Consult your ECHO dealer for
correct sharpening tools and
sizes
1. Lock the chain - push the front
hand guard forward. To rotate
the chain - pull the front hand
guard against front handle.
2. Your chain will have
alternative left and right hand cutters. Always sharpen from the inside
out.
3. Keep the angle lines of the file holder parallel to the line of the chain
and file the cutter back until the damaged area (side plate and top
plate) has been removed.
4. Hold the file horizontally.
5. Avoid touching the tie straps
with the file.
6. Sharpen the most damaged
cutter first and then take all
the other cutters back to the
same length.
7. The depth control determines
the thickness of wood chip produced and must be maintained correctly
throughout the chain life.
8. As the cutter length is
reduced, the depth control
height is altered and must be
reduced.
9. Position the depth gauge, and
file off any of the depth control
which protrudes.
10. Round off the front of the
depth control to allow smooth cutting.
11. Drive link serves to remove sawdust from the groove of the guide bar.
Therefore, keep the lower edge of the drive link sharp.
