Follow these steps to safely install your new replacement chain:
- చైన్సా సిద్ధం చేయండి: Ensure the chainsaw engine is off and cool. Disconnect the spark plug wire to prevent accidental starting.
- Remove the Bar Cover: Loosen the bar nuts and carefully remove the side cover that secures the guide bar and chain.
- పాత గొలుసును తీసివేయండి: Carefully remove the old chain from the guide bar and drive sprocket. Observe the direction of the old chain's cutters for correct installation of the new chain.
- కొత్త గొలుసును ఇన్స్టాల్ చేయండి: Place the new Poulan Pro chain onto the drive sprocket. Guide the chain around the nose of the guide bar and into the groove along the bar. Ensure the cutting edges of the chain are facing the correct direction (typically forward on the top of the bar).
- బార్ కవర్ను తిరిగి ఇన్స్టాల్ చేయండి: Position the guide bar correctly and replace the side cover. Hand-tighten the bar nuts initially.
- చైన్ టెన్షన్ను సర్దుబాటు చేయండి: Adjust the chain tensioning screw until the chain is snug against the bottom of the guide bar, but can still be pulled freely by hand. There should be no slack on the underside of the bar.

7. ట్రబుల్షూటింగ్
Addressing common issues related to your chainsaw chain:
- Chain not cutting efficiently: This is often due to a dull chain. Check chain sharpness and sharpen if necessary. Also, verify correct chain tension and ensure the cutters are facing the proper direction.
- Chain smoking or overheating: Insufficient lubrication or incorrect chain tension can cause this. Verify proper chain lubrication and tension. A dull chain can also generate excessive heat.
- Chain coming off the bar: This issue is frequently caused by incorrect chain tension (too loose) or a worn guide bar/sprocket. Ensure the chain is tensioned correctly and inspect the guide bar and sprocket for wear or damage.
- అధిక కంపనం: An unbalanced or damaged chain, or a dull chain, can cause excessive vibration. Inspect the chain for damage and ensure it is sharp and properly tensioned.
