NOTICE:
When looping the saw chain
onto the guide bar, make sure that after
mounting the guide bar onto the saw,
the cutter orientation matches the cutter
icon and rotation direction arrow on the
housing of the saw (Fig. 11b). If they face
in opposite directions, reassemble the
saw chain onto the guide bar with the
cutters facing the same direction.

chain saw housing and fully tighten
both lock nuts.
NOTE: Tension the chain by following
instructions in the chapter "ADJUSTING
THE CHAIN TENSION" in the next section.
9. Rotate the chain by hand to check
whether the chain is properly
assembled without binding.
Otherwise, reassemble the chain
and bar.
ADJUSTING THE CHAIN TENSION

tensioning bolt clockwise or
counterclockwise to adjust chain
tension according to the marks on
the side cover around the chain-
tensioning bolt (Fig. 12a) until the chain seats snugly against the guide bar with
