You can purchase sharpening tools at an authorized service dealer or go to a professional chain sharpener. WARNING: Avoid accidental start- ing. Always unplug saw from power source before installing a bar and/or chain. CHAIN REPLACEMENT WARNING: Wear protective 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 during the first 15 minutes of operation. You should recheck your chain tension frequently 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 requirements of ANSI B175.1 when tested with this saw. See your authorized service dealer to replace and sharpen individual cutters on your chain. TO REPLACE CHAIN: 1. Disconnect the chain saw from the power source. 2. Remove bar clamp nuts. 3. Remove bar clamp and old chain. 4. Turn the adjusting screw counterclockwise to move the adjusting pin almost as far as it will go to the rear.
