Chain scabbard
Your saw comes standard with a chain
scabbard that matches the cutting
attachment.
If you use guide bars of different lengths
on the saw, the length of the chain
scabbard must be matched to the guide
bar to reduce the risk of injury. It should
cover the full length of the guide bar.
The length of the matching guide bars is
marked on the side of the chain
scabbard.
Removing the chain sprocket cover
N Unscrew the nut and remove the
chain sprocket cover.
N Turn the screw (1)
counterclockwise until the
tensioning nut (2) butts against the
left end of the housing slot.
Disengage the chain brake.
N Pull the hand guard towards the
front handle until there is an audible
click – the chain brake is
disengaged.
Fitting the chain
WARNING
Wear work gloves to protect your hands
from the sharp cutters.
