63ps3. The fast chain with the safety rake

I wouldn't even call it a safety chain, its shorter than the raker is its not like the shark fin junk.

Lowvolt Ive cut with 63ps3, 63ps, 63pm , but havent cut with 63pm3. So far all around I like the 63pm the best and it stays sharper longer and cuts very well with the right sharping

OK, so I put my 7t rim kit on my 241 today and went and did a little cutting. This is the 1st mod I've done to the saw, it is still stock otherwise, not even a muffler mod.
Seems to have lost some of its torque, but gained some speed. I cant lean on it as hard as I did with the 6t spur.
It also lost another 1/2" in bar length, So now it has a 14" bar errr, had to almost bottom out the chain adjuster with the rim kit, to fit the 55DL chain back on it. Guess SAWMIKAZE was right when he told me I would have to add a link to the chain with the rim kit. Now I have to go buy a few new 56DL chains.
Short vid with the 7t rim kit, and 63pm chain, wood is dry elm,

Ya latley ive changed my way of thinking on saws other than speed!! I like saws setup for torque and chain that cuts and self feeds and stays sharp

Told ya 
..get the muffler open and you will get the torque back you lost and keep the chain speed up..the throttle response gets 200T-ish after the muffler is breathin

Im a huge RM fan..all those lots we cleared this summer made me a bigger fan of semi-chizz than i already was !..and after i file em on a good day you might mistake one for a full-chizzler anyway

What size files do yall like for pm picco and 3/8 rm? What angles do yall use?
KenJax Tree

5/32 on picco and 7/32 on 3/8 RM...Stihl recommends 13/64 which is an oddball size but i just use the 7/32 my Oregon chains use. Some guys use 7/32 then use the 13/64 after the tooth is smaller.
Just a heads up the 7/32 is gonna be tight at first because Stihl chain sits a little lower in the front of the tooth than others but once you run the file through a few times it loosens up.

Not in nearly 6 years. The chain and the files are expensive to get here.
The funny thing is MDaveLee showed me how to hand file square, and ever since I now file my full chisel the same way when they need a lot of metal removed - from the outside in. Makes folks who see me scratch their heads.OK, I got to go to the doctor today to have a look at my leg. When I come back, more vids.
