MAINTAINING THE SAFE-T-TIP™
NOSE GUARD
See Figures 56 - 57.
CAUTION:
Make sure the chain has stopped before you
do any work on the saw.
WARNING:
Although the guide bar comes with a SAFE-
T-TIP™ antikickback device already installed,
check the tightness of the mounting screw
before each use.
Use the following instructions to tighten the
mounting 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.
Tighten the screw with wrench until snug.
From the snug position, tighten the screw an
additional 3/4 of a turn using a wrench.
CLEANING THE AIR FILTER

Activate chain brake.
Lift the latch to release the air filter cover.
Slide the cover out and then lift to remove from
the saw.
Remove the air filter retainer by lifting the lip on
the right side just enough to release the pins
from the slots, then raise the retainer to remove.
