General information on sharpening cutting teeth
•
Length (inches/cm)
•
Never use a blunt chain. When the chain is blunt you
have to exert more pressure to force the bar through
the wood and the chips will be very small. If the chain
is very blunt it will produce wood powder and no chips
or shavings.
•
Number of teeth on bar tip sprocket (T).
•
•
A sharp chain eats its way through the wood and
produces long, thick chips or shavings.
The cutting part of the chain is called the cutter and
consists of a cutting tooth (A) and the depth gauge
(B). The cutters cutting depth is determined by the
difference in height between the two (depth gauge
setting).
•
•
Chain pitch (inches). The spacing between the drive
links of the chain must match the spacing of the teeth
on the bar tip sprocket and drive sprocket.
A
B
Number of drive links. The number of drive links is
determined by the length of the bar, the chain pitch
and the number of teeth on the bar tip sprocket.
When you sharpen a cutting tooth there are four important
factors to remember.
1
Filing angle
•
Bar groove width (inches/mm). The groove in the bar
must match the width of the chain drive links.
2
3
Cutting angle
File position
•
Chain oil hole and hole for chain tensioner. The bar
must be matched to the chain saw design.
