3.  Remove the bar and chain from the mounting surface 
(Fig. 6).
4.  Remove the old chain from the bar.
5.  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. 7).
6.  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. 8 – 9).
  NOTE: Make certain of the direction of the chain
. If the chain is mounted 
backwards, the saw will vibrate abnormally and will not 
cut.
7.  Hold the chain in position on the bar and place the loop 
around the sprocket. Fit the bar ush against the mounting 
surface so that the bar studs are in the long slot of the bar 
and the adjusting pin is in the chain tension pin hole 
(Fig. 10). 
8.  Replace the chain/sprocket end cover by positioning the 
cover onto the saw head. Tighten the end cover knob, 
but leave the bar free to move for tension adjustment. Put 
back the hex bolt by screwing it clockwise with the hex 
key wrench. 
9.  Remove all slack from the chain by turning the chain 
tensioner ring clockwise until the chain seats snugly 
against the bar with the drive links in the bar groove 
(Fig. 11).
