Fit the bar over the bar bolt. Place the bar in its rearmost position. Place the chain over the drive sprocket and in the groove on the bar. Begin on the top side of the bar.

Make sure that the edges of the cutting links are facing forward on the top edge of the bar.

Fit the drive sprocket cover and locate the chain adjuster pin in the cut-out in the guide bar. Check that the drive links of the saw chain fit correctly on the drive sprocket and that the saw chain is in the groove in the guide bar. Tighten the bar nut finger-tight.

Tension the chain by turning the chain tensioning screw clockwise using the combination spanner. The chain

should be tensioned until it does not sag from the underside of the bar.

The chain is correctly tensioned when there is no slack on the underside of the bar, and it can still be turned easily by hand.Tighten the bar nut with the combination spanner while holding up the tip of the bar.

When fitting a new chain, the chain tension has to be checked frequently until the chain is run-in. Check the chain tension regularly. A correctly tensioned chain ensures good cutting performance and long life.
