not moving.
File Holder Line
S Sharpen cutters on one side of the
chain first. File from the inside of
each cutter to the outside. Then,

of the chain.

chain sharpening:
S Reduction in size of wood chips. The
size of the wood chip will decrease as
the chain gets duller until it becomes
more like a powder than a chip. Note
that dead or rotted wood will not pro-
duce a good chip.
S File on the forward stroke only.
Use 2 or 3 strokes per cutting
edge.
S Keep all cutters the same length
S Saw cuts to one side or at an angle.
S Saw has to be forced through the cut.
