Important points for proper maintenance of saw
chain:
• Keep the cutters sharp at all times.
• Keep the left and the right cutters properly

aligned.
- Note that blunt or irregular cutters will result in

poor cutting performance, increased vibration
of chains and premature breakage of the saw
chain.

• Drive link serves to remove sawdust from the

groove of the guide bar.
Keep the lower edge of the drive link sharp
where indicated.

SETTING SAW CHAIN

• For setting saw chain, round file (90SG: 4.5 mm

dia. or 91VG: 4.0 mm dia. 5/32 in.) and flat file
are used.

• To keep correct position and correct angle,

use the file holder (Sure Sharp

®

).
