To ensure the bar and chain
receive oil ONLY USE THE
ORIGINAL STYLE BAR with the
passage hole (A).

pulled back into the disengaged
position.
2. Remove the bar retaining nut(s)
(b). Remove chain brake cover (c)
by pulling straight out, some force
may be required.
NOTE: Discard the two plastic washers as they
are only used for shipping.
3. Using a screwdriver, turn the adjust-
ment screw (d) counterclockwise
until the tang (e) (projecting prong)
is to the end of its travel.
4. Place the slotted end of the guide
bar over the bar bolt (f). Slide guide
bar behind clutch drum (g) until the
guide bar stops.
Installing Saw Chain

making saw chain adjustments
1. Spread chain out in a loop with
cutting edges (a) pointing clockwise

of the bar.

This is normal.

Saw Chain Tension Adjustment
Proper tension of saw chain is extremely important and must be
checked before starting as well as during any cutting operation.
