Mounting guide bar and chain
Always wear gloves, when working with the
chain, in order to protect your hands from
injury.
Check that the chain brake is
in disengaged position by
moving the front hand guard
towards the front handle.
Take off the bar nuts and
remove the clutch cover. Take
off the transportation ring (A).
Fit the bar over the bar bolts.
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 on the
cutting links are facing forward
on the top side of the bar.
Fit the clutch cover and locate
the chain adjuster pin in the
hole on the bar. Check that
the drive links of the chain fit
correctly on the drive sprocket
and that the chain is in the
groove on the bar. Tighten the
bar nuts finger tight.
Tension the chain by using
the combination wrench. Turn
the chain adjuster screw
clockwise. The chain should
be tensioned until it fits snugly
on the underside of the bar.
ASSEMBLY
Hold up the tip of the bar and
tighten the chain. The chain is
correctly tensioned when
there is no slack on the
underside of the bar, but it can
still be turned easily by hand.
Hold up the bar tip and tighten
the bar nuts with the
combination wrench.
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
gives good cutting
performance and long lifetime.
