:
Use a file holder*
A file holder must be used for manual
resharpening of Super chain. The
correct filing angle is marked on the file
holder.

FG 3:
Leave the chain on the bar.
:
Clamp the bar in a vise if necessary.
:
Lock the chain – push hand guard
forward.
:
To rotate the chain – pull hand guard
against handle.
:
Sharpen chain frequently, take
away as little metal as possible –
two or three strokes of the file are
usually enough.

The file only sharpens on the
forward stroke –
lift the file off the cutter on the
backstroke.
