Hello,
I am totally new to chainsaws and just purchased my first chainsaw (Poulan Pro 20” PP5020AV). I am about to purchase a chain sharpener and I need to ensure I get the correct grinding wheel for my chain.
Question?
Is a 3/16” grinding wheel used to sharpen a 3/8” chain?
Oregon 20” D72 Vanguard chain that came with the PP5020AV.
3/8” pitch
.050” gauge
25° top angle
10° down angle
I am having a hard time finding information about electronic chain sharpeners. I have never sharpened a chainsaw chain before so I plan to purchase a Bench-top/Wall-Mount sharpener due to the added complexity of the sharpening the Vanguard chain which has a 10° down angle in addition to the 25° top angle.
The chain sharpener I am considering is:
‘Bench Top/Wall Mount Chainsaw Chain Sharpener’

Any thoughts/experience with this ‘Bench Top/Wall Mount Chainsaw Chain Sharpener’ currently on sale for $99.99 (reg. $199.99) at TSC Stores would also be appreciated.
