Breaking in a new saw chain (1)
A new chain and bar will need chain readjustment af-
ter as few as 5 cuts. This is normal during the break-
ing period, and the interval between future adjust-
ments will begin to lengthen quickly.

The chain needs sharpening when:
• The sawdust produced when sawing damp wood
looks like wood flour.
• The chain penetrates the wood only under great
pressure.
• The cutting edge is visibly damaged.
• The saw is pulled to the left or right when sawing.
This is caused by uneven sharpening of the chain.
Important: Sharpen frequently, but without re-
moving too much metal!
Generally, 2 or 3 strokes of the file will be enough.
Have the chain resharpened at a service center when
you have already sharpened it yourself several times.
