4. Slide the Chain in the slot around the Guide Bar.
Ensure the Chain is in correct running direction by
comparing it to the chain icon on the Guide Bar, or
referring to the chain direction symbol found on the
saw body. (See Fig. A2)
5. Fit the Chain onto the Drive Sprocket, so that the
Fastening Bar Bolt and the Bar Locating Tab on the
Bar Pad fit into the keyway of the opening on the
Guide Bar. (See Fig. B1, B2)
6. Assure all parts are seated properly. Make sure the
1
drive links are fully seated in the Drive Sprocket (See
Fig. C1), avoiding a kink as shown in Fig. C2. If kink
1
occurs, pick up the Chain at the Guide Bar just ahead
of the kink and then pull the kink out.
1
NOTE: Chain should rotate freely and be free of kinks.
7. Fit the Chain Cover and tighten the Chain Cover by
1
turning the Housing-Cover Knob clockwise until it is
tight. (See Fig. D)
/
WARNING: The Chain is not yet tensioned.
/
Tensioning the Chain applies as described under
"TENSIONING CHAIN". The Chain now needs to be
/
inspected to make sure it is properly tensioned.
TENSIONING CHAIN (See Fig. E1, E2, E3)
NOTE: New saw chains will stretch. Check the chain
tension frequently when first used and tighten when the
Chain becomes loose around the Guide Bar.
WARNING:
• Removing the battery pack before adjusting
saw chain tension.
• Cutting edges on chain are sharp. Use protective
gloves when handling chain.
• Maintain proper chain tension always. A loose
chain will increase the risk of kickback. A loose
chain may jump out of guide bar groove. This may
injure operator and damage chain. A loose chain
will cause chain, bar, and sprocket to wear rapidly.
1. Place the pruning saw on any suitable flat surface.
2. Loosen the Housing-Cover Knob a bit to loosen the
Chain Cover lightly.
3. Adjust the chain tension. Turn the Chain Tensioning
Screw clockwise to tighten. (See Fig. E1)
4. The correct chain tension is reached when the Chain
can be raised approx. half the drivelink depth from
the Guide Bar in the center. (See Fig. E2)
5. Tighten the Housing-Cover Knob to secure the Chain
Cover. (See Fig. E3)
NOTE: The Chain is properly tensioned when it can
be lifted off of the Guide Bar and the drivelink is
within the rail of the Guide Bar.
NOTE: The chain will naturally stretch and lose
proper tension under general use. To re-tention,
repeat steps 1-5 listed above.
ASSEMBLING THE EXTENSION POLE (Only for
WG324E.1)
Align and insert the handle of extension pole into the
shaft. Rotate the Locking Knob clockwise to lock. (See
Fig. F1, F2)
NOTE: Make sure that the shaft is firmly locked in place.
