While lifting the chain guide, turn the content screw to apply correct tension to the chain.
Then lock the fastening nut.
Rotate the chain with your hand to check that it is turning without excessive resistance and that it
is properly tightened.
Repeat the installation if the chain is not tight.
b. Adjusting the chain tension
The tool motor must be switched off before adjusting the chain tension.
Make sure that the chain is inside the groove of the guide. Hold the guide by its tip. Adjust the
tension of the chain with the tension adjustment screw until the chain teeth touch the bottom of the
guide.
Turn the chain tension adjustment screw clockwise until the chain is tight. Do not stretch the chain
too much. Check the tension of the chain and check if the casing is properly tightened. If this is not
the case, please repeat the procedure.
