PREPARING YOUR CHAIN SAW FOR USE
WARNING: Read and understand all instructions. Failure to
follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious personal injury.

ASSEMBLY

Installing the Guide Bar and Saw Chain
CAUTION: Sharp chain. Always wear protective gloves when
handling the chain. The chain is sharp and can cut you when it is not
running.
WARNING: Sharp moving chain. To prevent accidental
operation, insure that battery is disconnected from the tool
before performing the following operations. Failure to do this
could result in serious personal
injury.
The saw chain and guide bar are
packed separately in the carton
inside the scabbard. The chain has
been placed on the guide bar at the
factory to insure that the teeth are
facing in the proper direction when
you first attach it. Should the chain
come off of the guide bar, refer to the
section "Replacing the Chain" for proper tooth orientation.
• Place the saw on a firm surface.
Rotate the two allen head screws
(11) counterclockwise with the
wrench (13) provided as shown in
figure D.
• Remove sprocket cover (10) and
allen head screws (11).
• Cut the plastic wire tie holding the
guide bar scabbard (12) to the
guide bar (8). Be sure to cut away
from yourself to prevent injury if cutting instrument should slip.

• Wearing protective gloves, grasp the saw chain (9) and guide bar
(8) with one hand and pull the guide bar scabbard (12) off with your
free hand.
• Place the saw chain and guide bar assembly around the sprocket
(19). Check to make sure that the slot (20) in the guide bar (8) is
over the two location pins (21)
shown in figure E and that the hole
below the slot is located over the
adjustment pin (22).
• Replace sprocket cover (10) and
thread allen head screws (11) in
with wrench until snug, then back
wrench off one full turn.
• Cut the plastic wire tie holding the
saw chain to the guide bar. Be sure
to cut away from yourself to prevent injury if cutting instrument
should slip.
• Pull bar nose up and keep it up as you adjust tension.
• With the flat screwdriver end of the wrench provided rotate the
tension adjustment screw (23) in the front of the housing clockwise
to increase the chain tension as in figure F.
• Follow instructions in "Adjusting Chain Tension" section.
• While still holding the bar nose up, tighten the rear allen screw first,
then tighten the front allen screw. Make sure both allen screws are
securely tightened. Do not overtighten.
• When the chain is new check the tension frequently (after
disconnecting battery) during the first 2 hours of use as a new chain
stretches slightly.
