Adjusting the Chain
Tension
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
After each battery drain cycle
Ensure that the chain is properly tensioned. A loose chain will
shorten the life of the drive sprocket and the guide bar and
may break the chain. An overtightened chain will overheat
the guide bar and chain, causing rapid wear and possible
motor burnout. Also, check the chain tension after a few
cuts. A new chain usually stretches and requires adjustment
after its first use.
The chain tension is correct when you are able to use a gloved
hand to pull the chain smoothly around the guide bar. The
chain should remain in contact with the bottom edge of the
guide bar.

Contact with the chain saw teeth can cause serious
injury.
