To Adjust Saw Chain Tension.
1.
Loosen two guide bar nuts (A), if necessary.
2.
Turn saw chain adjuster slot (B) clockwise to tighten saw chain on
guide bar. Turning slot counter clockwise will loosen saw chain on
guide bar.
3.
Tighten guide bar nuts (A) firmly. Pull the saw chain around the
guide bar by hand. Saw chain should move freely on guide bar. If
saw chain is difficult to rotate or binds on guide bar, it is too tight.
4.
Keep the saw chain lubricated and properly adjusted and the
guide bar nuts tightened firmly at all times.
IMPORTANT
Chain and guide bar gauge size must be identical. Use Bar/Chain combinations shown in table above.
