A chain saw sharp, you need to sharpen often. This is not as difficult as it sounds - all you need are a few simple tools and some practice. There are only two steps to sharpen the saw. First, you need a file or grind the teeth of the chain an edge as sharp as a razor, and secondly, you must have the amount of depth that regulate the amount of wood taken control through each section.
Can you imagine the teeth of the chain, as a small pry bar, eachsmall piece of wood cut every other tooth cutting the opposite side. If each tooth needs a constant supply of wood, with the same angle, and with the same amount of effort or force the saw, then we will have a nice clean cut with a minimum to get by fighting. If you do not pull the chain on both sides and saw through wood like butter, you know you have a sharp saw.
If you learn how to sharpen your saw is a good idea to tightenChain, so there is very little slack. This keeps only the teeth and make it easier to maintain a constant angle when strokes with a round file. You should still be able to move the chain around the bar so comfortable. Remember, the chain before you with a screwdriver.
Look for the transverse angle of the teeth and the upper corner of the cutting edge. Set up your files on duty so that it follows the existing brackets on the teeth. Gently caress the filepoint in the direction of the tooth (away from the body seen). Observe the instructions carefully to make sure you maintain a constant angle. Always count the number of strokes on each tooth - usually 5 or 6 rounds is enough. Then go to the next tooth of the chain and stroke 5 or 6 times with the same angle.
Repeat this pattern for all the teeth that show in the same direction (every other tooth). Then turn the management of files and repeat the process for all the other teeth alternately referred toother side of the saw. Remember, it is very important that each tooth is cut the same amount or the saw will pull to one side when trying to cut.
After several sharpening the teeth are worn down slightly. The indicators should be presented in depth, so it does not exceed the tops of the teeth of the saw. Many people do not go through this step, but if you do not maintain the correct height of the depth of the saw does not cut properly.
All you do is setthe depth of management at the chains on both sides of the teeth and a small notch on the guide you can remove the correct amount of each instrument. Archiving the depth gauge is easier than sharpening their teeth, because you only tried to set the height of the depth, not really sharpen them.
