Sharpening Metal Cutting
Blades
Use a sharpening file (special
N
accessory) to sharpen dull cutting
attachments. In case of more
serious wear or nicks: Resharpen
with a grinder or have the work done
by a dealer – STIHL recommends a
STIHL servicing dealer.
Resharpen frequently, take away as
N
little material as possible: two or
three strokes of the file are usually
enough.
