time of about 10 hours in order to
ensure even wear.

Sharpening the cutting teeth
CAUTION! Risk of injury! An incor-
rectly sharpened saw chain increases
the danger of kickback! Use cut-res-
istant gloves when working with the
saw chain or with the blade bar.
A sharp saw chain ensures optimum
cutting performance. It effortlessly
eats through the wood and leaves be-
hind large, long wood chips. A saw
chain is dull when you have to push
the cutting equipment through the
wood and the wood chips are very
small. With a very blunt saw chain, no
chips are produced, only wood dust.
Special tools are required for
sharpening the saw chain to en-
sure that the chain is sharpened at
the correct angle and to the correct
depth. For inexperienced chainsaw
users, we recommend having the saw
chain sharpened by an expert or a
specialist workshop. If you are con-
fident that you can sharpen the chain,
proceed according to the instructions
for your saw chain sharpener (e.g.
PARKSIDE PSG 85 B2).
• The sawing parts of the saw chain
are the cutting links, which con-
sist of a cutting tooth and a depth
gauge lug. The height distance
between these two determines the
sharpening depth.
• The saw chain is worn and must
be replaced with a new saw chain
when only approx. 4 mm of the
cutting tooth is left.
• The following values must be taken
into account when sharpening the
cutting teeth:
