HOW TO USE HARBOR FREIGHT CHAINSAW SHARPENER - Sharpen Your Own Chainsaw For Less Than $25
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ก.ค. 2024
- In this video I show you how to setup and use the Harbor Freight Chainsaw Sharpener to sharpen our own chainsaw for less than $25! I’ve found this inexpensive Chicago Electric Chainsaw sharpener from Harbor Freight Tools works great at sharpening my dull chainsaw blades quickly and easily to sharpen my chain. The best part is you can keep using it to sharpen your chainsaw instead of going to a hardware store that offers sharpening services that usually charges $10-15 per chain.
This electric chain saw sharpener also reduces the amount of time you’ll need to spend sharpening so you can get back to cutting. Maintaining sharp chain blades will give you effortless cutting and make your chainsaw seem like its new again.
I give you my best tips on setting up this chainsaw sharpener, making easy adjustments and giving you a quick tutorial on how to use this affordable tool. I also give you my overall review on purchasing and using this chainsaw sharpener.

Does it sharpen both 5/32 and 7/32 teeth or do you need 2 wheel sizes?
The more times you sharpen a chain, the longer/taller the rakers get. Eventually you have to file the rakers. You might include checking raker height and filing as an update.
You’re a natural instructor/teacher! I literally can’t say anything negative about this video. Not too short, not too long. No fillers but nothing left out. Great job and thank you!
Wow, thank you!
This video was exactly what I wanted to see, thank you for taking the time to film it and put it out there. I just bought this sharpener and now I don't have to waste any time figuring out how to set it up and use it; I can get straight to sharpening my chains.
Mount it to a block of 2x4 and then you can just mount it into a bench vise
Very well-made video. The close-ups really help. Most instructive. Thank you. It depends a lot on the season but this summer used my chainsaws just about every day
Thanks so much! Thanks for watching!
Ive used mine about a week and just wanted to confirm I was on the right track, and I sure am! Thank you for beig so clear, your instruction is just as easy yo follow as the tool is easy to use. It is a game changer
Thank you so much! After i repaired the stop cable, it disconnected from the screw and gorilla gel super glue worked perfectly, this works great with your instructions. Very much appreciated! My chains are so sharp finally!
Bought one at a discount (open box) two years ago and never used it. After watching your, very detailed and clear video, I’ve decided to get it out and mount it to my work bench. I’ve just started cutting firewood for my new wood furnace and I’m sure I’ll need it. Thanks very much for the info!👍
I just purchased this same sharpener and you've made learning how to use it quite simple, thank you very much. I saw Tinker at the 8:17 mark.
Thank you for this. Picked one up new in box at a yard sale. Now I can get right to work and get my saw back up to snuff.
I just purchased this same sharpener and you've made learning how to use it quite simple, thank you very much
Glad I could help!
Thanks for sorting me out on how to use this machine. You provided detailed setup info I failed to get from other TH-cam sources. I primarily use my Stihl 251* for cutting 5 cord of firewood per year, and also for property maintenance and an occasional piece of chainsaw furniture.
You're welcome! I'm glad the video was helpful! How do you like you stihl 251? Would you recommend it? I've done a review on EGO's lithium battery pole saw that I've been impressed with, but I'm always looking at options for a great chainsaw.
Hey Jeff,
Great job with the video. After watching it, there was nothing left to learn about the sharpener. The close ups were very helpful and the video was just the right length. Thanks!
I'm really glad I found your video. My father in law recently bought this exact brand and didn't know how to use it.
Great video man! I got exactly what I cane here for! Your video was detailed correctly, not too much duration, you were straight to the point and your video was edited and filmed with all the desirable characteristics!!!! :D
Very well-made video. I learn a lot from the video! The close-ups really help.
Awesome, thank you!
I'm late to the show here, but thank you! I just bought this and struggled getting it setup right. Your close up shots really helped!
Thank you! I now know how to set up my grinding machine! Thank you for taking the time to make and post this video, it makes the interweb thingy an immensely useful resource!
You are welcome! I'm glad the video was helpful!
I just picked this up. Have yet to use it yet but looks easy to use and will help me process Firewood alot faster as I won't have to wait on a shop to do them for me which takes a couple days to get em back. I cut wood everyday and run a MS391 and a MS271 farm boss. Also nice mower I got the same one.
The sharpener works like a charm! Never needed one till we moved a year ago to a wooded lot and it’s been used multiple times with a few chains. So easy to use. Just have to figure out how often to replace the wheel.
Good video. I have this sharpener. You have taught me how to get started with it. Thanks.
Fine video! Excellent camera angles and close ups. Absolutely confident in my ability to get this tool set up properly now.
You can do it!
Robot was at 8:20
I just got this saw and really appreciate being as thorough like you were. Now going to try and not cut my fingers off! Cheers!
What a great video thank you you explained this process perfectly and thoroughly, looks like I'm heading to harbor freight to pick one of these up.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks, very helpful. I bought this sharpener but had no idea how to use it.
Great video on how to use the Harbor Freight chainsaw sharpener! Informative, good tips & well presented! You helped me make up my mind in buying it after all!. Thank you Jeff! God bless.
Glad I could help!
The video was very well done. Very good close-ups. Very well put together. My families been cutting wood for generations and some still call them tooth some call them blades. Don’t listen to the people that nitpick
Thanks Mark! I appreciate your comments! Thanks for watching!
Excellent vid bro, went through it all thoroughly and it wasn't too long. Good job!
Glad to hear it was helpful, thanks so much for watching!
Thank you so much for the instruction. I just bought the very same on.
Great demonstration, I have the same pole saw and will buy the HF sharpener thank you!
Nice video. Thanks! I’m going to probably pick one up.
I could not figure this weird product out and gave up... now I actually see how it works thank you!
My mistake was the back adjustment for height/depth. It seems that most of it is common sense but it's still nice to go step by step. So many 'training' videos skip past the basics that some of us fail to see or get stuck on. Thank you.
I'm glad my video helped! Thanks for watching Tom!
Great video. Very thorough. Thank you.
Great detailed to the point video
I just bought one - works very well and very easily. Once you got it set up - you're good to go. It's not a precision made instrument, but it gets the job done..
Glad to hear that you are enjoying it! Thanks so much for watching!
Awesome tutorial. Thank you so much!
You're welcome! I'm glad the video was helpful.
Took out all confusion. Thanks!
I'm glad the video was helpful! Thanks so much for watching
Jeff thank you very much for the video. You provided a very informative and educational video. I am planning on buying the EGO pole saw to ad to my EGO collection.
You are welcome! Thanks so much for watching! I'm glad the video was informative and helpful! The pole saw is great, I've been very happy with EGO products. I've done reviews on several of their products on my channel including the pole saw. Be sure to check them out!
@@TinkerForward
I will definitely check out your videos. Take care.
Excellent demonstration!
Great video. Great presentation. It really helped me a lot. Thanks.
Awesome! Thanks!
Great job of tutorial. Thank you.
Tinker was at 8:18. Glad I came across this video. Thanks.
Great video ! Just what I needed👍
Very great instruction video! Very thorough.
Thank you very much.
Excelente vídeo, you you explain everything very well, i learned a lot thank you 👍🏻👏🏻
Was thinking about picking this up, thanks for the video!
You're welcome!
Well Done! Thank You!
Excellent demo!
told me everything i need to know, i think i will buy one thank you
Jeff, I really wish TH-cam gave us the opportunity to click on the Like Button up to ten times instead of just once. You would definitely get a 10! If you are not in a training department, you definitely should be. I don't think I have seen clearer or more organized instructions anywhere on TH-cam. This video is excellent. Thank You Sir!
Thanks so much Thomas for the comments! I'm glad the video was helpful!
Very helpful, thank you 💪
Well if anything, you convinced me this is a cost effective and practical tool to get.
I have the older (orange) model. I noted how the chain moves when you squeeze the lock handle. This appears to make the system grind too much off of the chain. I rarely throw that many sparks when I sharpen. Unless I hit a rock or metal I only graze the chain enough to basically hone the chain and not sharpen it. I also believe that grinding too much too fast will alter the metal and its temper and perhaps soften it making the chain go dull faster. This method seems to have worked extremely well over the past 15 years of ownership. It is a great and cheap way of keeping my saws cutting properly.
Finally cleared off the old table and unboxed mine.... very instructive and attention to detail....now I just have to REMOUNT mine...I installed it to a 2x4 and mounted that to the table. I have a12' 8" Electric Pole Saw, a Ryobi 6' 10" Pole Saw, a Dewalt 12" Brushless, a Greenworks 16" and a Husqvarna 20" Ranch. It's been non stop for almost 2 years and I have about 10 chains to freshen up. Your little tech dude appeared at 8:17-8:18 I think....Thanx for helping me save money on my chains this year...

