Lowering depth gauges
The depth gauge setting is reduced
when the chain is sharpened.
Use a filing gauge to check the
N
setting every time you sharpen the
chain.
1
Place a filing gauge (1) that
N
matches the chain pitch on the
chain and press it against the cutter
– if the depth gauge projects from
the filing gauge, the depth gauge
has to be lowered.
Saw chains with humped drive link (2) –
upper part of humped drive link (2) (with
service mark) is lowered along with the
depth gauge.
WARNING
The other parts of the humped drive link
must not be filed since this may increase
the kickback tendency of the saw.
38
File down the depth gauge until it is
N
level with the filing gauge.
2
File the top of the depth gauge
N
parallel to the stamped service
marking (see arrow) – but do not
lower the highest point of the depth
gauge in this process.
WARNING
The kickback tendency of the saw is
increased if the depth gauges are too
low.
Place the filing gauge on the chain –
N
the highest point of the depth gauge
must be level with the filing gauge.
After sharpening, clean the chain
N
thoroughly, remove filings or
grinding dust – lubricate the chain
thoroughly.
Before a long out-of-service period,
N
clean the chain and store it in a well-
oiled condition.
