Attach the chain cover to the drive unit and tighten the nuts by hand.
Lift the bar loose end and turn the chain tensioning screw by a screwdriver, so that the chain
links will touch the bottom of the bar guide groove (fig. 6).

chain tensioning frequently as a loose chain may easily come out of the guide groove or
cause its fast wear.
