Lowering depth gauges
The depth gauge setting is reduced
when the chain is sharpened.
N Use a filing gauge to check the
setting every time you sharpen the
chain.
N Place a filing gauge (1) that
matches the chain pitch on the
chain and press it against the cutter
– if the depth gauge projects from
the filing gauge, the depth gauge
has to be lowered.
N File down the depth gauge until it is
level with the filing gauge.
N File the top of the depth gauge
parallel to the stamped service
marking (see arrow) – but do not
lower the highest point of the depth
gauge in this process.
WARNING
The kickback tendency of the machine is
increased if the depth gauges are too
low.
N Place the filing gauge on the chain –
the highest point of the depth gauge
must be level with the filing gauge.
N After sharpening, clean the chain
thoroughly, remove filings or
grinding dust – lubricate the chain
thoroughly.
N Before a long out-of-service period,
clean the chain and store it in a well-
oiled condition.
