I sharpened a few cross cuts about 15 years ago for the US forrest service, but haven't touched or even seen one since.  The kind I sharpen (daily) are  band saws for a hardwood lumber mill.  These are 40' long and 12" wide band saws.  A whole nuther can of worms!
 I wish I could help, but the kind you have are not my specialty :-[
Be thankfull for all you have, because no matter how bad you think it is...it can always be worse.

I've sharpened a few if you pay very close attention to how it was done before you should be able to replicate the angles and so forth. Cracker
