SAW CHAIN TENSION ADJUSTMENT

WARNING: Unplug Pole Saw from
power source before adjusting saw
chain tension.
WARNING: Cutting edges on chain
are sharp. Use protective gloves when
handling chain.
WARNING: Maintain proper chain
tension always. A loose chain will in-
crease the risk of kickback. A loose chain
may jump out of guide bar groove. This
may injure operator and damage chain.
A loose chain will cause chain, guide bar,
and sprocket to wear rapidly.
Note: For pre-assembled models, the saw chain
tension is properly set at factory. A new chain will
stretch. Check new chain after fi rst few minutes of
operation. Allow chain to cool down. Follow steps
below to readjust saw chain tension.
1. Before adjusting chain, make sure guide bar nut
is only finger tight (see Figure 4).

2. Insert a #1 Phillips head screwdriver or smaller
into the hole in the middle of the guide bar (see
Figure 5). Using the screwdriver, push the guide
bar away from Pole Saw motor housing to ten-
sion the chain. Note: There should be no gap
between side links of chain and bottom of guide
bar (see Figure 6).
