Default Re: How to break in a Saw Chain and Chainsaw

i always tighten the chain pretty well the first run. i use it till paint on the edges of the bar start to deminish{before the bar turns blue.} i peel off the chain, file the bar down, put the bar back on and just glance the rakers{hopefully the joker im workin for doesnt use double raker safety chain/i never buy them...they suck! suck,suck,suck!did i mention they suck!}, then depending on what im doing with the saw i put the appropriate angle on and fire it back up}dont be lazy , kkep the file tilted up.
repeat as needed.
