Always disengage the chain brake, remove the spark plug wire, and ensure the saw is fully powered down before handling the chain or bar. Use appropriate chain installation tools and follow the manufacturer tensioning guidelines to avoid over-tightening or insufficient tension. Proper chain lubrication and bar groove condition should be verified at the time of replacement.
