3. Use a 4 mm (5/32 inch) diameter round file and holder.
Do all your filing at the midpoint of the bar.
4. Keep the file level with the top plate of the tooth. Do
not let the file dip or rock.
5. Using light but firm pressure, stroke towards the front
corner of the tooth.
6. Lift the file away from the steel on each return stroke.
7. Put a few firm strokes on every tooth. File all left-hand
cutters (A) in one direction. Then move to the other
side and file the right-hand cutters (B) in the opposite
direction.
8. Remove filings from the file with a wire brush.
CAUTION
A dull or improperly sharpened chain can cause
excessive engine speed during cutting which may result
in severe engine damage.
WARNING
Improper chain sharpening increases the potential of
kick-back.
WARNING
Failure to replace or repair a damaged chain can cause
serious injury.
WARNING
The saw chain is very sharp. Always wear protective
gloves when performing maintenance to the chain.
TOP PLATE FILING ANGLE
See figure 57.
(A) Correct 30° – file holders are marked with guide marks
to align file properly to produce correct top plate angle.
(B) Less than 30° – for cross cutting.
(C) More than 30° – feathered edge dulls quickly.
SIDE PLATE ANGLE
See figure 58.
(D) Correct 80° – produced automatically if you use the
correct diameter file in the file holder.
(E) Hook – "Grabs" and dulls quickly, increases the
potential of kick-back. Results from using a file with a
diameter too small or a file held too low.
(F) Backward slope – needs too much feed pressure,

causes excessive wear to the bar and chain. Results from
using a file with a diameter too large or file held too high.
MAINTAINING DEPTH GAUGE CLEARANCE
See figure 51. See figure 59 - 60.
■ Maintain the depth gauge (A) at a clearance of 0.6 mm
■ Every time the chain is filed, check the depth gauge
■ Use a flat file (B) (not provided) and a depth gauge
■ Depth gauges must be adjusted with the flat file in the
MAINTAINING THE GUIDE BAR
See figure 61.
Make sure the chain has stopped before you do any
work on the saw.
Every week of use, reverse the guide bar on the saw to
distribute the wear for maximum bar life. The bar should
be cleaned every day of use and checked for wear and
damage.
Feathering or burring of the bar rails is a normal process
of bar wear. Such faults should be smoothed with a file as
soon as they occur.
A bar with any of the following faults should be replaced:
■ Wear inside the bar rails which permits the chain to lie
■ Bent guide bar;
■ Cracked or broken rails;
■ Spread rails.
In addition, lubricate guide bars (with a sprocket at their
tip) weekly. Using a grease syringe, lubricate weekly in
the lubricating hole.
Turn the guide bar and check that the lubrication holes (A)
and chain groove are free from impurities.
