How do you put on a chainsaw chain on a Poulan chain saw?

Answer

Remove the clutch cover, loosen the bar and slide it back. Remove the old chain, install the new one and tighten it. Make sure you don't tighten it too much or you will wreck it. Too much tension on the chain will cause undue friction and the chain will heat up an could lose it's temper (soften).
