How To Sharpen The Cutters
Make sure to file all cutters (Fig. 29) to the
specified angles and to the same length,
as fast cutting can be obtained only when
all cutters are uniform.
1. Remove the battery pack. Wear
gloves for protection.
2. Properly tension the chain prior
to sharpening. Refer to the
chapter "ADJUSTING THE CHAIN
TENSION" earlier in this manual.
3. Use a 0.177" (4.5 mm) diameter
round file and holder (available
separately). Do all of your filing at
the middle position of the guide bar.
4. Keep the file level with the top plate
of the tooth. Do not let the file dip or
rock.
5. Keep a correct sharpening angle
of 30° between the file and the
saw chain; see Fig. 30 and 31.
Always use a file holder (available
separately) when sharpening saw
chains by hand. File holders have
markings for the sharpening angle.
6. Using light but firm pressure,
perform a stroke towards the front
corner of the tooth. Lift the file away from the steel on each return stroke.
