WARNING
Always wear heavy duty protection wo-
rk gloves and disconnect the extension
cord when working on the saw chain.
CHAIN TENSION:
Check the chain tension frequently and
adjust as often as necessary to keep
the chain snug on the bar, but loose
enough to be pulled around by hand.
(See Section 3-5, Saw Chain Tension
Adjustment).
BREAKING IN A NEW SAW CHAIN
A new chain and bar will need readjus-
tment after as few as five(5) cuts. This
is normal during the break-in period,
and the interval between future adjust-
ments will begin to lengthen quickly.
Over a period of time, however, the
moving parts of the saw chain will
become worn, resulting in what is called
CHAIN STRETCH. This is normal.When
itis no longer possible to obtain correct
chain tension adjustment, a link will
have to be removed to shorten the
chain.See your Poulan Authorized
Service Center to have this repair
performed,
WARNING / CAUTION
Never have more than three(3) links
removed from a toop of chain this could
cause damage to the sprocket,
