Use a file holder
A file holder must be used for manual
resharpening (see table "Sharpening
Tools"). The correct filing angles are
marked on the file holder.

Sharpen chain frequently, take
away as little metal as possible –
two or three strokes of the file are
usually enough.
For checking angles
N
Hold the file horizontally (at a right
angle to side of guide bar) and file
according to the angles marked on
the file holder. Rest the file holder
on the top plate and depth gauge.

Avoid touching the tie straps and
drive links with the file.
Use a STlHL filing gauge (special
accessory, see table "Sharpening
Tools"). This is a universal tool for
checking the filing and side plate angles,
depth gauge setting, cutter length and
groove depth. It also cleans the guide
bar groove and oil inlet holes.
Rotate the file at regular intervals
while filing to avoid one-sided wear.
Use a piece of hardwood to remove
burrs from cutting edge.
Check angles with the filing gauge.
All cutters must be the same length.
