wear when the chain tension is too loose. Be certain to check your chain tension monthly and adjust as necessary. If you find the need to tighten the chain every month, this is usually a sign that the chain needs replacement. When replacing the chain and guides, inspect the condition of the drive and idle sprockets, and the tensioning spring. Contact us to order a new chain and guides and to schedule a visit for installation.
