Fitting the bar and chain

WARNING! Always remove the battery
!
before any assembly, maintenance and/
or checking is done on the machine.
Always wear gloves, when working with
the chain.
• Check that the chain brake is in disengaged position
by moving the front hand guard towards the front
handle. (Figure 42)
• Remove the drive sprocket cover by turning the knob
counterclockwise. Take off the transportation guard
(A). (Figure 43)
• Fit the bar over the bar bolt. Place the bar in its
rearmost position. Place the chain over the drive
sprocket and in the groove on the bar. Begin on the
top side of the bar. (Figure 44)
• Make sure that the edges of the cutting links are
facing forward on the top edge of the bar.
Mount the clutch cover and remember to fit the chain
adjuster pin in the hole in the bar. Check that the drive
links of the chain fit correctly over the drive sprocket
and that the chain is correctly located in the groove in
the bar.
• Tension the chain by turning the wheel down (+). The
chain should be tensioned until it does not sag from
the underside of the bar. (Figure 45)
• The chain is correctly tensioned when it does not sag
from the underside of the bar, but can still be turned
easily by hand. Hold up the bar tip and tighten the bar
knob by turning the knob clockwise. (Figure 46)
• When fitting a new chain, the chain tension has to be
checked frequently until the chain is run-in. Check the
chain tension regularly. A correctly tensioned chain
ensures good cutting performance and long life.
