My bar has no holes to bolt the mill on maybe I got the wrong bar ?

Holes are not required for assembly. The mounting bolts are pointed and bite into your chainsaw bar. You can mount the mill wherever you want on your chain bar. Just stay away from the chain. They work quite well.

If you have assembled the mill correctly you don't need holes. That is why I bought this mill. You should get a ripping chain. This is going to give a smoother cut and your chain isn't going to get to hot.

It shouldn't bolt to the bar, you tighten the screws up against the bar. I believe you are supposed to use a torque wrench to measure the amount that you tighten it

You don't need holes in your bar! Just slide the bar into the clamp close to the saw, and tighten the two bolts underneath the clamp! then you are set!

Thats what I put them on and it worked but I ended up using the stock bolts on the bar ends because the bars have a welded nut at the end. You also may have to adjust the levers for the bar clamp

Try switching around the feet and don't tighten anything until you get all the bolts through. If anything, you might have to drill a little, but I didn't have to. Just keep it kinda loose, until you get everything in.

Bar is predrilled so you would have drill a hole for the bolt that connects the bar to the bracket. Also need to make sure you mount the bracket to stud or rafter. 45 in doesn't sound like standard spacing. Good luck.

I just put the top bolt in adjusted it to where it was level and drilled my own holes to make it work the rack was 1" my sissy bar was 2"

flip it over, look for a flat wood center platform with a center hole and four unused holes surrounding it. Even if it is the wrong bolt pattern (mine was) just center it and drill four new holes. Obviously you have to remove the existing legs or supports.

There are no designated lifting points on this mill. This mill was difficult to lift into place.

Probably needs to be returned. I didn't have this problem. If can't return, I guess you could drill the heads off of the screws and use a vice grips to turn the threaded part out, then replace the screws with suitable hardware store replacements.

I mounted mine on a Craftsman saw and had to drill. I drilled the mount not the saw. Chances are you may have to drill.

There is an arrow on top of the bar. Make sure it is facing forward. Somewhere I read if you put them on backwards, that would happen.

I would try loading your bike onto the rack with your existing bolt to see if that worked instead of using the one they provide

I would contact the manufacturer and get replacements. Those beads are the bearings and help the bar move smoothly.

I've had this stand for several years now and if I remember correctly I might have come across that issue but luckily I had some nuts that actually got the bolts...I suggest u go to your local hardware store and find the nuts for them. It's much faster and the stand is worth it hope this helps

My bar had 1 screw/bolt under the middle bar, right in the center. I did this a while ago but I seem to remember it being Torx. The bracket kind of wraps the back of the bar with the bottom hole on the bracket lining up with the screw/bolt. Since gravity works against this I used a dab of loctite on the threads. It has all worked great for me.

There is an allen-screw holding the base to the bar, if that is the part you say is loose simply remove it, tighten it an re-install. If you have mounted it on a soft wall covering, like sheet-rock, and not installed long screws into a wall stud you will have to move it up or down and re install and fill the old holes. It will eventually loosen again, unless you mount it on something solid, or place a wood brace behind the sheetrock.

The bar has to be tightened to a smooth flat surface, but as I recall from many years ago, there is a "lip" and what the bar would have to be tightened to would not be wide enough. If there is a phone number or email address, call/write & ask. Of course, if it doesn't work, you can return it.

Don't know about that. Do know that the design of the jig allows a lot of play. It's about impossible to drill the holes in the correct location. I ended up not using it and did the job on a friends mill. Save your money and go to a gunsmith to have the job done
