contribute to rapid bar wear.  To help minimize bar wear, the following guide bar maintenance 
procedures are recommended. 

Warning: always wear protective gloves during maintenance operations. Do 
not carry out maintenance when the engine is hot. 

11.3 

Chain sharpening: 

For  the  inexperienced  chain  saw  user,  we  recommend  that  the  saw  chain  be  professionally 
sharpened by the nearest professional service center. If you feel comfortable sharpening your 
own saw chain, special tools are available from the professional service center. 
Chain  sharpening  requires  special  tools  to  ensure  that  cutters  are  sharpened  at  the  correct 
angle and depth. For the inexperienced chain saw user, we recommend that the saw chain be 
professionally  sharpened  by  the  nearest  professional  service  center.  For  non-experienced 
users  of  the  chain  saw,  we  recommend  to  have  the  chain  sharpened  by  a  specialist  in  any 
authorized service. 

Warning:  when  having  wrong  sharpened  chain,  there  may  occur  a  higher 
danger of kickback. 

 

To sharpen the saw chain, use the suitable sharpening tools: 

  round chain file 

  file leading 

  chain measuring caliber. 

These tools can be bought in any specialized stores. 

 

To gain well shaped sawdust particles, use sharp chain. If there appears wooden powder, 
you must sharpen the saw chain. 

Warning:  all  cutting  teeth  must  be  similarly  long.  Different  length  of  the 
teeth can cause rough run of the chain or its rupture, as well. 

 

Minimum length of the teeth must be 4mm. If they are shorter, remove the saw chain. 

 

Angles, which the teeth are under, must be followed. 

 

To sharpen the chain basically, make 2 to 3 pulls of the file from the inside out. 

Warning: after 3 to 4 of  your sharpening of the cutting teeth,  have the saw 
chain  sharpened  in  any  authorized  service.  They  will  sharpen  the  depth 
limiter as well, which provides the distance. 

Chain sharpening 
The pitch of the chain (fig. 20) depends on the model. 

 

POWXQG4060 

Pitch 

9.525 

mm (3/8”) 

Gauge 

1.27 mm (0.05

”) 

Sharpen the chain using pro

tective gloves and a round file of ø5/32” (4mm). 

Always sharpen the cutters only with outward strokes (fig.21) observing the values given in fig. 
20. After sharpening, the cutting links must all have the same width and length. 

Warning:  a  sharp  chain  produces  well-defined  chips.  When  your  chain 
starts to produce sawdust, it is time to sharpen.
