Bent chain adjusting screws

[Old2stroke]

This is kind of a rant as I am getting frustrated by receiving saws that have a bent chain adjusting screw because the owner tightened up the bar mount studs without having the adjusting tang located in the bar hole. Just takes a little attention to details. Don't know how much time I've wasted getting the screw out and trying to get the bend out of it so it will run the adjusting block back and forth freely.

And clean them every now and then!

If hamfistedness is the cause of the problem if available renew/replace em don't frigg about making some thing good again If NLA do as you're doing now & add it to the bill
