Chain Speed, Feed Force, Service Life & Safety: It is well recognized that higher chain speeds and/
or feed forces (with attendant power input) generally equate to faster cutting speeds. It is also well
recognized that faster chain speeds equate to a shorter service life of the chain, bar, and sprocket. In
general, higher chain speeds result in increased wear, shorter service life, and increased occurrence of
chain breakage and potential injury.
For more information on safety-related subjects including “how to details” on the maintenance, inspection,
and replacement of chains, bars, and sprockets; chain-speed calculations; chain sharpening; and trouble-
shooting your harvester chain, bar, and sprocket -- Oregon® urges operators and dealers to use the
Oregon® Harvester Handbook, available from your authorized
Oregon® distributor, or by visiting Oregon® directly www.OregonProducts.com.
