Saw chain sharpening
NOTE: Never saw with a blunt chain. The saw chain is blunt if you have to
push the product into the tree and the chips are very small.
1. Have the saw chain (3) sharpened professionally at an authorised service centre or
sharpen the chain yourself by using the file (27).
WARNING! Only sharpen the saw chain yourself if you are trained and have
experience! Use proper tools to sharpen the saw chain!
2. The height difference between the tooth and the ridge is the cutting depth. When
sharpening the saw chain (3) you have to consider the following points (Fig. 44).
> File angle
> Cutting angle
> File position
> Diameter of round file
> File depth
3. To sharpen the chain proceed as follows:
> Use protective gloves.
> Ensure the chain is correctly tensioned.
> Engage the chain brake to lock the chain on the bar.
