Echo CS-400 S/N: C09011001001 - C09011999999 Chain Types & ConfigurationsChain saw chain comes in many different
configurations from professional chisel chain [square tooth] to
semi-chisel [round tooth] chain to safety chain saw chain for the
occasional user. Echo CS-400 S/N: C09011001001 - C09011999999 Chain saw chain comes in many combinations to
include full chisel chain, semi chisel chain, full skip chain,

Every chain must be driven to perform
work. On the bottom of every Echo CS-400 S/N: C09011001001 - C09011999999 chain there are drive links that are
v-shaped. The drive links ride into the bar groove to guide the
chain in the cut.
The cutter has several different parts.
First, there is a top plate which is the top of the cutter and is
the leading edge of the cutter tooth. There are both left and right
cutters that alternate from left to right and left again. Next, the
depth gauge controls how deep the cutter tooth cuts. There is also a
gullet which funnels the wood chips away underneath the cutter and
ejects them when the chain reaches the sprocket. The toe of the Echo CS-400 S/N: C09011001001 - C09011999999 chain cutter rides on the bar groove and is on the front bottom of the
cutter. Another toe on the bottom rear of the cutter can become
worn as the tooth rocks when cutting the wood fibers. Finally, there
are rivet holes where the bearing rivet rides.
The last part of the Echo CS-400 S/N: C09011001001 - C09011999999 chain is the tie
strap that is opposite the cutter tooth. This strap helps to connect
the chain together. Echo CS-400 S/N: C09011001001 - C09011999999 Chain Maintenance

General things to know about different
types of Echo CS-400 S/N: C09011001001 - C09011999999 chain and for cutting conditions:
Skip tooth chain is generally used for
longer bars sized 24�?? and up. Skip tooth chain is usually for the
professional and has more kick back tendencies.
Ripping chain is designed to cut with
the grain of the wood and not against it, the chain is sharpened
either 10 or 15 degrees and is intended for saw mills.
Semi-chisel chain [round tooth] is one
the most overlooked chains on the market. The round cutter is more
forgiving in dirty wood conditions when compared to the chisel cutter
chain. This type of Echo CS-400 S/N: C09011001001 - C09011999999 chain cuts a little slower but stays sharper longer than
chisel chain.
Chisel chain is by far the fastest
cutting chain available for chain saws, with its square teeth, it
cuts faster than the semi chisel round tooth chain. However, Echo CS-400 S/N: C09011001001 - C09011999999 chisel
chain doesn�??t perform well in dirty conditions. Once the points
get dull, chain cutting performance decreases significantly.

manufacturer to find and the bar and chain information for your model
number.
