ASSEMBLY OF CHAINSAW
Your chainsaw package contains the following items as illustrated in figure 1.
Assembling the guide bar and the saw chain:
CAUTION: The saw chain has very sharp edges. Always use safety gloves when assembling
the chain.
Assembly of the guide bar and chain does not require any tools.
1. Ensure the chainsaw is unplugged from the mains supply.
2. Place the chainsaw on a stable surface.
3. Pull the guard towards the front handle to check that the chain brake is
off
(Fig.2).
4. Loosen the chain cover nut (Fig.3) by turning it anti-clockwise and remove the chain cover.
5. Place the chain on the bar (Fig.4) considering the running direction of the chain. The cutting
teeth on the upper side of the bar must point in the forward direction (Fig.4).
