Quick Start Guide

Read before continuing

695GC / 695F4

•  Loosen side cover nut and remove side cover.

•  Place bar onto stud and engage alignment block.

•  Mount the diamond chain on the guidebar starting at the drive 

sprocket and continue over the guidebar nose.

  NOTE: FORCE4 requires rim to be pulled outward for chain 

installation.

•  Install the side cover and ensure chain adjustment pin engages hole 

in bar. 

•  Do not fully tighten side cover nut until after chain is properly 

tensioned. 

•  Make sure all the drive links are inside the guide bar groove then lift 

the bar nose and tension the chain by turning the screw clockwise.

ASSEMBLING THE SAW

•  Before cutting, check for proper tension by pulling the chain around 

the bar by hand. If you cannot easily pull by hand, the chain is too 
tight and needs to be loosened slightly.

  CAUTION: Be aware that guidebar rails may develop sharp edges 

over time so always pull the diamond chain by the diamond 
segments.
