Saw chain sharpening
NOTE: Saw chain sharpening may be required:
- after damp wood is cut (mealy sawdust),
- when handling the product becomes di󰀩cult (pulls to the
left or right),
- when the saw chain is blunt (excessive force is required to
penetrate the wood), or obviously damaged.
Never saw with a blunt chain. The saw chain is blunt if you
have to push the product into the tree and the chips are very
small.
