Fitting the bar and chain

WARNING! Always wear gloves, when
!
working with the chain.
• Check that the chain brake is in disengaged position
by moving the front hand guard towards the front
handle. (36)
• Remove the knob and remove the clutch cover (chain
brake). Take off the transportation ring.
• Fit the bar over the bar bolt. Place the bar in its
rearmost position. Place the chain over the drive
sprocket and in the groove on the bar. Begin on the
top side of the bar.
• Make sure that the edges of the cutting links are
facing forward on the top edge of the bar.
Mount the clutch cover and remember to fit the chain
adjuster pin in the hole in the bar. Check that the drive
links of the chain fit correctly over the drive sprocket
and that the chain is correctly located in the groove in
the bar.
• Tension the chain by turning the wheel down (+). The
chain should be tensioned until it does not sag from
the underside of the bar.
• The chain is correctly tensioned when it does not sag
from the underside of the bar, but can still be turned
easily by hand. Hold up the bar tip and tighten the bar
knob by turning the knob clockwise.
• When fitting a new chain, the chain tension has to be
checked frequently until the chain is run-in. Check the
chain tension regularly. A correctly tensioned chain
ensures good cutting performance and long life. (37)
