    1) loosen chain with allen wrench or tool provided. 2) remove blade.
    3) change chain.
    4) re assemble and tighten blade and chain.

    You have to remove the bar first.I would take it to a chain saw repair shop or someone who knows that stuff.If replaced wrong it can be dangerous..be careful.

    loosen the two nuts at the rear of the blade in the center of it a couple of turns; then back off the tightening screw , behind the bar.
    Continue to remove the bar by taking the two nuts completely off.
    Be sure to note direction existing chain is on the bar and place the new one on the same way.
    place bar back on the saw and replace the two nuts but dont run them down tight ,!! Be sure the little pin on the tightener is in the hole ! now tighten the chain with the tightener until halt the guides in the bar can be seen when you pull down on the chain, now tighten the two nuts on the bar real snug. i squirt a bit of oil on a knew chain for good luck !!
