If there are. I can't figure them out. I got new dressers and the chain holder from Madsens. I can't figure out how to make the thing work.
The slide in and out only changes the side plate sharpness. The down angle of your top plate is going to make a bigger difference in how long it stays sharp and how fast it cuts. Raising the arm or lowering the wheel allows you to make a more blunt longer lasting cutter
no its a circle. it doesnt change anythin to spin it except for the groove thickness. one side is for .050 chain and the other is for .063 on the later models. the 450 may not have the groove for the .050.
Ok I didn’t know if you just moved it forward or back a little if it would change the angles to more/less aggressive….i wish I knew someone close that had one lol I’m in Indiana and don’t know anyone whom has one!!
The 450 doesn’t have the up/down adjustment in the arm like the 451C does. But shimming the wheel down is no different than raising the cutter up, so it’s still possible to have some adjustment
Nice. That would work great
That’s how you get a date in the next town south of me. “Nice toof, wanna dance?”
I’m gonna try that.
IF anyone tried that.. it can be very finicky and repeatability can be challenging. What I learned to do is to clean the back side of the chain holder really well and when I get it positioned where I like it, then scribe a line on the backside (of the holder) with a fine tip sharpie. Then if I rotate to the other side (50-63), I can get right back to where it was. I’ve considered scratching lines with a metal scribe but haven’t had the need to yet.
That is a dandy. Those DL’s though
