Help!

Ok, so I'm back out with the chainsaw this afternoon. The chain pops. How would one put the chain back on before her husband gets home?
Also, incase anyone was wondering,
tip#1 You should always wear pants when using a chainsaw learned the hard way.
Tip #2 Gloves are your friend also learned the hard way, huge blister.
Tip #3 Know where the land mines are. Learned this as I sit here typing. :stinky:
Seriously though, I need to get the chain back on so I can look good and have all this done by the time he gets home.

There should be 1 or 2 bolts on the bar (flat thing the chain goes around) near the engine. There may also be an adjustment screw. Loosen all of these and slide the bar towards the engine. Drape the chain back on the bar. Use the adjustment screw to extend the bar & tighten the chain (not too tight). Tighten the bolts on the bar. Waa Laa.

Is it true that the chain can slice you up when it come off or was he just trying to scare me? This time it seemed to fall fairly easily with no problems.

Your saw should have a "chain guard" right above the left hand grip. This assumes you're right-handed...

Woman who use chain saws are sexy

Would this be the thing you push forward to stop the chain from spinning?

That's the one, it serves as a chain guard as well as an "anti-kick back" feature. If the saw kicks back out of what your cutting. Your hand will engage this and stop the chain.

Shorts. I should have gotten the idea to put on pants when the drawstring on my shorts went into the intaqke fan under the leaf blower and darn near ripped them off me. Unfortunately, I have to be told twice.

You wrap your hand on the grip Behind the gaurd!!!

Maybe you should step away from the saw, take off your gloves, put your shorts back on, grab a cold beverage and sun yourself until hubby gets home!

Once I was useing husbands belt sander when he wasnt home, and I got to close to a rag pile and sucked up a pair of his old tighty whiteys into it. I put down sander and walked away. Same as Camily should do with chainsaw.
