Sharpening Instructions
IMPORTANT!
File all the cutters to the same angle and depth! Unequal filing may cause the
saw to vibrate or cut erratically!
1. Using a 4.5 mm round file, sharpen all cutters to a 30° angle. Make sure that one
fifth (20%) of the file’s diameter is always held above the cutter’s top plate.
2. After all cutters are sharpened, use
a depth gauge joiner (A) to measure the height of each depth gauge.
3. As required, lower the depth gauges to a height of 0.025 inch. Use a flat file.
4. After all depth gauges have been adjusted, use a flat file to round each depth
gauge leading edge to its original curvature and angle.
NOTE:
For consistent filing angles, use a filing guide.
NOTE:
See specification page for replacement bar and chain specs.
