Multi-Sharp Replacement Round File 3/16" for MS1701E Chainsaw Sharpener

At a Glance: 3/16" / 4.8mm replacement round file for the Multi-Sharp MS1701E Chainsaw Sharpener.

The Multi-Sharp MS1703E Replacement Round File is the correct spare file for the Multi-Sharp MS1701E 3/16" Chainsaw Sharpener. Designed to restore the sharpening performance of the chainsaw sharpening kit, this 3/16" / 4.8mm round file helps maintain sharp, efficient cutting edges on compatible chainsaw chains. A sharp chainsaw chain cuts faster, cleaner and with less strain on the saw, making this replacement file a useful spare for garden users, landscapers, firewood cutters, farm maintenance teams and anyone who keeps their chainsaw ready for regular cutting work.

Replacement round file for continued MS1701E chainsaw sharpening performance

Chainsaw files wear during use and eventually lose their bite. Replacing a worn file helps keep the MS1701E sharpener working properly, allowing the user to maintain clean cutter edges and more consistent sharpening results. Always confirm that your chainsaw chain requires a 3/16" / 4.8mm round file before use.

Product highlights

  • 3/16" file size: Replacement round file for chainsaw chains requiring a 3/16" sharpening file.
  • 4.8mm diameter: Metric equivalent size for accurate file selection.
  • Designed for MS1701E: Correct replacement file for the Multi-Sharp MS1701E Chainsaw Sharpener.
  • Restores sharpening performance: Replaces a worn file so the sharpener can continue cutting cleanly.
  • Helps maintain chain efficiency: A sharp chain cuts more easily and reduces strain on the chainsaw.
  • Useful spare part: Ideal to keep with the chainsaw sharpening kit for routine chain maintenance.

Extra Information

  • This is a replacement file for the Multi-Sharp MS1701E Chainsaw Sharpener.
  • File size: 3/16" / 4.8mm.
  • Always confirm the correct file diameter for your chainsaw chain before sharpening.
  • A worn file will take longer to sharpen and may produce poor results. Replace the file when it no longer cuts effectively.
  • Clean the chainsaw chain before sharpening to remove sawdust, resin, oil and dirt from the cutters.
  • Do not use this file on chains that require a different file size.

Pro Tips

  • Mark the first cutter with a marker before sharpening so you know where you started.
  • Use the same number of file strokes on each cutter to help the chain cut evenly.
  • Replace the file once it feels smooth or stops cutting properly. A dull file makes sharpening slow and inaccurate.
  • Keep the file clean during use. Resin and metal particles can reduce cutting efficiency.
  • Always check the chainsaw chain manufacturer’s file size recommendation before fitting a replacement file.
  • If the chain cuts in a curve after sharpening, check that both sides of the chain have been sharpened evenly.

How to Use

  • Switch off the chainsaw completely and make sure it cannot start accidentally.
  • Confirm that the chainsaw chain requires a 3/16" / 4.8mm round file.
  • Remove the worn file from the MS1701E Chainsaw Sharpener according to the sharpener instructions.
  • Fit the new MS1703E replacement file securely into the sharpener.
  • Secure the chainsaw on a stable surface before sharpening.
  • Position the sharpener correctly on the chain cutter, following the original cutter angle.
  • Sharpen with smooth, even strokes, working from the inside of the cutter toward the outside.
  • Use the same number of strokes on each cutter for consistent sharpening.
  • Clean the chain, check chain tension and lubricate the chain before returning the saw to use.

Features

  • Replacement round file: Purpose-made spare file for the compatible Multi-Sharp chainsaw sharpening kit.
  • 3/16" / 4.8mm size: Suitable for chains that specify this round file diameter.
  • MS1701E compatibility: Designed for use with the Multi-Sharp MS1701E Chainsaw Sharpener.
  • Chainsaw cutter sharpening: Used to sharpen the curved cutting edge of compatible chainsaw chain cutters.
  • Routine maintenance part: Replaces the file when the original becomes worn or less effective.

Benefits

  • Maintains sharp cutting performance: Helps keep chainsaw cutters sharp for faster, cleaner cutting.
  • Extends sharpener life: Replacing the file keeps the MS1701E sharpener useful for ongoing chain maintenance.
  • Improves cutting control: A sharp chain cuts with less effort and helps reduce dragging through timber.
  • Cost-effective maintenance: Replacing the file is more economical than replacing the full sharpener kit.
  • Convenient spare: Useful to keep on hand for regular chainsaw users who sharpen often.

Application

  • Replacing the worn round file in the Multi-Sharp MS1701E Chainsaw Sharpener.
  • Sharpening compatible chainsaw chain cutters.
  • Routine chainsaw chain maintenance.
  • Touching up chains between cutting sessions.
  • Garden, landscaping, farming, firewood and general outdoor maintenance use.
  • Suitable for chainsaw chains that require a 3/16" / 4.8mm round file.

Safety

  • Wear eye protection and gloves when sharpening or handling a chainsaw chain.
  • Make sure the chainsaw is switched off and cannot start accidentally before sharpening.
  • For electric or cordless chainsaws, unplug the saw or remove the battery before maintenance.
  • For petrol chainsaws, ensure the engine is off and cool before sharpening.
  • Secure the chainsaw properly before filing to prevent movement.
  • Keep fingers clear of sharp chain cutters and the file during sharpening.
  • Use only the correct file size for the chain. Incorrect file size can reduce cutting performance and safety.
