■ Saw Chain
It is very important for smooth and safe op-
eration to always keep the cutters sharp.
The cutters need to be sharpened when:
• Sawdust becomes powder-like.
•You need extra force to saw in.
• The cut path does not go straight.
•Vibration increases.
• Fuel consumption increases.
Cutter setting standards:
Be sure to wear safety gloves.
Before filing:
• Make sure the saw chain is held securely.
• Make sure the engine is stopped.
• Use a round file of proper size for the chain.
