Oregon Measuring Tool Functions

The video tutorial introduces the Oregon measuring tool, designed to help dealers quickly measure chain pitch, chain gauge, bar groove, and file size. The tool features both standard and metric units and can be purchased individually or as part of a maintenance kit. The tutorial demonstrates how to use the tool to measure the four most popular chain pitches, identify chain gauge, measure bar gauge, and determine file size. The tool is shown to be a practical and economical solution for dealers to identify various chain and bar specifications.

What is the primary purpose of the Oregon measuring tool?

• To polish chains for better performance

• To cut chains to the desired length

• To measure the length of a chain

• To help dealers quickly measure chain pitch, gauge, bar groove, and file size

Which units are available on the Oregon measuring tool?

• Only metric units

• Only standard units

• Both standard and metric units

• Neither standard nor metric units

How can you determine the chain pitch using the Oregon measuring tool?

• By counting the number of links in the chain

• By aligning the rivets with the cutouts in the pitch measuring sections

• By measuring the length of the chain

• By weighing the chain

What should you do if the rivets do not align correctly in the pitch measuring section?

• Use a different tool

• Try another section of the tool

• Ignore the misalignment

• Cut the chain to fit

What is the range of chain gauges that the tool can identify?

• From 10,000 to 20,000

• From 50,000 to 70,000

• From 30,000 to 40,000

• From 43,000 to 63,000

How do you know if the chain gauge measurement is correct?

• If the chain falls out of the slot

• If the chain fits loosely in the slot

• If the chain fits tightly and firmly in the slot

• If the chain does not fit at all

What is the correct method to measure the gauge of a bar using the tool?

• By placing the tool on top of the bar

• By inserting the tool into the bar groove and checking for a firm fit

• By measuring the length of the bar

• By weighing the bar

What should you do if there is extra space when measuring the bar gauge?

• Cut the bar to fit

• Ignore the extra space

• Try another corner of the tab

• Use a different tool

How can you identify the size of a file using the tool?

• By measuring the length of the file

• By counting the number of teeth on the file

• By inserting the file through the hole and checking for a firm fit

• By weighing the file

What is the range of file sizes that the tool can identify?

• From 10 inches to 12 inches

• From 1 inch to 2 inches

• From 5 inches to 6 inches

• From 8 inches to 7/32 inches
