Just go and put a pen mark on the chain where its clicking, wind it round and round. I can pretty match guarantee its going to be that link every time.

So why did another brand new chain from the display saw do the same thing ?

Chain is assembled from a long length of chain,  cut to length and a joining link used to complete the loop. 

Operator is making up X quantity of chains of the same length and the bag of joining links he uses are the wrong ones. If the chains are coming direct from Oregon then that's pi55 poor quality control.  I bet it's not Oregon though.

 

Be interesting to see what packaging the chains came in.

Exactly . I have been making my own chains up for years ( have an Oregon spinner and riveter )  . You would have thought that an operator would have noticed it . Where is the QC at Oregon ! ?

Forest,

Was that second new chain similarly affected ?

Your dealer ought to hear about this and if he's got any lead in his pencil he ought to get onto Oregon swiftish.

 

I'm not going to say too much but the implications of running that setup are not good - we have a responsibility to do something about it.
