    Question:
    Hello , I would Like to Know How to Sharpen The Brush Blade for the 345FR :OEM Saw blade Scarlett 200-22 , I've Look All over The Husqvarna site and Found Nothing ? I would Have Thought That they Had A Vidieo or Something To Explain How To Some Place ??? Or Even The File & Gauge to Sharpen it ?? Did I Look in The Wrong Place ???

    Thanks

      Hello, I bought a similar saw (343 FR) a couple years ago and love it, but it does make me aware of my age!!

      here is the guage, setting tool, file guide I use     505 69 81-20    you can get your dealer to get one or maybe find it elsewhere...

      As far as sharpening, in the woods I'll lop off   a 3 - 4 "  stem at about  3 ' off the ground near my 'fuel station'  and make an angeled (downward

      sloping) notch to rest and hold the main tube giving me a comfortable working height to file, I set when needed 5 or 6 filings,

      The filing is pretty straight forward, instructions will come with the tool, but do try to hold it square to the blade and rest the proper side againse the

      top of the cutter pushing at the 15 degree angle.  good luck
