6.2. BAR AND CHAIN INSTALLATION

  The chain of the chainsaw has very sharp edges. 

Use protective gloves to avoid being cut.

1.  Check the chain brake is not activated, by pulling 

  the brake lever backwards.

2.  Loosen the bolts (1) and remove the chain 

  guard (2). Once you take off the cover, take off the 

  adjustment protector (7) too.

3.  Slip the chain (3) around the sprocket (4) while you 

  adjust the chain (3) around the bar (5) and 

  assemble the bar (5) onto the tool. Adjust the 

  chain tensor, ensuring the pivot of the tensing nut 

  (6) coincides with the hole on the bar (5).

 Pay attention to the correct position of the chain. 

The chain must be placed in the direction which is 

shown in the figure below:

4.  Place the chain guard (2) and tighten the nuts 

  slightly (1).

5.  Tighten the chain. The tension is correct when the 

  chain can be pulled upwards at the centre of the 

  bar to its maximum position possible and the tip of  

  the guiding link does not come away.
