Saw Chain

3. Place the preset tie strap

on a flat outer surface of a

chain-breaker anvil. Be sure

the rivets are pointing up.

4. Assemble chain to the preset

tie strap.

5. Assemble tie strap with dot, or

Lubrilink

contour face up, and

the notch toward the drive-link

tangs. Assemble bumper tie

strap in the correct direction,

with the notch toward the

drive-link tangs.

6. Be sure parts are assembled in the correct location,

sequence and direction. Check the illustrations on

pages 4 and 5. If unsure, ask your Oregon

dealer.

7. To form rivet heads, we recommend

use of the Oregon

Rivet Spinner,

part number 24549A, available

from your chainsaw dealer. Follow

the instructions packaged with

the rivet spinner. If you must use

a hammer, strike the rivet head

repeatedly with the hammer’s flat end at varying

angles around the head – carefully forming it as

shown. Be certain to strike only the rivet head.

CAUTION

 Rivet heads must be snug and secure while still allow-

ing all joined parts to move freely. Rapid wear leading

to possible chain breakage and personal injury can be

caused by rivet heads that are either too tight, or too loose.

New rivet heads may be smaller and shaped

differently than factory-spun heads.
