Chainsaw chains ugh

[Easy Livin’ 3000]

You can't go wrong with a Husqvarna low kick-back chain. Yes they are a bit more tricky to set the depth raker on but it's worth it unless you are comfortable with a professional chain. I also use Carlton Chains which stay razor sharp but do dramatically increase the risk of kickback. They literally pull ribbons of wood instead of chips.

Quick question- I started using a Husky this year, and an having issues with the depth raker on the chain. There is barely enough clearance for the round file when sharpening the teeth. Also, I am not sure how to file the depth raker down when it needs it. There is a reference line on the raker, looks like right angle line imprinted in the raker. Thanks!
