CHAIN TENSION

• 

Stop the motor and unplug from power source before setting the chain tension. Turn the bar 

cover knob counterclockwise to loosen the bar cover but do not remove the bar cover. Turn 

the chain tensioning screw clockwise to tension chain. Turn the guide bar knob clockwise to 

tighten. Refer to the replacing the bar and chain section for additional information.

• Chain must be retensioned whenever the flats on the drive links hang out of the bar groove.
• 

During normal operation, the temperature of the chain will increase. The drive links of a 

correctly tensioned warm chain will hang approximately 1/16 in. (1.3 mm) out of the bar 

groove.

NOTE: A cold chain is correctly tensioned when there is no slack on the underside of the guide bar, the chain is 
snug, but it can be turned by hand without binding.

NOTE: New chain tends to stretch; check chain tension frequently.

C A u T I O N

Chain tensioned while warm may be too tight upon cooling. Check the “cold tension” before next 

use.
