       Raker Drags Depth gages

       Straight from a husky.
       The height difference between the position of the depth gauge
       and the tip of the tooth (depth gauge clearance) determines how
       much the cutting tooth will cut. It works much like a plane.
       When a plane is set up with minimal cutting blades, it cuts a
       very small amount of wood. The same thing happens with the saw
       chain if the distance between the depth gauge clearance lip and
       the tip of the tooth is too small. Also, it’s never good if the
       depth gauge clearance lip has been filed down too much. This
       will make the cutting tooth cut too deeply into the wood. The
       cut will then be more aggressive with high vibrations as a
       result. The risk of kickback increases and the chainsaw is
       exposed to unnecessary stress.
