not @ all you should be able to judge what needs taking off after a lot off yrs you will find it come on its own
-
swb place your flat file in line with the run off the chain across 3/4 cutters & you can see the gap ,reduce as required
-
how many off you drop a file size as the cutter gets close to its ware limit ie from 3/8 to 3/16 i find it helps get the maximum out of a chain !!!
-
used to use the old filing guides but done it free hand for 20 yrs+ now , allways do the rakers 1.st as not to catch the freshley sharpend cutter with the flat file:001_smile:
-
employed staff that thought they new better by taking the rakers extra low !!! then they **** a bit off lime stone good by chain hello more expence !!as for grinding chains if needs grinding it needs binning ,havnt used a stihl dealer to grind a chain for donkeys yrs as they made such a poor job of it & blued the chain making it softer !! that why i bye it by the roll & get it made up
-
all chains are sharp out of the box !! if not it would say sharpen before use would it not
-
i thinks more to do with price, pro company job price (ie) £150 not so pro company £100 cash!!!! as far as they are concernd tree cut & saved £50 nicker !! but 90% is trees accesable from a trusty ladder !! above that thay dont want to know because there :scared1:

been using saws since i was 13 yr old thats 30yrs on saws & never done that !!!!! why sharpen a sharp chain ,used to change the angle when moving from s/wood to h/wood but that was yrs ago no point these days saw chain is good on both types these days sounds like a waste off time !!!
