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.

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.
