GASOLINE CHAIN SAW

the chain will increase. The drive links of a correctly tensioned warm 
chain will hang approximately 1.3 mm out of the bar groove (Fig. 35).
4. Once adjusted, lift the tip of the guide bar up to check for proper 
tension (Fig. 36). If the chain is still too loose, release the tip of the guide 
bar and turn the chain- tensioning screw ½ turn clockwise. Repeat this 
process until the desired tension is achieved.
NOTE: if the chain is too tight, it will not rotate. To loosen the chain, 
turn the chain-tensioning screw ¼ turn counterclockwise. Ensure that 
the chain can be turned by hand without binding (Fig. 37). Also note the 
chain will not rotate if the chain brake is engaged.
5. Hold the tip of the guide bar up and securely tighten the bar- retaining nuts.

REMOVING/REPLACING THE GUIDE BAR AND CHAIN

Use only a low- kickback saw chian that has met kickback performance 
per ANSI B 175.1 for this saw. This fast-cutting chain provides kickback 
reduction when properly maintained.
NOTE: When replacing the guide bar and chain, use only manufacturer 
suggested replacement parts. The use of any other parts may create a 
hazard or cause product damage and will VOID the warrenty.
Removing the Guide Bar and Chain
1. Make sure the engine is off and the spark plug wire is disconnedted.
2. Make sure the chain brake is disengaged by pulling the chain brake 
lever/ front hand guard back, toward the front handle, as far as possible.
3. Remove the bar-retaining nuts with the supplied multi-purpose tool (Fig. 33)
4. Remove the guide bar cover by pulling it straight out.
NOTE: Turning the chain-tensioning screw ½-1 turn counterclockwise 
will loosen the chain and make its removal easier.
5. Push the guide bar back as far as it will go against the drive sprocket.
6. Remove the chain from the guide bar, starting at the tip and finishing 
by removing the chain from around the drive sprocket.
7. Remove the guide bar from the mounting surface.
