The lowest tooth on my dawg got bent somehow. Upward cuts seem fine but when I try to use the dog the saw is less than normal. Could this bent tooth effect performance?
I think it can. Using the dawg as leverage when it is bent in can cause the chain to bind on the bar and wood. You are not getting a straight cut and tweaking the chain on an angle causing a lot of friction.
Good point. I started noticing I'd have to adjust my chain really frequently too. I guess I was creating torque in the wrong way.
