سازگاری
This SALEM MASTER 20-inch chainsaw chain is compatible with various chainsaw models. Always verify your chainsaw's bar length, gauge, pitch, and drive link count to ensure proper fitment. This chain is specifically designed to fit the following SALEM MASTER chainsaw models:
- SALEM MASTER 6220G 20 inch chainsaw
- SALEM MASTER 6220H 20 inch chainsaw
- SALEM MASTER 5820F 20 inch chainsaw
- SALEM MASTER 6220F 20 inch chainsaw
If your chainsaw model is not listed, please compare its specifications (bar length, gauge, pitch, and drive links) with those of this chain to confirm compatibility. The same chainsaw model can sometimes be equipped with different bar lengths, so physical verification is recommended.

دستورالعمل نصب
Always refer to your chainsaw's owner's manual for specific chain replacement procedures. The following are general steps for installing a new chainsaw chain:
- اول ایمنی: Ensure the chainsaw is turned off, the spark plug cap is disconnected (for gas models), or the battery is removed (for electric/battery models) to prevent accidental starting. Wear appropriate safety gloves.
- حذف زنجیر قدیمی: Loosen the bar nuts that secure the clutch cover. Remove the clutch cover and carefully lift the guide bar and old chain off the saw.
- تمیز کردن: Clean any sawdust, debris, or old oil from the guide bar groove, sprocket, and clutch area.
- نصب زنجیر جدید: Place the new SALEM MASTER chain onto the sprocket, ensuring the cutting edges are facing the correct direction (usually forward on the top of the bar).
- نوار راهنمای موقعیت: Fit the chain into the groove of the guide bar. Slide the guide bar onto the mounting studs, ensuring the chain is properly seated around the drive sprocket.
- تعویض پوشش کلاچ: پوشش کلاچ را دوباره نصب کنید و مهرههای کلاچ را با دست محکم کنید.
- تنظیم کشش زنجیر: Adjust the chain tension screw until the chain is snug but can still be pulled freely around the guide bar by hand. There should be no sag on the underside of the bar, but it should not be overly tight. A common test is to lift the chain at the center of the top of the bar; there should be a small gap (e.g., 1/8 to 1/4 inch) between the chain and the bar.
- سفت شدن نهایی: While holding the tip of the guide bar up, fully tighten the bar nuts.
- بررسی روغن کاری: Ensure the chainsaw's bar oil reservoir is filled.
Note: A properly tensioned chain is critical for safe and efficient operation. An overly loose chain can derail, and an overly tight chain can cause premature wear to the chain, bar, and sprocket, and may lead to overheating.
دستورالعمل های عملیاتی
Once the chain is installed and properly tensioned, follow these general operating guidelines for your chainsaw:
- بررسی قبل از عملیات: Before each use, inspect the chain for sharpness, proper tension, and any damage. Check the bar oil level.
- روغن کاری: Ensure the chainsaw's automatic oiler is functioning correctly. Adequate lubrication is vital for chain and bar longevity.
- تکنیک برش: Allow the chain to do the work. Do not force the saw through wood. Maintain a firm grip with both hands and a balanced stance.
- Avoid Dirt and Debris: The semi-chisel design of this chain is more tolerant of dirt, but prolonged contact with soil, rocks, or metal will dull the chain quickly.
- آگاهی از پس زدن: مراقب پس زدن احتمالی باشید. از برش با نوک میله راهنما خودداری کنید.
- ترمز زنجیری: Always engage the chain brake when moving between cuts or when the saw is idling.
تعمیر و نگهداری
Regular maintenance is essential to keep your SALEM MASTER chainsaw chain performing optimally and safely.
- تیز کردن:
The semi-chisel cutters stay sharp longer than full-chisel chains. Sharpen the chain regularly using a round file of the correct diameter for a .325" pitch chain (typically 5/32" or 4.0 mm). Maintain the correct filing angles as specified by your chainsaw manufacturer. A sharp chain cuts efficiently and reduces strain on the saw and operator.
- تمیز کردن:
After each use, clean the chain to remove sap, resin, and sawdust. This prevents buildup that can hinder performance and cause rust. The chain is coated with anti-rust oil, but cleaning enhances this protection.
- روغن کاری:
Ensure continuous and adequate bar oil supply during operation. Proper lubrication reduces friction and heat, preventing premature wear of the chain and guide bar.
- بازرسی:
Regularly inspect the chain for damaged or worn cutters, cracked drive links, or stretched rivets. The heat-treated and quenched rivets provide strong connections, but wear can still occur over time. Replace the chain if significant damage or wear is observed.
- ذخیره سازی:
When storing the chain, especially for extended periods, ensure it is clean and lightly oiled to prevent rust. Store in a dry place.
