Saw Chain

• Abnormal chain wear.

• Wear patterns on the chain that may indicate a

worn bar or sprocket.

• Loose rivets (if you can rotate the rivets with your

fingers, they’re too loose).

4. Use the correct sharpening specifications for your

Oregon

chain type. See pages 35-63.

• If unsure of your Oregon

chain's type, or part

number, ask your Oregon

chain dealer.

• For Sharpening Chain with a Grinder see below.

• For Sharpening Chain with a Round File see pages

25-26.

5. After sharpening your chain, check and adjust depth

gauges. See pages 26-30 for instructions.

6. After sharpening and adjusting depth gauges, clean

off any particles of material, then lubricate the chain

thoroughly with bar and chain oil. Soaking the chain

overnight produces the best results.
