SAW CHAIN

Note: Do not file or alter the tops of kickback-reducing bumper tie

straps or bumper drive links.

4. File from the inside of the round ground saw chain cutters to the

outside. (For square ground saw chain, file from the outside of the

cutter to the inside.)

5. After lowering, always file off the front corner of each depth gauge

parallel to its original rounded or ramped shape.

Note: On many saw chains, it may be helpful to tip the depth gauge

tool on end and place it in front of the working corner in order

to protect the cutting surfaces when reshaping depth gauges.
