mDANGER! Never start the motor before installing the
guide bar, chain, and sprocket cover. Without all these parts in
place, the clutch can y o or explode, exposing the user to
potentially serious injuries.
When you rst purchase your pruning saw, the chain and bar
will come pre-assembled on the saw. Should you need to
replace the chain in the future, follow the steps below.
1. Screw the chain/sprocket end cover knob
counterclockwise to release chain/sprocket end cover
(Fig. 12).
2. Remove the cutting bar and chain from the mounting
surface (Fig. 13).
3. Remove the old chain from the bar.
4. Lay out the new saw chain in a loop and straighten
any kinks. THE SHARP SIDE OF THE TEETH MUST
FACE AWAY FROM YOU IN THE DIRECTION OF THE
CHAIN ROTATION INDICATED ON THE GUIDE BAR
. If the teeth face backwards,
turn the loop over (Fig. 14).
5. Starting at the tip, mount the chain drive links into the
bar groove, leaving a loop at the back of the bar. The chain
will loosely t until it is placed on the sprocket
(Fig. 15).
NOTE: Make certain of the direction of the chain. If
the chain is mounted backwards, the saw will vibrate
abnormally and will not cut.
6. Hold the chain in position on the bar and place the loop
around the sprocket. Fit the bar against the mounting
surface so that the extruded piece on the mounting
surface is in the long slot of the bar and the adjusting pin
is in the chain tension pin hole (Fig. 16).
