Mounting the chain bar |
| ||
| |||
1. Place the chainsaw with the |
| ||
motor on a cover to avoid |
| ||
any mess from the oil. |
| ||
2. Place the chain (5) in the |
| ||
grove of the bar (6). Pay |
| ||
attention to the correct |
| ||
running direction. As shown |
| ||
| |||
by the running direction |
|
| |
symbol. |
|
| |
3. Place the chain links around |
|
| |
the chain wheel (9) and put |
|
| |
the bar on such that the two |
|
| |
locating pegs fit into the |
|
| |
slotted hole of the bar. |
|
| |
4. Prior to fitting the cover (11) |
|
| |
|
| ||
it is important to set the |
| ||
| |||
chain adjusting cam. To do |
| ||
this fully depress the chain |
| ||
clamp/lock knob and rotate |
| ||
until the cam is aligned with |
| ||
the arrow as pictures in Fig 1. |

the back locating hook into | |||
| |||
the slot provided near the oil |
|
| |
|
| ||
indicator and lower the cover |
|
| |
over the bar ensuring the |
|
| |
clamp bolt of the cover passes |
|
| |
through the centre of the bar |
|
| |
adjustment block (10) and |
|
| |
rotate the clamp/lock knob |
|
| |
until it just starts to become |
|
| |
tight. |
|

Setting the chain saw tension
1.Loosen the chain clamp/lock knob by turning it
2.Press the chain clamp/lock knob inwards and turn it in a clockwise direction until the correct chain tension is reached.

4.Release the chain clamp/lock knob and ensure it springs away from the housing slightly.
5.Tighten the chain clamp/lock
knob by turning it clockwise without pressing it inwards.
6.Check whether all chain links lie correctly in the guide tracks of the bar.
Oil filling
