QUICK REFERENCE OF CHAIN & BAR ASSEMBLY SCREW TENSION
NOTE:
- Chains stretch with use; check and tension often.
- Never tension a warm chain before storing, as chains
shrink when cool, this can damage chain, bar and saw.
!
1. Release chain tension by turning the
tensioning screw, located behind the
chain bar, counter clockwise.
2. Unscrew t he locking knob. 3. Remove t he cover.
4. The bar and chain can now be removed
by lifting them away from the main body
of the saw and releasing the chain from
the drive pulley.
5. The pole saw can now be cleaned with
a brush and or rag to remove sawdust
and oil.
6. To replace the bar and chain, loop the
chain over the drive pulley and place
the bar against the centre alignment
groove.
7. Ensure that the adjusting block is
located in the tensioning hole on
the chain bar...
8. ...and that the rubber block and chain
bar are free from oil, as this helps to
keep tension on the chain.
9. Replace the side cover and locking
knob, but do not tighten.
10. Using a screwdriver on the tensioning
screw...turn clockwise.
11. ...until there is enough play so that the
chain can be pulled away from the bar,
but not so much that the runners can
be pulled out of the bar.
12. Once you have the correct tension,
fully tighten the locking knob.
