What is the best file to use with this jig? I have a .325 in, pitch Pro-Guard chain.

best check with Oregon for the correct file size. They spec at least 2 different diameter files for .325 pitch chains

A 4.5mm / 5/32" round file will work, but as always, check with your dealer... there are many .325 pro-guard chains from Oregon.

I returned mine as it was too clunky and my Oregon was too small for it, but to answer yr question I should clip it to the clubs bad with the carabiner clip - unless you want to trace yr tracks into the rough! Good luck

Call Oregon, they'll be glad to help. That's what I did to make sure I got the right one for my saw. It's a great system, although initially a little expensive. I've been using it for a few weeks and it's worth the money. A 5 or 10 second touch up and the chain stays sharp. And that's cutting really well seasoned (standing dead) oak which can dull a chain fast.

This is the chain description I found to have made up or cross reference .Direct Replacement for Greenworks 8" Chain Saws*.050 gauge chain*3/8" pitch*33 drive linksHere is where you can order it for $15http://www.powerequipmentdirect.com/GreenWorks-29072/p10365.html

If you plan on buying the cut-off guard get the 5" so it doesn't void the warranty since it is made for it (Makita will not advise you to use the cut off guard/wheels with the 4.5"). Otherwise get whatever your local supplier stocks the most/cheapest discs/wheels etc... for. The 4.5" and 5" are identical though (all the same internal part #'s).

I have a 450 Rancher. I checked the specs on both your saw and mine on the Husquvarna site and they both have the same .325 pitch and use the same 20 inch bar length. My guess that it would work fine. The great thing about Amazon is if it doesn't work they are great about returns. Don't destroy the packaging when you take the new chain out just in case it doesn't work.

That is exactly what I used it for. I broke the old p.o.s. 520 chain and installed my shiny new DID 530 chain on my old Suzuki Katana. As long as you don't apply ogre force to the riveting part and break the pin like other people have. I actually had a spare master link and riveted that 1st to make sure I got it right, then I installed the chain and its master link without a hitch. That was 2k miles ago. Good luck and ride safe!

.325 is the length of the chain links, you need to determine how the cutters were ground, that will tell you what size file or burr to get.

Not so good for that. I would have to see your saw blade to answer properly but I have my doubts. As for the 4mm chainsaw, the "round file" part is tapered too much and would distort the chain .... to my thinking. I am sure it would help out in a pinch for just one time or so but it is not designed for chain saws.

I've found two that work. I'm pretty stoked! I'm getting out a Sharpie to mark those bad boys! You have to either remove the plastic thingie on the plunge base or get one longer screw to make it work. I haven't broken anything, but one of the holes is not backed by metal - be careful not to over tighten it because you will break the jig. The other hole is backed by a metal shelf - you can be a bit more aggressive with it. It also seems to work with the smaller Jasper 400 jig.

What files work best? If you are referring to the D72 Oregon chain that I see in Home Depot, this is 3/8" pitch, semi-chisel, with 72 links. It fits some 20" bars. Use a 7/32" round file. This is stated on a sort of folded tap on the covering cardboard label.I like the Pferd 17068--a smooth cut 7/32 file that gives very fast cutting chain, but other 7/32" round files will work.Note, if you have filed the cutter length down to near the end of its useful life, a 3/16" file may fit better at this final stage. This is because for 3/8" chain the cutter gets lower by about 0.05" from new chain to the end of its usable length. Height drops about 1:6 with length change. Usable length is about 0.3" for most 3/8" change.Hope this helps. What files work best?

The 1st order I placed was for the Oregon 541221 and that was the wrong one. After talking to Amazon service rep, she sent me Oregon 541655 and this was the right one. Make sure you check your sprocket teeth on your saw (ms290) and be sure it uses the low profile 3/8" pitch with .050"guage. Your owners book should tell you that info. My saw is the stihl 010 16" bar. It's an old one. This Oregon works very good on this saw. I also own a Stihl farm Boss 18" but would not put a Oregon on this one. I have a spare chain and sharpen the chain with the correct file I got from the Stihl dealer. Another suggestion-check with Oregon Company for the correct bar and chain kit for your saw.

Count the links on your existing chain. The links are the funny looking things that go into the bar. Get a chain with the same count. This listing if for a 52 link chain. The manual for your chainsaw calls for a Craftman part # 51192 Looking that up they substituted 91PX045G which shows a 45 link chain Oregon 91PX045G 45 Drive Link Chamfer Chisel Xtra Guard 3/8-Inch Pitch Low Kickback Saw Chain Again count the links to be sure. Good luck

Perhpas, but you need the spindle that these slide onto to clamp into the chuck. Found one on Amazon after some searching.

I don't have this specific jig, but I have purchased bits for other PC jigs at http://routerbitworld.com

I would definitely use a jig to keep your angle correct, but the 3/16 seems very small. Refer to your owners manual for the correct file size, and angle for your saw.

It works fine. I have a Stihl 390 and I particularly like the jig. Like you said, "as long as the pitch is correct".
