13. SAWCHAIN SHARPENING

Keep the saw chain sharp. Cutting will be signiﬁcantly faster and particularly safer. Dull chain

increases wear and tear of the sprocket, guide bar, chain and drive. If you have to force the

chainsaw while only wood dust and a few chippings are produced while cutting, it means that

the chain is dull.

Equipment required for saw chain sharpening

Purchase the following equipment from your local vendor, tool shop or hobby market.

Round ﬁle 5/32"

Raker

File guide rail 5/32"

Chops

Middle-sized ﬂat ﬁle

Saw chain sharpening

Use guide rail (33) (see Fig. 14) for ﬁling under the angle of 30° (mark A, Fig. 14).

Adjust the saw chain tension to the correct level.

Fix the guide rail into the chops to ensure the chain is in a stable position.

Note: Do not ﬁx the chain itself.

Press the round ﬁle 5/32" (34), inserted in to the guide rail (33), into the groove between the

upper plate and the chain raker. The chain should touch both the upper plate and the raker

(see Fig. 14).

Note: File in the centre of the guide bar.
