CHAIN SHARPENING

WARNING:

Improper chain sharpen-

ing techniques and/or depth gauge mainte-

nance will increase the chance of kickback

which can result in serious injury.

WARNING:

Wear protective gloves

when handling chain. The chain is sharp and

can cut you even when it is not moving.

Conditions which indicate the need for chain

sharpening:

S

Reduction in size of wood chips. The size

of the wood chip will decrease as the chain

gets duller until it becomes more like a

powder than a chip. Note that dead or

rotted wood will not produce a good chip.

S

Saw cuts to one side or at an angle.

S

Saw has to be forced through the cut.

Tools required:

S

5/32 inch (4 mm) diameter round file and

file holder

S

Flat file

S

Depth gauge tool

TO SHARPEN CHAIN:

1. Move ON/STOP switch to the STOP

position.

2. Check chain for proper tension. Adjust

chain tension if necessary. See CHAIN

TENSION section.

3. Sharpen cutters.

S

To sharpen the cutters, position the

file holder level (90

˚

) so that it rests

on the top edges of the cutter and

depth gauge.

NOTE:

The chain has both left and

right hand cutters.

cutter to the outside. Then, turn the

chain saw around and repeat the pro-

cess for the other side of the chain.

S

File on the forward stroke only. Use 2

or 3 strokes per cutting edge.

S

Keep all cutters the same length

when filing.

S

File enough to remove any damage

to cutting edges (side plate and top
