Remove the cover on the side (big wheel) and take off the chain. Use a stiff brush to remove any oily debris.

Count the links - put clothes peg on one link as a guide - buy replacement chain (£17) with same number of links and put it in - adjust tension - I set mine to have 3mm play when cold.

When you have the bar out remove sawdust from the oil holes - you are also encouraged to reverse the bar each time you change the chain to even out wear.

A DIY store will sell you a chain sharpening kit for about £10 - takes about 20 minutes - relatively easy. Good sharpening article here...
