Sharpening and caring for the saw chain
• A properly maintained and sharpened saw chain reduces the amount of bodily effort and
level of wear and produces a better result.
• Clean, maintain and sharpen the saw chain regularly.
• Check the saw chain regularly for cracks and damaged rivets.
• You will find detailed information on sharpening in a sharpening set, e.g. from Oregon.
• Alternatively, you can use an electrical saw chain sharpener and follow the instruction to
sharpen the saw chain.
• If you have any doubts about carrying out the work, the saw chain should be replaced.
• Better have the sharpening of the saw chain carried out by a specialist workshop or
Service Centre.
