Sharpening your
Chainsaw!
BY GREG DAHL
In this video you will see how I
sharpen my chain for optimal
use. You will see what I use for
angles and how to not heat up
the steal.
One of the worst feeling when you
just finished sharpening your saw
is when you start to cut again and
it feels dull or is cutting crooked.
There is nothing more frustrating.
You spend 30 minutes sharpening
and it is as dull when you quit to
go and sharpen your saw.
I have heard it be said that you
can never get your chain as sharp

as from the store. I beg the differ. I will teach you
how to get that chain as sharp as possible. A
sharp saw is a safe saw. A sharp saw affords
less ware and tear on your saw motor, bar and
bushings.
You will see how keeping a sharp saw can save
you money.
A sharp saw cuts faster so cost are reduced.
Also there is less fatigue on your body so you
can be more efficient.
Watch the video!
Rushing to sharpen a chain will never work.
Take your time. Learn what it take to do the job
right and you will save time, be safer and have
your saw running well for a long time.
Of course this is my opinion and this is what
works for me. I am sure there are other
techniques that work as well as mine.
Happy sharpening
