5. Operating Instructions (Sharpening Process)

2. Repeat Strokes: Perform approximately three to five strokes per tooth. The exact number of strokes may vary depending on the dullness of the tooth. Ensure consistent pressure and maintain the correct angle for each stroke.
3. Check for Burrs: After sharpening, carefully check the back of the cutting tooth for a small burr. This burr indicates that the tooth has been sharpened effectively. The burr can be removed by lightly filing the back of the tooth with a flat file, if necessary, or it may wear off during initial use.
4. Move to Next Tooth: Advance the chain to the next cutting tooth facing the same direction and repeat the sharpening process. Continue this until all teeth on one side of the chain are sharpened.
5. Sharpen Opposite Side: Once all teeth facing one direction are sharpened, either flip the chainsaw or move to the other side of the guide bar. Reposition the file holder for the opposite direction (the arrows on the tool will now point the other way) and sharpen the remaining teeth following the same procedure.
6. Coherència: Maintain a consistent number of strokes for each tooth to ensure uniform sharpness and length across the entire chain, which is crucial for balanced cutting.
