2. Remove the cutting bar and chain from the mounting
surface (Fig. 3).
3. Remove the old chain from the bar.
NOTE: When you rst purchase your pole chain saw, the
chain and bar will come separately with the saw. Refer
only to the instructions for tting the chain and bar (start
with step 4). Should you need to replace the chain in the
future, follow all the steps in this section.
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. 4).
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.
(Figs. 5 & 6)
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 bar stud is in the long slot of the
bar and the adjusting pin is in the chain tension pin
hole (Fig. 7).
