Only use Husqvarna depth gauge tool to get the correct depth gauge setting and bevel for the depth gauge. 2. Put the depth gauge tool on the saw chain. Note: See the package of the depth gauge tool for more information about how to use the tool. 3. Use the flat file to remove the part of the depth gauge that extends through the depth gauge tool. 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.
