Description
The STIHL Guide Bar Leveller restores square, smooth rails on guide bars using a secure file guide, helping prevent wear and maintain precise cutting.
STIHL Guide Bar Leveller
The STIHL Guide Bar Leveller helps you quickly restore a straight, clean edge on your saw’s guide bar. It clamps a flat file securely into its ergonomic handle, ensuring precise contact at the correct angle. As a result, you can maintain bar integrity even after heavy use or transport—which keeps your chainsaw performing flawlessly across multiple tasks.
Stable File Guide System
The leveller holds a hardened tool steel file (100 × 22 mm) firmly in place. Therefore, you only need to slide it along the guide bar rails to remove burrs and sharp edges. This controlled motion ensures that every stroke remains square and consistent, which is especially important during regular maintenance.
Improves Guide Bar Longevity
By removing deformations and maintaining a 90° rail angle, this tool prevents premature bar wear. Consequently, your chainsaw cuts straighter, runs smoother, and experiences less strain. Over time, this translates into better performance and reduced maintenance costs—both valuable for frequent users.
Ergonomic and User-Friendly
STIHL designed this leveller with a molded plastic grip that fits comfortably in hand. Additionally, it positions the file precisely, helping even less experienced users achieve professional-quality results. Because of its compact size, it’s also easy to carry in a toolbox or rucksack.
Essential for Regular Maintenance
This tool suits any STIHL guide bar that develops minor damage or burrs. Hence, it’s a perfect companion for routine bar maintenance, whether you’re servicing equipment in the workshop or preparing saws in the field. Keeping bar rails straight is key to consistent, safe cutting.
