Pixel
Pixel is a guide bar and saw chain combination that is
more light weight and designated to offer more energy
efficient use by cutting narrow cuts. Both guide bar and
saw chain need to be Pixel to get these benefits. Pixel
cutting equipment is marked with this symbol.
Filing equipment and filing angles
Use a Husqvarna

Husqvarna file gauge makes sure that you get the
correct filing angles. The part numbers are given in the
table below.
