MAINTENANCE
NOTE: Do not replace the screw with an ordinary
screw. Use only identical replacement parts from 
the manufacturer when replacing parts.
In addition to preventing chain contact with solid 
objects at the nose of the bar, the SAFE-T-TIP also 
helps keep the chain away from abrasive surfaces, 
such as the ground. Keep it on the right hand side 
of the bar where it will be between the chain and 
the ground during flush with ground cutting.
The mounting screw requires a 5/16 in. wrench (or 
adjustable wrench) to achieve the recommended 
torque of 35 to 45 in.lb. A torque within this range 
can be achieved by using the following method.
	
Tighten the screw with wrench until snug.
From the snug position, tighten the screw an 
additional 3/4 of a turn using a wrench.
STORING THE PRODUCT

Clean all foreign material from the product. Store

Always place the sleeve (

(

avoid the sharp teeth of the chain.
