Tensioning the chain.
1. Important! Place the pole pruner on a clean, flat surface(For re-adjustment during operation, shut
down the engine), then allow the guide bar and chain to cool before proceeding with the adjustment
procedure
-Undo the fastening screw (Item I) of the chain wheel cover (Item J) by a few turns with a plug wrench.
-Adjust the chain tension with the chain tensioning screw (Item K). Turning the screw clockwise
increases the chain tension, turning it counterclockwise decreases the chain tension. The chain is
correctly tensioned if it can be raised by around 2 mm in the middle of the cutter bar.
(Pull the chain by hand along the top of the guide bar several times from the engine to the bar’s tip. The
chain should feel sung but still pull freely)
