TENSION THE CHAIN
1. Check the chain tension by pulling the saw chain away
from the chain bar. A properly tensioned chain should
have roughly 0.08 inch (2 mm) of distance between
itself and the bar guide.
2. If adjustments are needed, loosen the bar adjustment
locking nut one full turn.
3. To adjust the saw chain tension, turn the chain tensioning
screw. Turning the screw clockwise increases the
tension while turning it counter-clockwise decreases
tension. A properly tensioned chain should have no
sag and should only be able to be pulled 0.08 inch (2
mm) away from the chain bar of the saw.
4. Once the chain is properly tensioned, tighten the bar
adjustment locking nut. DO NOT over-tension the
chain: this will lead to excessive wear and reduces the
life of both the bar and chain.
CAUTION:
The saw chain must be tensioned properly in order to
ensure safe operation.
