It is very difficult to file a chain saw correctly without the proper aids. We recommend the use of a file guide
to ensure maximum cutting efficiency with the least tendency to kickback.
Filing cutters
To file cutters correctly, a ROUND FILE and a FILE GUIDE are required. Look
under «Technical Specifications» for the correct file diameter and file guide for
your saw and chain.
•
File only with the chain properly tensioned. A loose chain wiggles,
making it difficult to file.
•
•
Always file from the inside of each cutter towards the outside.
Lift the file on the return stroke.
File the cutters on one side first. Then turn the saw around and file the
cutters on the other side.
min. 3 mm
(1/8")
•
Make certain that all cutters are of equal length. When the horizontal length
is down to 3 mm (1/8"), the chain is worn out and must be discarded.
CROSSCUTTING
CAUTION!
If the chain becomes stuck in the kerf, STOP THE SAW!
Do not attempt to jerk the saw free.You could be harmed by the chain if the saw
suddenly comes loose. Lever the saw free instead.
•
Cutting a log on the ground. There is little danger of the saw jamming or
the log splintering, but it is difficult to avoid running the saw into the ground
when breaking through at the end of the cut.
Saw straight through the log. Be careful at the end of the cut to avoid contact
with the ground. Keep the saw running at full speed, but be prepared for the
breakthrough.
