REPLACING THE GUIDE BAR AND SAW CHAIN
WARNING:
Always use a low-kickback
saw chain,
which significantly
reduces the danger of kickback. Low-
kickback saw chain does not completely eliminate
kickback. A low-kickback
or "safety chain," should never
be regarded as total protection against injury.
When replacing the guide bar and saw chain, only use the
replacement
parts specified by the manufacturer
or their
equivalents. Refer to Replacement Parts. Use of any unauthorized
parts or accessories could lead to serious injury to the operator or
damage to the unit and will VOiD the warranty.
Always use a replacement saw chain designated
as "low-kickback"
or a saw chain that meets the low-kickback
performance
requirements. A standard saw chain (a chain that does not have the
kickback-reducing
guard links) should only be used by an
experienced
professional chain saw operator.
