4. After the sharpening, all cutting elements must now be equal in length and width.
5. After every third sharpening, the sharpness depth (depth limitation) must be checked and
the height filed with the aid of a flat file. The depth limitation should be set back about
0.65 mm from the cutting tooth. After the setting back of depth limitation, round it off a
little at the front.
Maintaining the guide bar
Use cut-protection gloves when handling the chain or the guide bar.
1. Switch off the chainsaw and remove the battery.
2. Remove the sprocket cover, the saw chain and the guide bar.
3. Check the guide bar for wear. Remove burrs and straighten the guide surfaces with a
flat file.
4. Mount guide bar, saw chain and sprocket cover and tighten the chainsaw.
Turning the blade bar
Use cut-resistant gloves when working with the saw chain or with the guide bar.
The guide bar needs to be reversed regularly after a working time of about 10 hours in
order to ensure even wear.
1. Switch off the chainsaw and remove the battery.
2. Remove the sprocket cover, saw chain and guide bar.
3. Turn the guide bar around its horizontal axis and install the guide bar and chain as
described under "Assembling the guide bar and saw chain".
When doing so, pay attention to the correct
rotation direction of the saw chain!
Use the graphical symbol above the sprocket as a guide to align the saw chain when the
guide bar is rotated.
