C, CHAIN TENSION

• Correct Chain Tension is veiy im^rtant—

- A loose chain will wear the bar and itself.

- A loose chain can jump off the bar while you are

cutting

- A tight chain can break or damage the saw and/

or bar.

• Hie chain stretches during use, especially

when new. Check tension periomcally as follows:

- each time the saw is used;

- more frequently when the chain is new,

- as the ch^ warms up to normal operating

temperature.

• Chain tension is correct when the chain:

- can be lifted about 1/8'’ fix»m tbe Guide Bar at a

point near the middle of the bar and

- will move freely around the bar.

be lifted 1/4” from the ban Thei^after, follow the
