handling saw chains.
1.Loosen the retaining nut of the chain
sprocket cover by a few rotations.-
2.Adjust the chain tension by rotating the
Tension Adjustment Knob (the outermost
knob on the cover release knob). Clockwise
rotation increases the chain tension;
counter-clockwise rotation reduces the
chain tension. The saw chain is correctly
tensioned if it can be raised approximately
2 mm from the center of the guide bar
(Figure 4).
