Musta' done something right

[AmateurSawer]

I put a new Oregon full chisel chain on my MS250 recently.After sawing some and filing once I was still noticing I had to put a light pressure on the saw to get it through the rounds.
Since it was time to touch up the chain,I decided to lower the rakers a couple strokes of the file,too.Didn't take too much off since i didn't want to stress the saw with agrabbing chain.
Tried it on a 15 16 inch hickory after sawing a little and the saw was pulling itself through the wood.I even lightened my grip on the handle to make sure it was all the saw and it kept plugging away.

Sure does make a difference when you get the rakers and teeth working together just right.

Yup, I don't get all this levering and pushing stuff.

there's generally no need of that..
