And if you handle the chainsaw’s carbide cutter adequately, you may use it for almost twice the minimum count, meaning you can use it more than 40 times. How Does it Work? The key to the tool is a solid platform that won’t bend, flex, or otherwise move during sharpening. This acts as a fixed guide to sharpen each cutting tooth accurately on the chain with little or no deviation. Therefore, it is better to use the electric chainsaw sharpeners which are even better than the best manual chainsaw sharpeners available in the market. How much does it cost to have a chain sharpened? It has been noticed that most beginners who are using chainsaw sharpeners, often apply force to spin the carbide. This extra force, most of the time, results in wearing, breaking, and damaging the carbide teeth. That is why the forceful spinning of the carbide is completely restricted.

These devices are motor-driven and use an abrasive disk to carrying out the sharpening procedure. They typically have angle adjustments so they can be set to sharpen just about any chainsaw chain out there. Most chains come in 3 standard sizes. Typically, chain size is relative to saw size. Larger more powerful saws use large chain and will be sharpened with large carbides while smaller saws use small chain and will be sharpened with small carbides. If you don’t know what chain your saw has look on the bar for the indicated chain size (pitch). Use a pushing motion, moving the file away from you as opposed to pulling it over the chainsaw teeth.
