- Due to a little bit of confusion about the placement and positioning of the Husqvarna Depth Gauge tool, I thought another short video might clear up the questions. Thank you so much to those who asked the question about placement. That's the kind of feedback that gets things done! I love you folks. You're the reason I do this - truth!

Wow! I have 36 more days of this. I can do it! Especially if y'all become cheerleaders for me. I need you to push me. Don't let me become a slacker! I'm counting on you! Thanks for watching, friends!
That’s it, a close up of what you need know… how to use it, not a 10 minute diatribe of what depth gauges are and a video shot from the other side of the road.
Thank you so much. Great video!!
Best explanation of this on TH-cam! Hands down.
Thanks for the kind comments my friend!
Perfect. Thanks a bunch. That was a very helpful video. Trying to take my sharpening to the next level and stepping into the realm of rakers. Bought the tool but couldn't figure out the proper way to use it. Thanks again.
finally, someone showed me how to use this tool properly!
THANK YOU. I have seen a million videos on how to adjust depth, but this is the only video that so carefully explains how to use the gauge. That cleared up a ton of confusion.
I'm really happy to hear that I was able to help you! Thank you so much for the positive and kind feedback!
Thank you! I’ve tried to use the gauge with very little good instruction. Your video was very helpful, thanks again
I struggled with that gauge for a long time before I finally figured it out. Thanks for the feedback!
I'm glad you cleared that up Wayne! I've been doing it wrong. Or at least I think I have. I always get the raker in the window and in the slot, but probably more by accident LOL Love you. Peace.
It was you and @moofdogg mike who asked the right question. I wasn't paying much attention to how the tail end of that tool was positioned. Thanks for pointing it out! Love you lots, Angie!
Thank you for explaining this tool, I’ve got one and am determined to use it. I will spread the love as always. “Did I say mother yet “ 😂
Haha! Thanks for the kind words!
Really helpful. The C83 I just bought had the same situation where the raker was way above the depth gauge. As a newbie this video is great because it lets me know that I'm not crazy for thinking something was off with the way it was cutting!
I have been there. What a difference it makes when you understand the engineering behind the chain. Thanks for the feed back! Stay kind.
Nice video Mr Wayne, u were very helpful and informative, I just bought this guide and I didn t have a clue on how to use it, and to tell u the truth I searched a long time finding this video, thanks again.Send my greetings from Crete, Greece, be well
Thank you for the kind words, Loukas! I had the same problem when I first bought my guide. I never did a find a helpful video, so that’s why I posted this video. It’s great to have a friend in Greece! Stay kind, healthy and strong my friend!
Guys that middle little slot is for the chains that has 2 rakers, the safety chains! On a normal chain raker must sit at right or at left at the big window
@kostasfrangos3354
Lol "the 2nd set of rakers!" 😂😂😂😂😂 Omg that's awesome, I truly needed that, thank you!
Wait- ohh noo wait - you're not kidding, are you? Oh FML. Well that's okay! I'll just laugh at you, instead of with you. And fight like hell with my need to be a nicer person who helps to educate others. Gdmnit!! I was enjoying that laugh! I thought you were being funny about that - the bumper drive link being another raker and all- but nope you were being serious. Sheeeit.... Well, it's NOT!! A Cutting Tooth has 7 parts. Heel, Toe. That's where the rivets attach the drive link to the cutters. upwards, there's the gullet. Then the side plate. Then we come to the top plate, and the very important cutting corner! Last but not least, down and across the way, we have the antidotal (still have just the 1 though pal) Raker/Depth gauge/Drag/Although drag? It's really not a drag It's also not really a rake- depth is the only thing that is accurate - as it literally determines the amount of vertical depth from the top plate down into the gullet is used to cut. Too little and it is not efficient. Too much and dang if it's not a bit hungry, not to mention - in hardwood too much of the tooth down in the wood pulling the saw in, vibrating the hell outta your hands like a 60lb jack hammer laying down iron and spiking the ties- setting forns to pour concrete? No? K well how about railroad ties into the tracks? No, I didn't work on the railway all the freaking live long day- just a summer season at the Ski resort we built a train that went from their Gondola lift to their Quad or something else - started as tree service - then I got the bid on the site work- and then the bid on the tracks was open - sourced the iron and ties, all the crush and then ¾" to 1½" stone for layering the ties, and then going back through with the damn 60lb jack hammer and chinking the rock down in under around each rail and tie it sat on - well that's what a saw with the snot of a race horse and the sharpening skills on the 1 depth gauge per link, per chain, of a rookie can feel like.
Anyway, Bumper Drive Links are just that, a upward curve off of the otherwise flat top side of the drive link, and they are on some green chains that meet requirements for low kickback consideration. Yellow birch, yellow bananas, Yellowstone national park - ok I'm out of cool yellow things - The Sun -: that's actually not yellow - it's a very violent eruption of different gases burning so hot they appear to be orange or yellow at times from the distance between it and the Earth. So yep back to the drawing board. But seriously, all jokes and self deprecating humor aside - do not file the the drive link - it's not part of the cutter and does not = the same thing or even the same position on all cutters. Leave the bumpers alone!!! Omgosh. Went from funny as F*** to wtf is wrong with you.
