ing the chain brake nuts and turning the ad-
justing screw 1/4 of a turn while lifting up on
the bar.

Checking the tension:
Use the screwdriver end of the combination
assembly tool to move the chain around the
bar. If the chain does not rotate, it is too tight.
If too loose, the chain will sag below the bar.
WARNING:
If the saw is operated
with a loose chain, the chain could jump off
the guide bar and result in serious injury.
