Removealltheslackfromthechainbyturning
thechaintensioningscrewclockwiseuntilthe
chainseatssnuglyagainstthebarwiththedrive
linksinthebargroove.
Liftthe tip of the guidebarup to check for
sag.Releasethetipoftheguidebarandturn
thechaintensioningscrew1/2turnclockwise.
Repeatthisprocessuntilsagdoesnotexist.
Holdthetipoftheguidebarupandtightenthe
bar mounting screw securely.

Chainiscorrectlytensionedwhenthereisno

issnug,butitcanbeturnedbyhandwithout
binding.
NOTE:Ifchainistootight,itwillnotrotate.
Loosenthechaincoverscrewslightlyandturn

rotatewithoutbinding.
Placethehexkeybackintothestoragearea.
ADJUSTING CHAIN TENSION
See Figures 29 - 30.
WARNING:
Shutoffthemotor,waitforallmovingpartsto
stop,andremovethebatterypack.Nevertouch
oradjustthechainwhiletheengineisrunning.
Thesawchainisverysharp.Alwayswear pro-
tectivegloveswhen performingmaintenance
on thechain. Failuretofollowtheseinstructions
canresultinseriouspersonalinjury.
Properchaintensioniscriticaltotheperformance
ofyour chain saw. Always check chain tension
beforeusingthe saw and periodically until the
workiscomplete.
Acoldchainiscorrectlytensionedwhenthereis
noslackontheundersideoftheguidebar.The
chainshouldbesnug,butstillabletobeturned
byhandwithoutbinding.
MAINTENANCE
SCRENCH
APPROX. .050 in.
Awarmchainiscorrectlytensionedwhentheflats
onthetiestrapshangapproximately.050inches
outofthebargroove.
If adjustment is needed:
Loosenthechaincoverscrewtofingertight.
Raisethetipoftheguidebarandcontinueto
holdupuntiltheendofthisprocedure.
Turnthechaintensioningscrewclockwiseuntil
theflatsonthetiestrapsofthechaincontact
thebar,makingsurethedrivelinksareseated
insidethebargroove.