What wrong with Me? Well to start with, A LOT- more than we've got time to get into here. I definitely can't get any of my therapists on zoom or anything on a Sunday morning - and my Vet - what? Who can afford a human doctor when you have to pay for a psychiatrist? Just kidding! OMG ppl believe everything they see on TH-cam...
Thank you so much! I have been wondering about this since I began filing my first saw and now I have the answer I was looking for! Loved the video! 👍😁
You're the only one I've found that explains the reason for "hard" and "soft" on these depth gauge tools and how those two settings work. The biggest potential problem for the beginner is filing too aggressively and grinding away metal from the tool. Eventually you'll know when the rakers need to be lowered. The chain is sharp but the sawdust is fine. Or, suddenly your chain acts like it has wheels on it. The chainsaw speeds up and doesn't cut, etc..
Well said Dale. Many people have trouble diagnosing problem like that. It all comes with time on the saw. It also helps to know people who understand how all the pieces work together and are willing to teach others. Thank you for your comment sir! Stay kind!
Go Wayne go! Looks good to me.
That was a fun set of videos! Weather getting better. Hope to see you soon!
And to an angle. Thanx. Keep usin stihl. To hungry tho. Thanx bro
Paldies, beidzot kāds parāda visu tuvumā! 👍
Es nerunāju latviski, bet mēģināšu. Paldies par jauko komentāru mans draugs! Priecājos, ka noderēja. I hope i didn't say something terrible🫣🤭
@@WaynePolcin 👍

@@WaynePolcin lol. I'm glad. Off to work shortly for me. Atleast it's Friday now. Lol
@@proteuspatrick7958 hey buddy👍
Nailed it. Tks
Hello Wayne, what are the clearances for the Hard And Soft wood settings?
Thanks for the clarification WP , then ya can let us in on that secret helicopter landing pad on that cabin roof 😉. I won’t tell anyone. Have a good one and hey Suz the Q.
Thanks for asking the right questions, buddy! Secret landing pad...HAHAHA! You know how to get me to bust a gut!
So if i'm using it on a skip tooth chain it still works, doesn't need to touch the back of the cutter in front of it.
Yes. It still works as long as it’s 3/8” pitch.
Hi Wayne, nice presentation. I have a stihl 021 with an oregon S55 low profile chain and wonder if this husqvarna guage tool will work with it? I've used the oregon tool but it sounds like this gauge would do a better job but don't know if it will work on low profile chains as well. Thanks
Take a look at the “mini” variation from Husqvarna: www.husqvarna.com/us/filing-equipment/depth-gauges/?article=596285104
Select the “Select Variant” link when you get to the website.
Tanks man
You're welcome!
Thanks for the vid! Does it change on different brands of chains! I run Stihl and Oregon! In Idaho! Soft wood! First, Larch, Pine! Thanks
The Husqvarna depth gauge tool is made for 3/8” pitch chain only. Brand does not matter. There are two positions on the tool - one for soft wood, the other for hard. If you have “low profile” chain, like a PICCO or Pixel chain, the there is another tool for setting the depth gauges on those chains. You can find the tool on Husqvarna's website. Click here www.husqvarna.com/us/filing-equipment/depth-gauges/ and then select "view all" next to "Select Variant". Select the option you need there. Thanks for the feedback. Stay kind!
If lookin down on chain. It sits to the side to make file. Is that normal?
That was pretty clear to me
That's what I was aiming for. Thanks, Don!
Nice- thanks!
You’re welcome. Thanks for the feedback!
Is there a part number for this tool? Death rakers are a pain for me now. I want a good death gauge
I bought mine at a local Husqvarna dealership. I have an Amazon link in the description of this video th-cam.com/video/KYA8BntU83o/w-d-xo.html
What kind of raker gage is that, where it available?
You can get them at any Husqvarna dealership. Make sure to get the size that matches your chain pitch. Usually that would be a 3/8” pitch. It’s a little pricey, but here’s the Amazon link: Husqvarna 5056981-01N Depth Gauge, 3/8", 73LP, 73VL (H42) a.co/d/aN0IjH1. You might be able to find a better price by shopping around.
Thank you
is the Depth Gauge slot big enough for safety chains
Yes. It should work for any chain with the same sprocket pitch.
will this depth gauge work with low profile chain (3/8 pitch)
Says hard n soft. Its not straight on the chain. What am i doin wrong bro.?
GOOD INF, I HAVE THE SAME GAUGE
This is the one that came in the care package from Andre (bobe8888). It's a nice, compact little tool. A little tricky to get the hang of, but once you get it, it works well.
Bro cant keep my mouth shut. Im in aus n hardwood. Have stihl gauge, easy bt takes to much. The husky one i brought i couldnt set it right without bein sideways alot. Why!
Mines sits bad
Sorry bro' will stick something under stihl gauge take mil less. But yer its fuked me
always more ways to skin a cat than filling a Chain , ....in theory.
