Sharpen the cutters if it is not easy for the chain to go into the

4. File all the cutters to the specified angles and the same
length.
During the process,
• Keep the file flat with the surface to be sharpened.
• Use the midpoint of the file bar.
• Use light but firm pressure when sharpening the
surface.
• Lift the file away on each return stroke.
• Sharpen the cutters on one side and then move to the
other side.
Replace the chain if:
• The length of the cutting edges is less than 1/5 in. (5
mm).
• There is too much space between the drive links and the
rivets.
• The cut speed is slow
• Sharpening the chain many times but it does not increase
the cutting speed. The chain is worn.
