Lay out the saw chain in a loop and straighten any
kinks. The cutters should face in the direction of chain

Place the chain drive links into the bar groove as shown
in figure 46.

8.

Position the chain so there is a loop at the back of
the bar.

9.

Hold the chain in position on the bar and place the loop
round the sprocket.

10.

Fit the bar flush against the mounting surface so that
the bar studs are in the long slot of the bar.

NOTE:

 When placing the bar on the bar studs, ensure

that the adjusting pin is in the chain tension pin hole.
