STORINg THE PRODUCT

and must be attached very carefully due to the sharp
teeth on the saw chain. This is best done by grasping the
scabbard at one end, in the center portion of the scab-
bard, and carefully sliding it over the chain as shown. Use
caution to avoid the sharp teeth of the chain.
NOTE: The saw chain is very sharp. Always wear protec-
tive gloves when handling the chain.

hanger cap over end of the lower end attachment shaft.
Slightly rotate the cap from side to side until the button
locks into place.
