6.2. BAR AND CHAIN INSTALLATION
The chain of the chainsaw has very sharp edges.
Use protective gloves to avoid being cut.
1. Check the chain brake is not activated, by pulling
the brake lever backwards.
2. Loosen the bolts (1) and remove the chain
guard (2). Once you take off the cover, take off the
adjustment protector (7) too.
3. Slip the chain (3) around the sprocket (4) while you
adjust the chain (3) around the bar (5) and
assemble the bar (5) onto the tool. Adjust the
chain tensor, ensuring the pivot of the tensing nut
(6) coincides with the hole on the bar (5).
Pay attention to the correct position of the
chain. The chain must be placed in the
direction which is shown in the figure below:
4. Place the chain guard (2) and tighten the nuts
slightly (1).
5. Tighten the chain. The tension is correct when the
chain can be pulled upwards at the centre of the
bar to its maximum position possible and the tip of
the guiding link does not come away.
