- The tension of the chain is correct if the chain rests against
the bottom side of the guide bar and can still be easily
turned by hand.
- While doing so the chain brake must be released.
- Check the chain tension frequently - new chains tend to get
longer during use!
- When checking the chain tension the engine must be
switched off.
NOTE:
It is recommended to use 2-3 chains alternatively.
In order to guarantee uniform wear of the guide bar the bar
should be turned over whenever replacing the chain.
