NOTE: New saw chains will stretch. Check the chain
tension frequently when first used and tighten when
the chain becomes loose around the guide bar.
WARNING: ● Removing the battery pack
before adjusting saw chain tension.
● Cutting edges on chain are sharp. Use protective
gloves when handling chain.
● Maintain proper chain tension always. A loose
chain will increase 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, bar, and sprocket to wear rapidly.
1. Place the Chainsaw on any suitable flat surface.
2. Turn the chain tensioning knob clockwise until it is
hand tight.
NOTE: The tension is automatically increased
while the chain tensioning knob is being turned
in a clockwise direction. The built-in ratchet
mechanism prevents the chain tension from
loosening.
3. Tilt the saw forward (See E1) where the guide bar
tip is pushed in an downward direction. This will
remove slack from the chain.
4. Fully tighten the chain tensioning knob by turning
