Saw Chain Sharpening
It is very important for smooth and safe operation to always
keep the chain sharp.
The chain needs to be sharpened when:
• Sawdust becomes powder-like.
• You need extra force to saw.
• The cut does not go straight.
Be sure to wear safety gloves.
• Remove the pruner attachment from the power unit.
• Clamp the guide bar in a vice to secure.
• Sharpen the chain with a 5/32 file and holder
(Oregon part number 16265)
• Place your file on the cutter and push straight forward.
Keep the file position as illustrated (a).
• After every cutter has been set, check the depth
gauge and file it to the proper level as illustrated (b).
• Make sure every cutter has the same length
and edge angles as illustrated (c).
