kinks. The cutters should face in the direction of chain
rotation. If they face backwards, turn the loop over.

shown in figure 46.

8. Position the chain so there is a loop at the back of the

bar.

9. Hold the chain in position on the bar and place the loop

around the sprocket.

10. Fit the bar flush against the mounting surface so that

Note for UT10942D: When placing the bar on the bar
studs ensure that the adjusting pin is in the chain
tension pin hole.

11. Replace the outer guide bar plate ensuring that the bar

pin groove is at the bottom with the upper and lower
edges angled away from the guide bar.

12. Replace the clutch cover and bar mounting nuts.

13. Tighten the bar mounting nuts finger tight only. The

bar must be free to move for tension adjustment.
