Use the following instructions to tighten the mount-
ing screw of the nose guard. These are specially
hardened screws. If you cannot install the screw
tightly, replace both the screw and the SAFE-T-TIP
before further operation.
NOTE: Do not replace the screw with an ordinary
screw. Use only identical replacement parts from
the manufacturer when replacing parts.
In addition to preventing chain contact with solid
objects at the nose of the bar, the SAFE-T-TIP also
helps keep the chain away from abrasive surfaces,
such as the ground. Keep it on the right hand side
of the bar where it will be between the chain and
the ground during flush with ground cutting.
The mounting screw requires a 5/16 in. wrench (or
adjustable wrench) to achieve the recommended
torque of 35 to 45 in.lb. A torque within this range
can be achieved by using the following method.
MAINTENANCE
Tighten the screw with wrench until snug.
From the snug position, tighten the screw an
additional 3/4 of a turn using a wrench.
STORING THE PRODUCT
