WARNING: This chain saw is capable of severe kickback that coult result in serious injury to the user. Do not operate this chain saw unless you have extraordinary cutting needs and experience and specialized training for dealing with kickback. Chain saws with significantly reduced kickback potential are available. Before doing any work on the guide bar or chain, always switch off the engine and pull the plug cap off the spark plug (see "Replacing the spark plug"). Start the chain saw only after having assembled it completely and inspected. Use the universal wrench delivered with the chain saw for the following work. Put the chain saw on a stable surface and carry out the following steps for mounting the guide bar and saw chain: Release the chain brake by pulling the hand guard (1) in direction of arrow. Turn chain tensioning screw (4) to the left (counter-clockwise) until the pin (5) of the chain tensioner is underneath the threaded pin (6). CAUTION: Do not insert the chain between the chain sprocket and the disc. Guide the chain from above about halfway into the groove (10) on the guide bar. Note that the cutting edges along the top of the chain must point in the direction of the arrow!Pull the chain (9) around the sprocket nose (12) of the guide bar in the direction of the arrow. Tighten the nuts (2) only hand-tight to begin with. Turn the chain tensioning screw (4) to the right (clockwise) until the saw chain catches in the groove on the lower side of the guide bar (see circle). Slightly lift the end of the guide bar and turn the chain adjusting screw (4) to the right (clockwise) until the chain rests against the bottom side of the guide bar. While still holding up the tip of the guide bar, tighten the retaining nuts (2) with the universal wrench. The tension of the chain is correct if the chain rests against the bottom side of the guide bar and can still be easily turned by hand. While doing so the chain brake must be released. Check the chain tension frequently - new chains tend to get longer during use!When checking the chain tension the engine must be switched off.
