11.2 Maintenance and care of the cutting gear
Saw chain:
Just like any other cutting tool, the saw chain is
subject to natural wear. Your chainsaw will only be
able to deliver its full potential if the saw chain is
correctly sharpened. Every saw chain is matched to
the relevant chainsaw type in terms of its form,
cutting performance and design. Only use the
genuine SOLO saw chain which is approved for your
chainsaw / guide bar type.
Permissible cutting gear and the corresponding
cutting lengths Î refer to the last two inside pages of
this operating manual ( - 258 -.)
Sharpening the saw chain:
A special round chain file with the correct diameter
should be used for sharpening. Normal round files
are not suitable.
A file holder makes
guidance of the file
easier, as it has
markings for the
correct sharpening
angle (align the
markings parallel to the
saw chain) and limits
the penetration depth
(4/5 of the file
diameter)
Position the file holder on the roof of the tooth. The
file should only engage during the forward stroke. Lift
the file off when moving it back.
The shortest cutting tooth is
sharpened first. The length of
this tooth is then the target
size for all the other teeth on
the saw chain. All of the cutting elements must have
the same length.
To start with, file all of the cutting elements on one
side from the inside outwards, then file all of the
cutting elements on the other side.
Always fully file out any damage from the side plate
or the roof of the tooth.
Correction of the depth limiter:
The distance b between the
depth limiter (round nose) and
the cutting edge defines the
thickness of the chips. The
best cutting results are
obtained with the prescribed
depth limiter spacing, which
should be checked every time
the saw chain is sharpened.
Lay the depth limiter gauge on
the cutting element. If the
depth limiter protrudes, file off
the protruding part with a flat
file.
Round off the front edge of
the depth limiter. The original
shape must be restored.
CAUTION: If the spacing is too large then there
is a greater risk of kickback.
For your safety: If you would like to pull the chain
through while filing, pull the chain forwards with a
screwdriver towards the tip of the rail. This will reduce
the risk of slipping.
Sprocket
Before you can fit a new saw chain you must check
the condition of the sprocket. Worn sprockets will
damage your new saw chain. If necessary, replace
the sprocket with the new chain. Grease the bearing
with lithium-based grease whenever the sprocket is
replaced.
Tip: We recommend the use of two saw chains per
sprocket, and that both chains should be replaced as
frequently as possible so that all of the components
wear evenly. Once a certain wear limit is reached,
replace all of the parts together again.
To replace the chain
wheel (after dismantling
the guide bar cover and
the guide bar with chain),
push the chain wheel with
its washer down slightly
and lift off the locking ring
with a small screwdriver.
To refit the locking ring after
fitting the new chain wheel
push the chain wheel, with
its washer, down again
slightly. It is best to use flat
pliers when refitting the
retaining ring.
