Japa 2100 processor "chainsaw cutting problem"

Recommended Posts

I have an old Japa 2100 firewood  processor which does all I want it to do.  Recently while processing lengths  of  cordwood into logs the chain /bar jams in the wood I am cutting through.  Is this because the chain is blunt and the bar has a slight burr on it due to excessive use.  I have  had the machine from new 14yrs ago but the problem I have described has only started to occur recently.

Thanks for your replies. Sorry to have mislead you @dumper .

I sharpen the chain on a regular basis as needed as I log up about 200tons of cordwood each winter.

I think my mistake is not filing off the slight burr on the sides of the chain bar each time I sharpen the chain ,also getting chains and bars does not help ie putting a 1.3mm wide chain  in a 1.5mm  wide chain bar!!!!!! 

We live and learn thanks again and I wish you a safe 2021.
