I checked, it is 25 on the cutter, my mistake. I also think it is H30, this other chain, because it has chisel shape, SP33G seems to be some fancier type, X-CUT, semi-chisel.
I don't know why this have to be so painful, to simply determine what exactly chain is on the saw, and if the sharpening tool is correct.
Thanks again, Eugene.

Thanks, but I am sorry, this doesn't really answer my question. The bar/chain is .325", 50 mils, DL66. It is pixel, has sign on it, but I am still not sure if this is H30 chain, or SP33G? The SP33G I don't even see on Husqvarna chain table. These two chains have all the parameters identical, except for cutting angle (80 degrees, vs 85 degrees, and the tooth height (30 mils vs 25 mils). And each chain needs different sharpening tool, per User Manual. The only marking on the chain links I see is number 22 stamped on the cutting teeth and number 30 on the running links. If I was going to guess, this 30 refers to H30, does it? But also there is H22 chain, semi-chisel, with all the same parameters as H30. Do you see my confusion now?
It is interesting to me that in two stores that sell Husqvarna I spoke to "chainsaw experts", they were confused with this, and couldn't give the straight answer, just a lot of usual generic hand-waiving, or at best claiming how they think it doesn't matter. Which is, in my opinion, BS. They didn't even have anyone to ask that question. It is possible the they are all Stihl guys, not knowing much about Husqvarna, but I am not sure about that.
Thanks anyway.
