I currently have a green link safety chain that came with the saw I purchased used. Previous owner hit something that took out the point on every tooth on right side. In order to get that tip back on each tooth I needed to dig in pretty deep and not as much on the left side, did it all with a 13/64 file by hand. Probably about 20 strokes or more on each right side tooth and only about 5 on left. I still need to cut down the rakers to .30
I don't know much about chains and would like to know what chain would make this saw cut the fastest. I want to keep it 18" although I've read some use this model with 25" but I have the 440 for that task and don't need another 20" saw.
I see there is a different chain on fleebay that is different then the one I have, its a Stihl 18" Full Chisel Aggressive Saw Chain 33RSC-66. Would this chain be the best cutter for the saw?
Is there another brand that would do a better job then the one I have or should I stick with stihl? I'm only using it to cut firewood that is mostly maple, oak, poplar, ash mix
Thanks for your opinions.
