5.1 Saw Chain Sharpening
For non-experienced users of the chain saw, we
recommend to have the chain sharpened by a
specialist in any authorised service.
Never work with a blunt or damaged saw chain. As a
result of the work with a blunt or damaged saw chain,
there may appear huge physical tiredness, wrong cut and
high chain wear.