Very helpful thanks
Great Field Kit
You did a great job explaining I like that
Great video, thanks.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Are used to heat my house with wood. I took the word for about seven years. Needless to say I went through many chains. I always paid somebody to sharpen my chains. It’s been about five years since. I got my chainsaw the other day to cut down some mailbox posts. My first cut I had a nail And doubled the blade. I have a sharpener like yours but I’ve never used it before. That’s why I was checking out your video, so I can sharpen my own chain.
Great video, thank you!
My pleasure!
Thanks Crystal clear.
Nice video; simple to understand; well done. No pop-up robot. Use Stihl MS 251 C-BE saw daily. Video is short & to the point. No excess BS. Thank you.
Wake up...robot was @ 8:18
Thank you Sir 💥
8:20 is when I saw Tinker. Excellent video, just what I was looking for.

GR8 VIDEO CLIP.
Greetings from North Texas
Hello there! Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice! Thanks.
Summerfest shirt......nice!!!! Thanks for the video!!!
Summerfest rocks! You are welcome!
Awesome video.
8:20 🤖. Just bought this at Harbor freight. This vid was helpful. Thanks
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!
Good teacher
8:17 on the robot. Now I know how to use this chainsaw sharpener. Great video, TY!
10:46 pm on Nov. 9th, 2022 Neat video Thank you.
Do I need to then do the depth gauge filing after every sharpening? Also how many times should a chain be Redhat owned?
Nice review. Would like to see a really dull blade cutting wood then sharpening it then cut again for a actual comparison
The sharpener is complicated and the instructions are confusing, to say the least. This video was very helpful. Thanks!!
