for sag (Fig. 15). Release the tip of
the guide bar and turn the chain-
tensioning screw once clockwise.
Repeat this process until the sag is
eliminated.

and tighten the chain-sprocket-

correctly tensioned when there is no
sag on the underside of the guide bar and the chain is snug, but it can be turned
by hand without binding.

If the chain is too tight, it will not rotate. Loosen the chain-sprocket-cover
screw slightly and turn the tensioning screw 1/4 turn counterclockwise. Lift the tip of
the guide bar and retighten the chain-sprocket-cover screw securely. Assure that the
chain will rotate without binding.
