edges. Use work gloves for safety.
IMPORTANT. Front guard (chain

is a “click” to make sure that
the chain brake is released.

ended wrench (27) and remove the chain drive cover (4).
3. Once the chain drive cover (4) has been removed, the
transport- protecting spacer (25) must be removed and
disposed of so that the chain bar can be positively located.

5. Place the guide bar (1) in position over the threaded
stud with the chain tensioning pin (26), in the hole in the
guide bar.

fasten the nut (5), finger tight.
