CHAIN SHARPENING
Chain sharpening requires special tools.
You can purchase sharpening tools at an
authorized service dealer or go to a pro-
fessional chain sharpener.
WARNING:
Avoid accidental start-
ing. Always unplug saw from power
source before installing a bar and/or
chain.
CHAIN REPLACEMENT
WARNING:
Wear
gloves when handling chain. The chain
is sharp and can cut you even when it is
not moving.
It is normal for a new chain to stretch dur-
ing the first 15 minutes of operation. You
should recheck your chain tension fre-
quently and adjust the chain tension as
required. See
CHECK CHAIN TENSION
section.
Replace the old chain when it becomes
worn or damaged. Use only the Low
Kickback replacement chain specified
in the list of available replacement parts.
The chain must comply with kickback re-
quirements of ANSI B175.1 when tested
with this saw. See your authorized ser-
vice dealer to replace and sharpen indi-
vidual cutters on your chain.
TO REPLACE CHAIN:
1. Disconnect the chain saw from the
power source.
2. Remove bar clamp nuts.
