adjusting Chain tension
CAUTION: Sharp chain. Always wear protective gloves when
handling the chain. The chain is sharp and can cut you when it is
not running.
WARNING: Sharp moving chain. To prevent accidental
operation, insure that battery is disconnected from the tool
before performing the following operations. Failure to do this
could result in serious personal injury.
• With the saw still on a firm surface
check the chain tension. The
tension is correct when the chain
snaps back after being pulled 1/8
inch (3mm) away from the guide
bar (6) with light force from the
middle finger and thumb as shown
in figure h. There should be no
"sag" between the guide bar and
the chain on the underside as
shown in figure i.
• To adjust saw chain tension,
loosen the allen head screws (9).
• Rotate the tension adjustment
screw (20) in the front of the
housing using the flat screwdriver
end of the wrench (11) as shown
in figure f.
• Do not over-tension the chain as
this will lead to excessive wear
and will reduce the life of the bar and chain. Overtensioning also
reduces the amount of cuts you will get per battery charge.
• Once chain tension is correct, tighten allen head screws (9).
• When the chain is new check the tension frequently (after
disconnecting battery) during the first 2 hours of use as a new chain
stretches slightly.
