Saw Chain Sharpening (continued)
File at an angle perpendicular to the bar, and at an angle of 25eto the direction of
travel(Fig.41).
File the each tooth from the inside towards outside only. File one side of the chain first than
turn the saw around and repeat the process.
Sharpen each tooth equally by using the same number of strokes.
Keep all cutter lengths equal. Check the safety depth gauge height every 5 sharpenings. If
the depth gauges are also trimmed it is essential that the original profile is restored.
Use a dept gauge measuring instrument to check the height of the depth gauge. Depth
gauge measuring jigs are available from most reputable tool merchants (Fig. 42).
