[QUOTE="Beefie, post: 1884214, member: 22830"] Well it sounds like you learned your lesson on the timberjack. Here is one trick I have found to be helpful. When you no you are close to the timberjack make your cut 1/2 to 3/4 of the way thru and stop , put the log on the ground with the cut side down and then finish your cut. That way you have no risk of wrecking your chain ,timberjack, or worse yet having kickback occur. Sharpening your chain is a good way of checking other stuff on the saw. Like seeing if your bar is wearing unevenly, checking for burrs on the bar , checking that your groove in your bar hasn't become to tight. etc... Hope this helps Beefie [/QUOTE]
