When attached to a Dremel rotary tool, the chain saw sharpening
attachment will sharpen nearly all common sizes of chain if you follow these
simple instructions.
SHARPENING THE CHAIN
1. Set your saw on a flat, solid surface. For proper sharpening the chain
tension should be adjusted (as specified in the Chain Saw Owner's
Manual). Sharpening will be best accomplished if done on the flat of the
saw bar – somewhere near the middle of the bar.
2. Position the saw so that you are looking at the side of the chain bar
with the motor to your right. Cutter teeth on the far side of the chain
are sharpened, from inside to outside as shown in
flat on the tooth with the 30º index line parallel with the chain. Align the
index line with the chain. Two or three light strokes are usually enough
unless the cutters have been damaged. Sharpen all cutters equal. Start
with the cutter with the most visual damage (i. e. nicks or gouges) and
sharpen all cutters equally. Do not remove excessive material as this
only shortens the life of the chain.
Note: Sharpen cutter teeth only, not the depth gauge .
3. When all of the teeth on the top of the bar have been sharpened,
advance the chain using a glove or a rag by pulling the chain toward
the end of the bar. Repeat until all the teeth on the far side of the chain
have been sharpened.
4. Turn the saw around so that you are looking at the side of the chain bar
with the motor to your left. Sharpen the cutter teeth on the far side of
the chain, from inside to outside, or away from you
flat on the tooth with the 30º index line parallel with the chain. Repeat
the process above to sharpen all of the cutter teeth on the far side of
the chain.
5. After your chain has been sharpened a number of times, you may find
