Mounting the Bar and Chain
Removing the chain sprocket cover
The guide bar and Oilomatic chain are supplied separately
for safety reasons.
To
mount them, first unscrew the two collar nuts
(1)
from the
studs and take off the chain sprocket cover (2).
If
you have
a Quickstop model, it
is
necessary to disengage the chain
brake before taking off the sprocket cover; pull the hand
guard back towards the handlebar.
Now
back off the chain
tensioning nut (3) - behind inner side plate - by turning the
tensioning screw
(4)
counterclockwise (to the left)
to
the
end of its thread.
Fit the slot of the guide bar over the studs (5) so that the
peg of the tensioning nut (6) engages
in
the lower locating
hole (7).
Starting at the sprocket, fit the Oilomatic chain on the guide
bar so that the cutting edges on the top of the bar are facing
the bar nose.
Push the sprocket cover (2) onto the studs
(5) and (on
Quickstop models only) engage the end of the lever (8)
in
the slot on the hand guard.
4 Refit collar nuts

and screw them down finger-tight. Now
