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

the Guide Bar. (See Fig. B1, B2)
6. Assure all parts are seated properly. Make
sure the drive links are fully seated in the Drive
Sprocket (See Fig. C1), avoiding a kink as shown
in Fig. C2. If kink occurs, pick up the Chain at the

kink out.
NOTE: Chain should rotate freely and be free of
kinks.
7. Fit the Housing Cover. Tilt the guide bar forward
where the guide bar tip is pushed in an vertically
downward direction. This will remove slack from
the chain. The correct chain tension is reached
when the chain can be raised approx. Half the
drivelink depth from the guide bar in the center.
This should be done by using one hand to raise
the chain against the weight of the machine.
Then tighten the Housing Cover by turning the
Housing-Cover Knob clockwise until it is tight.
