SAW CHAIN TENSION ADJUSTMENT
WARNING DANGER
Always disconnect spark plug wire before servicing cutting
attachment. Wear gloves when handling saw chain, otherwise
serious personal injury may result.
To Adjust Saw Chain Tension.
1. Loosen two (2) 10 mm (13/32 in.) guide bar nuts (A) located on
cutting attachment.
2. Turn the adjuster slot (B) clockwise until saw chain touches the
bottom of guide bar. Turning adjuster slot (B) counter clockwise
will loosen saw chain on guide bar.
3. Tighten guide bar nuts firmly. Move saw chain backwards on
guide bar by hand. Saw chain should move freely on guide bar if it
is in proper mesh with sprocket.
Keep the saw chain lubricated and properly adjusted and the guide bar
nuts tightened firmly at all times. If saw chain is difficult to rotate or
binds on guide bar, it is too tight.
