Can't really tell in your pics, but it should look like this. BTW it's depth gauge, not raker.:msp_wink:
Depth guage I usually just use it on the first one and count the amount of full flat file strokes required. Faster and saves wearing the depth guage guage Give them a quick check after. By the looks of things that poor chain wasn't cutting anywhere near its full potential.

That method doesn't work well when the cutters are different lengths.

After noticing several of my chains were not pulling good chips I took a feeler guage and a straight edge accross my teeth after using my oregon raker depth took like pictured and found out it was no where near the .025 it shows it should be.
I like the one on the Husky roller gauge.
Well said. For speed and productivity its hard to beat hand eye coordination:thumbup:
