21 Sharpening the saw chain
Filing the depth gauge
As a result of sharpening the teeth on the chain, the
depth gauge tolerance is reduced. After every second
or third sharpening, it is necessary to adjust the depth
gauge setting.
Place the depth gauge adjustment jig (see fi g.,
point 1) fi rmly on the top edge of two teeth. Make
sure that the groove of the jig is in the groove of the
depth gauge (see fi g., point 2.)
Use a medium-sized fl at fi le (see fi g., point 3). File
the depth gauge (see fi g., point 4) to the level of the
depth gauge adjustment jig.
Remove the depth gauge adjustment jig. Using
a fl at fi le, round the front edge of the depth gauge
(see fi gure). When fi ling, adhere to the prescribed
values (see fi g., point 5).
NOTE: After the chain has been sharpened by
hand several times, have the saw chain sharpened
at an authorised service centre or sharpen it on
a special sharpening machine.
This will renew the even sharpness of all teeth.
