A sharp saw chain eats through the wood and the wood chips becomes long and thick. The cutting tooth (A) and the depth gauge (B) together makes the cutting part of the saw chain, the cutter. The difference in height between the two gives the cutting depth (depth gauge setting). A B • Bar groove width, in/mm. The groove width in guide bar must be the same as the chain drive links width.
