Adjusting the Chain (tooth) Stop
1. With the chain clamped in
position, rotate the chain
stop in behind the chain
tooth aligned with the
sharpening wheel from the
previous setting.
2. Adjust the chain stop knob
so that it is firmly behind
and at the bottom of the
aligned chain tooth, by
rotating either clockwise
to move the chain stop
forward or anti-clockwise
to move the chain stop
backward.
3. When the chain stop is
properly adjusted it should
be directly behind the chain
tooth as shown. To secure
in position rotate the chain
stop lock nut clockwise as
far as possible.
Adjusting the Depth of Cut
1. Ensure the chain is still locked in
place, the chain stop still flipped into
position and the chain stop knob and
lock nut are still secured.
2. Rotate the depth of grind knob
clockwise as far as it will go (so as
much of the pin is exposed under
the head piece as possible).
3. Rotate the depth of grind lock nut
towards the housing of the tool.
4. Lower wheel towards the face of the
tooth. The depth of grind pin should
meet the depth stop platform and
stop the sharpening wheel from
travelling the full distance to the
tooth.
5. Whilst still applying downward pressure on the hand piece
simultaneously start rotating the depth of grind knob anti-clockwise.
Slowly continue rotating the knob anti clockwise whilst watching the
sharpening wheel get closer to the tooth of the chain.
6. When the wheel enters along the
face of the tooth, make sure the
wheel is lowered until it covers
the full face of the tooth but
DOES
NOT
touch the tooth body below.
Alternatively, you can lower the
sharpening wheel until it firmly sits
on top of the tooth body and then
rotate the depth of grind knob 1/2
a turn clockwise to lift it slightly away from the
body. Lifting the sharpening wheel away from the
body will prevent cutting into the body or link and
damaging the chain.
7. When the depth adjustment is
correct, hold the depth of grind knob
in position with one hand, using the
free hand rotate the grind lock nut
clockwise locking the depth of grind
pin in position.
The initial set up is now complete.
Fine adjustments may still need
to be made once first sharpening
operation is performed.
