If you start the chain saw with a new chain, have a
test for 2-3 minutes. A new chain gets longer after the
first use, examine the tension and tighten the chain if
necessary.
10.2 ADJUST THE CHAIN TENSION
The more you use a chain the longer it becomes. It is
therefore important to adjust the chain regularly to take
up the slack.
Tension the chain so that it can only just be pulled away
from the bar at its centre point.
A slack chain may jump off and cause serious or even
fatal injury.
Wear protective gloves if you touch the chain, bar or
areas around the chain.
1. Stop the machine.
