The importance of using a chainsaw depth gauge
Chainsaw depth gauges are an essential part of good chainsaw maintenance. When you notice your chain jumping instead of turning smoothly, you’ll know it’s time to lower the depth guides on your chainsaw. Some people will check them every time they sharpen their chain as part of routine maintenance. However, a good rule to follow is to adjust the depth guides every second or third time you sharpen your chain. Find out more in this article.
The Multi-Sharp chainsaw sharpener is designed for accuracy. Maintaining the correct cutter-to-depth-guide height ensures:
- Cleaner cuts
- Consistent cutting depth
Used correctly, this chainsaw sharpener will extend your chainsaw’s life and reduce the need for frequent replacements.
How to Check Your Chain Pitch
Your chainsaw manual will usually state the pitch. If not:
- Measure the distance between the centres of any three consecutive rivets
- Divide this measurement by 2
- Example: 1/2″ ÷ 2 = 1/4″ pitch
