What It Is Used For

The GE-CS 18 Li-Solo is ideal for sharpening chains without causing excess abrasion. Both the chain tensioner and the angle gauge are places for precise and fast grinding.

How to Use

Set-Up

• Insert the chain that is to be sharpened into the chain bar. To do this, loosen the chain locking screw. Set the grinding angle according to the specifications for your chain. Slacken the locking screw for setting the grinding angle. Set the desired grinding angle using the scale. Tighten the locking screw again. Set the chain stopper. Fold the chain stopper onto the chain.

• Pull the chain backwards against the chain stopper until the latter stops a cutting link. Important! You must make sure that the angle of the stopped cutting link coincides with the grinding angle. If it does not, pull the chain one link further.

• Fold the grinding head down until the grinding wheel is touching the chain link that is to be ground. To do so, you can move the chain back and forth a little using the setting screw of the chain stopper

• Set the depth limit. Fold the grinding head down and set the grinding depth using the setting screw. The grinding depth should be set so that the full cutting edge of the cutting link is sharpened. Lock the chain. Tighten the chain-locking screw

Grinding the Chain Links

• Slowly guide the grinding wheel to the saw blade. If the grinding wheel approaches the saw chain too quickly or jerkily, this may cause damage to the grinding wheel. Injuries may result from catapulting parts! Switch the appliance on at the ON/OFF switch. Carefully bring the grinding wheel with the grinding head so that it is against the set link.

• Switch the appliance off at the ON/OFF switch. Every second link in the chain must be sharpened in this way. To know when every second link in the entire chain has been sharpened, mark the first link (e.g. with chalk). Once all cutting links on one side have been sharpened, the grinding angle must be set to the same number of degrees on the other side. You can then begin to sharpen the links of the other side (without having to make any further adjustments).

Set the Depth Limiter Spacing

• Once the chain has been fully sharpened, you must make sure that the depth limiter spacing is kept (the depth limiters must be lower than the cutting links. You may need to file the depth limiters to the specifications of your chain using a file.
