With one gloved hand, check that the chain turns smoothly and is tight. Hold the chain along the top center
of the chain saw blade as shown in the picture below and lift it up to check the tension. When released, the
chain must quickly snap back into place.

If the chain is too loose or too tight, loosen the nuts before adjusting the chain tensioner. Failure to loosen
the nuts will damage the tensioner and void the warranty.
ATTENTION: A new chain will stretch when first used. Check the chain tension regularly with a
gloved hand. A loose chain can derail and wear away, as well as wear away the sword. If the chain
has to be tightened, always make sure the nuts are loosened before adjusting the chain tensioner.

ATTENTION
• Always wear safety gloves when touching the sharp side of the chain.
• Always disconnect the "spark plug wire" before touching the sharp end of the chain.

the tension every 15 minutes of use.
