Cutting Chain
m
WARNING!
Always wear heavy-duty gloves when
handling the bar and chain. Mount the bar and chain very
carefully so as not to impair the safety and efficiency of the
machine. If in doubt, contact an authorized Snow Joe
Sun Joe dealer or call the Snow Joe
®
service center at 1-866-SNOWJOE (1-866-766-9563).
NOTE: When replacing the guide bar and chain, use only
identical replacement parts. Make sure the pole chain saw
is disconnected with the battery before proceeding with
installation.
NOTE: When you first purchase your chain saw, the chain
will come separately in the chain + bar box. Refer only to the
instructions for fitting the chain and bar (from step 5). Should
you need to replace the chain and bar in the future, follow all
the steps detailed below.
1. Unscrew the end cover knob counterclockwise to unlock
and remove the chain/sprocket end cover (Figs. 4 to 5).

5. Starting at the tip, mount the chain drive links into the
bar groove, leaving a loop at the back of the bar. The
chain will loosely fit until it is placed on the sprocket
(Figs. 8 – 9).
NOTE: Make certain of the direction of the chain
backwards, the saw will vibrate abnormally and will not
cut.
