3.  Remove the bar and chain from the mounting surface  

(Fig. 6).

4.  Remove the old chain from the bar.
5.  Lay out the new saw chain in a loop and straighten any 

kinks. THE SHARP SIDE OF THE TEETH MUST FACE 

AWAY FROM YOU IN THE DIRECTION OF THE CHAIN 

ROTATION INDICATED ON THE GUIDE BAR 

. If 

the teeth face backwards, turn the loop over (Fig. 7).

6.  Starting at the tip, mount the chain drive links into the  

bar groove, leaving a loop at the back of the bar. The 

chain will loosely fit until it is placed on the sprocket 

 

(Figs. 8 – 9).

  NOTE: Make certain of the direction of the chain 

If the chain is mounted backwards, the saw will vibrate 

abnormally and will not cut.

7.  Hold the chain in position on the bar and place the loop 

around the sprocket. 

Fit the bar flush against the mounting 

surface so that the bar studs are in the long slot of the bar 

and the adjusting pin is in the chain tension pin hole  

(Fig. 10).
