MAINTAINING THE ANTI-KICKBACK
NOSE GUARD
See Figures 56 - 57.
WARNING:
Although the guide bar comes with an anti-
kickback device already installed, check the
tightness of the mounting screw before each
use.
CAUTION:
Make sure the chain has stopped before you
do any work on the saw.
Use the following instructions to tighten the mount-
ing screw of the nose guard. These are specially
hardened screws. If you cannot install the screw
tightly, replace both the screw and the anti-kickback
nose guard before further operation.
NOTE:
Do not replace the screw with an ordinary
screw. Use only identical replacement parts from
the manufacturer when replacing parts.
In addition to preventing chain contact with solid
objects at the nose of the bar, the anti-kickback
nose guard also helps keep the chain away from
abrasive surfaces, such as the ground. Keep it
on the right hand side of the bar where it will be
between the chain and the ground during flush-
with-ground cutting.
The mounting screw requires a 5/16 in. wrench (or
adjustable wrench) to achieve the recommended
torque of 35 to 45 in.lb. A torque within this range
can be achieved by using the following method.
Tighten the screw with wrench until snug.
From the snug position, tighten the screw an
additional 3/4 of a turn using a wrench.
CLEANING THE AIR FILTER

Activate chain brake.
Lift the latch to release the air filter cover.
Slide the cover out and then lift to remove from
the saw.
Remove the air filter retainer by lifting the lip on
the right side just enough to release the pins
from the slots, then raise the retainer to remove.
