Important points for proper maintenance of saw chain:
• Keep the cutters sharp at all times.
• Keep the left and the right cutters properly aligned.
• Note that blunt or irregular cutters will result in poor
cutting performance, increased vibration of chains and
premature breakage of the saw chain.
• Drive link serves to remove sawdust from the groove
of the guide bar. Keep the lower edge of the drive link
sharp where indicated.
