13.9 Sharpening and caring for the saw chain

m WARNING
Risk of injury!
Always wear protective gloves when handling the
saw chain (17). There is a danger of injury from the
sharp cutting teeth!
Note
A properly maintained and sharpened saw chain re-
duces the amount of bodily effort and level of wear
and produces a better result.
Clean, maintain and sharpen the saw chain regularly.
Check the saw chain regularly for cracks and dam-
aged rivets.
A grinder can be attached to the grinder support (18)
for a secure grip during grinding.
