GUIDEBAR AND DIAMOND CHAIN INSTALLATION & TENSIONING
Unpacking & Assembly
STEP 6
Check for proper tension by pulling the chain
around the bar by hand. If you cannot easily pull
by hand, the chain is too tight and needs to be
loosened slightly.
CAUTION: Be aware that the guidebar rails may
develop sharp edges over time so always pull the
diamond chain by the diamond segments.
STEP 5
Make sure all the drive links are inside the
guidebar groove then lift the bar nose and tension
the chain by turning the tensioning
screw clockwise.
