Guide bar and saw chain installation
・ In order to prevent cuts, be sure to wear gloves when handling the guide bar and saw chain.
・ Maintain the tension of the saw chain properly at all times.
・ If not enough tension is applied to the saw chain it can easily be dislodged when the saw chain
is in motion.
・ If too much tension is applied to the guide bar, saw chain and clutch may wear prematurely as
a result.
1. Slot the saw chain in the groove of the guide bar, ensuring
that the cutter section of the saw chain is facing the front.
2. Engage the saw chain into the sprocket.
3. Insert the groove of the guide bar into the pruner's main
unit and adjust the regulating screw to ensure that the ad-
juster is inserted in the circular hole of the guide bar.
4. Put the chain cover on and temporarily screw it in place
using a nut, to the extent that the guide bar can be moved.
5. Lift up the leading edge of the guide bar and using a screw
driver turn the regulating screw clockwise to tighten the
saw chain until the saw chain slightly touches the lower
side of the guide bar.
6. Securely tighten the nut on the chain cover, using the box
spanner, provided as an accessory with the product.
7. Verify that the saw chain on the central section of the
guide bar can be lifted by the fingers 3 to 4 mm off the
guide bar.
