The KD3574 is a two-piece kit for hand-sharpening the saw chains of petrol and electric chainsaws. It consists of a file and a dedicated guide that sets the correct sharpening angle — essential for even and effective sharpening of every chain tooth.
A separate guide mounted on the chain or the guide bar sets a constant file angle on every stroke. Keeping the same angle for all the teeth means an even cut and no vibration while the saw is running.
Hand sharpening lets you assess the condition of each tooth as you go and adjust the number of file strokes. This method is particularly useful in the field, where access to electric sharpeners is limited.
A regularly sharpened chain requires less pressure when cutting, which reduces the load on the engine and the drive system of the saw. This slows down the wear of both the chain and the drive sprocket.
The lightweight kit with its pouch can be taken straight to the job site. It lets you sharpen the chain without having to dismantle and transport the saw to a workshop.

Chainsaw files are made in various diameters (most commonly 4 mm, 4.8 mm and 5.5 mm), matched to the chain pitch. Before use, check the chain marking on the saw housing or in the instruction manual and make sure the file diameter matches the one required for that chain. This information is usually given by the kit manufacturer or is available on the product page.
Before sharpening, secure the chain — most conveniently by applying the chain brake or locking the drive sprocket. The kit's guide is placed on the chain teeth as instructed, and an equal number of file strokes is then made on each cutting tooth. After sharpening, check and if necessary adjust the depth gauge setting, which controls the thickness of the chip — depth gauges set too high reduce the efficiency of even a sharpened chain.
Store the file in the supplied pouch, protecting the cutting teeth from damage and contamination. After each use, clean metal filings off it with a brush.
