• The following values must be noted in
sharpening the cutting teeth:
- Sharp edge angle (30°)
- Breast angle (85°)
- Apex angle (60°)
- Sharpness depth (0.65 mm)
- Round file diameter (4.0 mm)
Deviations from the meas-
urement data of the cutting
geometry can lead to an
increase of the spring-back
slope of the machine. In-
creased danger of accident!
Special tools are necessary for sharpening
the chain, which guarantee that the cutting
edges are sharpened at the correct angle
and to the correct depth. For the inexperi-
enced user of chainsaws, we recommend
to have the saw chain sharpened by a spe-
cialist or a specialist workshop. If you are
familiar with the sharpening of the chain,
you can purchase the tools, for example
from Parkside (e.g. chain sharpener).
1. Remove the saw chain (refer to the
section on operating the saw). The
chain should be well-tensioned to
ensure proper sharpening.
2. For the sharpening, a round file with
4.0 mm diameter is necessary.
Other diameters damage the
chain and can lead to danger
during work!
3. Sharpen only from the inside to the out-
side. Guide the file from the inner side
of the cutting teeth to the outer side. Lift
the file when you are withdrawing it.

4. Sharpen first the teeth on one side. Turn
the saw around and sharpen the teeth
of the other side.
5. The chain is worn and must be re-
placed by a new saw chain if only
approx. 4 mm of the cutting teeth is
remaining.
6. After the sharpening, all cutting elements
must now be equal in length and width.
7. After every third sharpening, the sharp-
ness depth (depth limitation) must be
checked and the height filed with the
aid of a flat file. The depth limitation
should be set back about 0.65 mm
from the cutting tooth. After the setting
back of depth limitation, round it off a
little at the front.

Adjusting the chain tension

The adjustment of the chain tension is de-
scribed in the chapter "Assembly - tension-
ing chainsaw".
• Switch off the device and remove the
battery (16) from the device
• Check the chain tension regularly and
re-adjust this as often as possible.When
the saw chain is tensioned with 9 N
(approx. 1 kg), the gap between the
saw chain and the guide rail may not
be more than 2 mm.

Starting up a new saw chain

In the case of a new chain, the tensioning
force decreases after some time. Therefore,
you have to re-tension the chain after the
first 5 cuts and no later than after 10 min-
utes' sawing time.
