NOTICE:
Small directional arrows are engraved in the saw chain (Fig. 26a). Another
directional arrow is molded into the housing (Fig. 26a). When looping the saw chain onto the
sprocket, make sure that the direction of the arrows on the saw chain will correspond to the
direction of the arrow on the housing. If they face in opposite directions, turn over the saw
chain and guide bar assembly (Fig. 26b).
