,A_ WARNING:
Wear
protective gloves
when handling chain. The chain is sharp and
can cut you even when it is not moving.
NOTE: When adjusting chain tension,
make sure the bar nuts are finger tight only.
Attempting to tension the chain when the bar
nuts are tight can cause damage.
Checking the tension:
Use the screwdriver end of the chain adjust-
ment tool (bar tool) to move chain around
guide bar. If the chain does not rotate, it is too
tight. If the chain is too loose, it will sag below
the bar.
