CARE AND MAINTENANCE
To get the best possible performance from your chain saw it
is important to keep the teeth of the chain sharp. Follow these
helpful tips for proper saw chain sharpening:
1. For best results use a 4.5mm file and a file holder or filing
guide to sharpen your chain. This will ensure you always get
the correct sharpening angles.
2. Place the file holder flat on the top plate and depth gauge of
the cutter.
3. Keep the correct top plate filing angle line of 30° on your file
guide parallel with your chain (file at 60° from chain viewed
from above).
4. Sharpen cutters on one side of the chain first. File from the
inside of each cutter to the outside. Then turn your saw
around and repeat the processes (2,3,4) for cutters on the
other side of the chain. NOTE: Use a flat file to file the tops of
the rakers (portion of chain link in front of the cutter) so they
are about .025 inch (.635 mm) below the tips of the cutters.
5. Keep all cutter lengths equal.
6. If damage is present on the chrome surface of the top plates or side plates, file back until such
damage is removed. CAUTION: After filing, the cutter will be
sharp, use extra caution during this process. NOTE: Each time
the chain is sharpened, it loses some of the low kickback quali-
ties and extra caution should be used. It is recommended that a
chain be sharpened no more than four times.
REPLACING CHAIN OIL
• Make sure to use correct after market chain oil for chainsaw. Do not use any other type of oil.
MAINTENANCE
• Regular maintenance ensures a long effective life for the tool. After every 10 minutes of use be sure
to remove the battery (be aware the chain and bar can be hot!) check the bar and chain for correct
tension and lubricate per chainsaw instruction manual. Use only mild soap and damp cloth to clean
the tool. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
• To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and adjustment should be
