General information about how to sharpen the
cutters
Do not use a blunt saw chain. If the saw chain is blunt,
you must apply more pressure to push the guide bar
through the wood. If the saw chain is very blunt, there
will be no wood chips but sawdust.
A sharp saw chain eats through the wood and the wood
chips becomes long and thick.
WARNING:
increases a lot if you do not follow the
sharpening instructions.
Note:
To sharpen the cutters on page 405 for
Refer to
information about sharpening of the saw chain.
To sharpen the cutters
1. Use a round file and a file gauge to sharpen the
cutting teeth. (Fig. 76)
Note:
Refer to Accessories on page 409 for
information about which file and file gauge that
Husqvarna recommends for your saw chain.
2. Apply the file gauge correctly on to the cutter. Refer
to the instruction supplied with the file gauge.
3. Move the file from the inner side of the cutting teeth
and out. Decrease the pressure on the pull stroke.
(Fig. 77)
4. Remove material from one side of all the cutting
teeth.
5. Turn the product around and remove material on the
other side.
6. Make sure that all cutting teeth are the same length.
To adjust the tension of the saw chain
WARNING:
incorrect tension can come loose from the
guide bar and cause serious injury or death.
A saw chain becomes longer when you use it. It is
important to adjust the tension of the saw chain regularly
to make sure that it is correct. Do a check of the tension
of the saw chain before you operate the product. Tighten
the saw chain as tightly as possible, but it must be
possible to pull the saw chain around freely by hand.
Note:
A new saw chain has a running-in period. Do a
check of the tension more frequently during this period.
1. Turn the chain tension adjuster clockwise to tighten
the saw chain. Apply as much tension to the saw
chain as possible. It must be tight against the guide
bar. (Fig. 78)

Note:
Turn the adjuster up (+) for more tension
and down (-) for less tension. The saw chain is
tightened correctly when you can turn it easily by
hand but it is tight against the guide bar.
2. Make sure that you can pull the saw chain around
freely by hand and that it does not hang from the
guide bar. (Fig. 79)
To lubricate cutting equipment
WARNING:
equipment may cause the chain to snap,
which could lead to serious, even fatal
injuries.
WARNING:
Waste oil is dangerous for persons, the
product and for the environment.
Saw chain oil
• Use saw chain oil of good adherence to the saw
chain. The saw chain oil must keep its viscosity in
all weather, for example, during hot summer or cold
winter.
• Use Husqvarna chain oil for maximum saw chain life
and to keep environmental damage to a minimum.
If Husqvarna saw chain oil is not available, use a
standard saw chain oil.
• In areas where oil for lubrication of saw chains is not
available, use X-Guard BIO chain oil.
• Make sure that the lubrication of the saw chain
works correctly. Fill with saw chain oil and examine
the saw chain lubrication if it is necessary.
To do a check of the guide bar
1. Examine if there are burrs on the edges of the guide
bar. Remove the burrs using a file. (Fig. 80)
2. Clean the groove in the guide bar. (Fig. 81)
3. Examine the groove in the guide bar for wear.
Replace the guide bar if it is necessary. (Fig. 82)
4. Examine if the guide bar tip is rough or very worn.
(Fig. 83)
5. Turn the guide bar daily to extend its life cycle. (Fig.
84)
To clean the product, the battery and
the battery charger
1. Clean the product with a dry cloth after use.
2. Clean the battery and battery charger with a dry
cloth. Keep the battery guide tracks clean.
3. Make sure that the terminals on the battery and the
battery charger are clean before use.
4. Clean the inner surface of the protective cover with a
brush.
