Replacement Part List

3. Remove the old chain from the bar.
NOTE: When you rst purchase your pole chain saw, the
chain and bar will come separately with the saw. Refer
only to the instructions for tting the chain and bar (start
with step 4). Should you need to replace the chain in the
future, follow all the steps in this section.
4. Lay out the new saw chain in a loop and straighten
any kinks. THE SHARP SIDE OF THE TEETH MUST
FACE AWAY FROM YOU IN THE DIRECTION OF THE
CHAIN ROTATION INDICATED ON THE GUIDE BAR
. If the teeth face backwards, turn
the loop over (Fig. 3).
5. Starting at the tip, mount the chain drive links into the
bar groove, leaving a loop at the back of the bar. The
chain will loosely t until it is placed on the sprocket
(Figs. 4 – 5).
NOTE: Make certain of the direction of the chain
.If the chain is mounted
backwards, the saw will vibrate abnormally and will not
cut.
6. Position the chain so there is a loop at the back of the bar.
Hold the chain in position on the bar and place the loop
around the sprocket (Fig. 6).
7. Fit the bar ush against the mounting surface so that the
bar slot mounts onto the slot ange in the head and hold
rmly in place (Fig. 6).
NOTE: When placing the bar on the ange, ensure that
the tensioner pin is in the chain tensioner pin hole in the
bar. Adjust the chain tension as needed by adjusting the
chain tensioner screw with the blade screwdriver so it
lines up with the pin hole in the bar (Fig. 7).
