Cutting Blade
Sharpening
- Keep the blade sharp because:
- a sharp blade will cut the tree quicker and with less power;
- a badly blunted blade becomes warm and may lose its pre-stressing, and
thus sharpening it will require a lot more work;
- less cracking between the teeth is formed in a sharp blade.
- Use for example a 6" v-cut barette file for sharpening.
- Keep the original:
If you are using a hard blade, only have it
serviced by a professional.
Pre-stressing the Blade
If the blade has lost its pre-stressing, take it to a professional with expertise in
