56V LITHIUM-ION CORDLESS CHAIN SAW — CS1610/CS1610-FC 43
Side Plate Angle (Fig. 34)
◾
CORRECT 55° – The optimal angle
can be produced automatically if the
correct diameter file is used in the
file holder.
◾
HOOK – “Grabs” and dulls quickly.
Increases potential of KICKBACK.
Results from using a file with a
diameter that is too small, or a file
held too low.
◾
BACKWARD SLOPE – Needs too much feed pressure, causes excessive wear to
the bar and chain. Results from using a file with a diameter too large, or a file
held too high.
Depth Gauge Clearance
1. The depth gauge should be
maintained at a clearance of 0.025
in. (0.6 mm), as shown in Fig. 35.
Use a depth-gauge tool (available
separately) to check the depth-
gauge clearances.
2. Check the depth-gauge clearance
every time the chain is filed. Use a
flat file and a depth-gauge jointer
(both available separately) to lower
all gauges uniformly (Fig. 36).
Depth-gauge jointers are available
from 0.020 in. to 0.035 in. (0.5 mm
to 0.9 mm). Use a 0.025 in. (0.6
mm) depth-gauge jointer.
3. Depth-gauges must be adjusted
with the flat file in the same
direction the adjoining cutter was
filed with the round file. Use care not to contact the cutter face with the flat file
when adjusting depth-gauges.
